This one is a giveaway. If you look across the room in class or at a party and catch her looking right at you, then she may have a crush on you. If she sees that you've noticed her staring and looks away and blushes, or gives you a little smile, then she may be acknowledging that she may like you. Just don't be too obvious about trying to catch her staring at you, or she may think that you're the one staring at her. This is another sign that she may have a crush on you. If every time you walk by or talk to her, you find her turning red or getting flustered, then this may be a sign that she likes you and is shy and embarrassed about talking to you or saying the wrong thing. If you do see her blushing, don't tease her about it or mention it, or that may scare her off from talking to you. Just make sure she's not the kind of girl who blushes whenever she talks to any guy -- she could just be shy around guys. A lot of girls giggle a lot around the guys they like because crushes make them feel a bit giddy and lightheaded just for being around the guy that they like. If you find the girl always giggling or laughing a lot around you, even if you've barely said anything funny, then she may like you. She could just be feeling giggly because she likes you, or she could really think that everything you say is funny because she has a big crush on you. Next time you talk to her, see how much she laughs. Try a small joke and see if she laughs way too much -- this may mean that she has feelings for you. A girl's friends can tell you a lot about how she feels about you without saying much. Next time the girl walks by with her friends in the halls, see if the friends giggle when they see you, elbow her, or just nod in your direction, trying to tell the girl that you're around. This is a not-so-subtle way of letting you know that the girl may have a crush on you. If the girl's friends always greet you with a knowing smile, then they may be telling you that the girl likes you. If the girl has a crush on you, then she may want...

TL;DR in Russian:

Попытайтесь поймать ее взгляд на себе. Посмотрите, смущается ли она в вашей компании. Наблюдайте, много ли она смеется рядом с вами. Присмотритесь, как реагируют друзья девушки, проходя мимо вас. Следите, ищет ли она повод побыть с вами. Отмечайте, много ли внимания она уделяет своей внешности в вашем присутствии. Читайте язык ее тела. Посмотрите, как она себя ведет с другими парнями.


This one is a no-brainer. If you want to be unique, then you can't spend all of your time with people who have nothing to offer but the same stale, boring opinions. You shouldn't ditch your entire friend group to hang out with a bunch of weirdos, either, but you should seek out people who have unique opinions and different perspectives on the world that can change your own. Original people can be found anywhere: in your own home, in your classes, or at work. Make an effort to seek out people who see the world a little differently.  When you find these people, ask them lots of questions. Understand where they are coming from. Original people aren't the ones who stand out the most or have the loudest opinions, either. You will have to get to know them. You shouldn't form radical opinions just to scare people or look like an extremist. Instead, you should do a lot of research; watch documentaries, read different types of newspapers and magazines, and talk to a variety of people before you come to your own conclusions. Then, when you feel comfortable with your original thoughts, start sharing them -- with the people who care what you think, of course.  Don't jump to conclusions and put it all out there before you can back up your thoughts. It's all about doing your research. If you go along with the mainstream about some things, that's perfectly fine. Having a "normal" opinion is better than having a radical opinion just for the sake of it. Learn to have educated debates with people instead of just arguing with them. You don't have to be stubborn to be original. In fact, truly original people are comfortable with listening to the opinions of others. Of course, this may be difficult on a limited budget, but if you have any money to spare, make an effort to see a new part of the world. If you can't afford it, travel just a few towns over or do some volunteering work in a foreign land. The important thing is that you see how other people live and see the world; bonus points if what you see is pretty different from...

TL;DR in Russian:

Общайтесь с оригинальными людьми. Задавайте вопросы провокационного характера. Как можно больше путешествуйте. Нужно знать разницу между оригинальностью и странностью. Продолжайте процесс своего превращения. Прекратите беспокоиться о чужом мнении.


This one is pretty straightforward: we need reminders to keep ourselves going. These can be people or things -- whatever might keep you in the right mindset. It's natural to get off-balance and forget where we want to be -- these external motivators offer focus and direction.  You can do a whole bunch of small things to get you in gear. Change your desktop background on your computer. Put a post-it note on your wall. A reminder on your phone. Utilize the hubbub around you and put it to your advantage. People can be motivators, too! Tell everyone you know that you're trying to lose 10 pounds. Hopefully they'll offer resources and make the path that much easier, in addition to holding you accountable. Unfortunately, people can also be demotivating. We have that friend that desperately wants us to eat another piece of cheesecake. That person is not good company. To get going on our path to success, everyone needs cheerleaders along the way! Tell your friends and family what you're trying to stay motivated with. Do you have a few close people in your network that can help you focus and stay driven? Having a mentor that's been through the same things you have will be super useful. Do you know someone who's started their own business, lost 50 pounds, or otherwise achieved their dreams? Talk to them! How do they do it? Their perseverance and display of just how doable it is may be what you need to stay energized and motivated. As you go, you're likely to get bored, antsy, or lose attention. To avoid all these pitfalls, keep learning! Spice it up! It's hard to stay motivated on anything long-term. But if the goal keeps changing, if your knowledge keeps morphing, it'll be easier. If you're aiming for weight loss, read success stories and blogs. Talk to trainers at your gym. Hit up a nutritionist. Tackle new elements (methods of training, dieting plans, etc.) one at a time. Keeping it fresh will keep your mind fresh. The best way to get demotivated and fast is to compare yourself to others. You'll never be them and...

TL;DR in Russian:

Окружите себя мотивациями. Придерживайтесь хорошей компании. Продолжайте учиться. Сравнивайте себя только с собой. Помогайте другим. Ставьте большие цели.


This one is tough, but very important. Part of the reason that you may find yourself constantly frustrated by the stupidity in the world is because you have unrealistic expectations. Different people may have different backgrounds, different opinions or different priorities in their life. Remind yourself that the "average" person isn't going to meet your high expectations of how a person should think and act, and lower your standards accordingly. If you don't expect people to be sharp, respectful people, then you'll be pleasantly surprised when they are -- instead of being constantly disappointed when they don't meet your expectations. Another way to change your approach to the persons who are frustrating you is to consider the situation from their points of view. Sure, you may think that there's only one way to view gun control, or that you just have to be right about being a vegetarian, but before you get set in your ways, make sure you have a reasonable grasp of the argument from the other side, and try to see that there really may be another side of the story. Also, seeing where the person is coming from can help you understand his or her world view -- if he grew up in a very conservative area while you grew up in Berkeley, then yeah, you're not going to see eye-to-eye on all of the issues. Both genetics and opportunities can make a difference to overall "smarts." One of the reasons some people appear smarter than others may be that they came from a hard working environment, got good marks in school, and that they started many things from scratch and/or have been  stuck having to take care of family members, working a part-time job in high school, or taking on other responsibilities that kept them from spending so much time becoming a smarty pants. On the other side we can see the people who don't appear so smart, they had difficulties to understand things so quick, even when they were kids, they never cared about education and getting good marks at school. When a stupid person frustrates you, just ask...

TL;DR in Russian:

Опустите ваши стандарты. Поймите, что у них могло не быть тех благоприятных условий или преимуществ, которые были у вас. Поймите тот факт, что вам не под силу изменить их мышление. Не судите рыбу по ее умению лазить по деревьям. Попробуйте увидеть ситуацию с другой точки зрения. Вооружитесь знаниями.


This one just requires you to have an 8oz glass or hot or cold green tea four times a day, when you first get up and before every meal. The tea will help boost antioxidants in your system and help you to feel full before meals, thus eating less.   Have more tea instead of snacking. The increase in fluids will help with your weight loss as well as not consuming so many calories from eating. Continue to drink water throughout the day. Green tea can actually dehydrate you. To avoid this, have your normal amount of water along with the tea. This is a great, easy way to get more fruits and vegetables in your diet. Find a good juicer or blender that can get the food to smoothie consistency. You may opt to only juice during this time period, or just replace a meal or two with a healthy smoothie, typically breakfast and lunch. Try and keep this diet up for a week.  Make sure to not just focus on fruits, but also vegetables. Leafy ones like kale and spinach work well. Add an apple to sweeten your smoothies if you do not want an all vegetable one. Have a healthy dinner of raw veggies and lean meats. It would be counterproductive to binge on unhealthy food during this time. If you find you are hungry have more juice, water, or a snack like almonds or dried fruit to curb your hunger. This entails mostly unprocessed eating foods that are free of preservatives and additives. Incorporate fresh vegetables, fruits, and organic foods, and staying away from anything artificial such as sweeteners and dyes. This will ensure that you are eating food in its most natural state, which is the healthiest for you.  Always read the label to check for ingredients. If you can’t pronounce something, look it up. It might be the technical term for something well-known and not harmful. If the ingredient list is overrun with items that are not recognizable, avoid buying it. Shop at whole food markets or farmer’s markets. These are the best places to find food that is closest to its natural state. Grow your own produce. There’s nothing more...

TL;DR in Russian:

Попробуйте диету на зеленом чае. Попробуйте соковую диету. Введите в рацион больше чистых продуктов. Внесите изменения в образ жизни, которые сделают его более здоровым.


This one toes the line. You want to be confident, not cocky. You want to be honest, but not hurtful. And you want to be cheeky, but not rude. Cheeky is when you say something where the words might be a little brash, but you say it with a smile on your face, and you don't actually mean anything by it. It's a spice of attitude thrown in the mix! It's a pretty common term in British English; its closest American equivalent? A sassy smart-ass.  So the next time your friend texts you, "Hey, can I come over and play with your ferret?" and you're sick and tired of your friend's typos, instead of responding with "Okay!" you opt for, "What?! I am a ferret?! RUDE." Being cheeky. When Shayla says she's leaving your party to go to a cooler one, you tell her she might want to change first, so her shirt matches her shoes. Again -- it's with a coy smile and a laugh -- not a snip-snap, hair-tossed retort full of vitriol. It's just that when someone else wants to say something a little less than tactful, you show that you can be a little less than tactful, too. Play the game, baby! Our buddy William Shakespeare said it best when he said, "I'd challenge you to a battle of wits, but I see you are unarmed." Comebacks are sassy when they're disguised as a statement of fact or a question, as opposed to stating your opinion. They're nicer on the outside than they are on the inside. Instead of saying, "Oi! Shut up!" You say, "Is your name Kanye West? It's not? Then stop interrupting me." Kind of like that. Or, next time your friend is talking about how awesome they are, you say, "I'd like to agree with you, but I don't want to be wrong." Zing! . If there's one thing that's true of all sassy girls, it's that they're confident. It takes knowing and loving yourself to have that gusto to do your own thing, to speak your mind, to not have the personality of a wilting wallflower. So to empower your inner sass, grab that confident girl within you and let her out! Because she's freaking cool. If being confident sounds like a challenge to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте немного развязны. Отвечайте быстро. Будьте уверенной в себе Будьте забавной Будьте честны Будьте более энергичны


This only takes a second, and should be done often. If you're hunched over and burning perilously close to your belly, chances are it's going to be much harder to burn. Burn over the outlines of your design first to get them set. Some woods give off more smoke than others, smoke which can be breathed in and become irritating to your lungs. To counteract this, put on a fan if you're working in an enclosed area.

This operation has two gears on it. Add it to your program and then configure the settings. Use the ports that are connected to the tires to move your robot. If you've connected the wheels to ports B and C, make sure the Move is set to use ports B and C.  Move forward or backward, or stop altogether, by setting the direction. Turn using the steering controls. Move forward for a set number of rotations, a certain amount of time, or a number of degrees. Or set the duration to "Unlimited" to have your robot move until it receives a command, later in the program, to stop. In the Shooterbot tutorial, your shooter plugs into port A. To control this, use a Motor operation (depicted by just one gear) that activates port A. Configure the settings to control the precise operation of this motor by setting the direction (forward, backward, or stopped), action, power level, and duration of the motion.  Unchecking "Wait for Completion" allows the robot to begin executing the next commands in your program before completing the motion controlled by the Motor operation. This can allow your robot, for instance, to move and shoot at the same time. The Motor command will execute any operation performed by the motor it controls. Build your robot such that the motor lifts up a tray, shoots a ball, turns the robot, or anything else you can think of. This command allows for creativity and flexibility in your robot's performance; take advantage of it. Hook up ultrasonic, touch, and color sensors to the intelligent chip's ports, and use them to sense light, color, sound, and touch. Your robot can also keep track of time and rotation. These sensors allow your program to perform actions only when they are activated. For instance, you could have a program say "Red" when it detects the color red, but not when it detects the color blue. These can include turning on or off a colored light, playing sound from a sound file, displaying an image or text on the intelligent brick's screen, or sending a message over Bluetooth.

TL;DR in Russian:

Заставьте вашего робота двигаться с помощью операции «Move» (движение). Воплотите другие операции, такие как стрельба, используя команду «Motor». Используйте датчики, чтобы дать возможность вашему роботу взаимодействовать с окружающей средой. Используйте операцию действия (action), чтобы заставить вашего робота выполнить какое-то действие.


This option can be a little risky, since he can call it right then and see if it is actually your number. However, it can be a way to get someone to stop asking you out in an indirect way.  Also, make sure the number you're giving isn't someone else's number. You can look up most numbers online to see if they connect to a person. You don't want to be giving out a person's number to a stranger. If you happen to run into him again and he asks you about it, just ask to see the number, then say "Whoops! Wow, I spaced out. I totally wrote down one of the numbers wrong." And when he asks for the number again you can do the same thing. (If you're going to see him more than twice, it's best to just tell the truth.) Some hotlines have been designed specifically for rejecting guys. Others are just a silly way to give a fake number. Either way, you can use these numbers to hand out to the guys you meet so you don't have to give your number. Another option is the rejection line. It explains to the guy that you've given him a false number as a way of rejecting him with a bit of humor thrown in. The number is (605) 475-6968. Another option is to take a guy friend with you when you're out who's willing to pretend to be your boyfriend. That way, if you need to reject someone, you can use him as a decoy. You could say, "Oh, I would if I were single, but I'm here with my boyfriend." It helps to grab your decoy boyfriend's arm at this point.

TL;DR in Russian:

Оставьте парню фальшивый номер. Оставьте парню номер горячей линии. Попросите друга сыграть роль вашего парня.


This option depends on physically removing the lice using a comb with narrow teeth. The advantage is that it is chemical-free; however, it is extremely time consuming and labor intensive. This could be an option for a short-haired Chihuahua but is impractical for a Bernese Mountain dog.  Lice and nit combs are best used as an aid to getting rid of lice, rather than a solo strategy. You need to be 100% certain you have combed the entire dog and gotten into all the nooks and crannies. It's very important to focus a lot of your attention on the armpits, groin, and ears. Lice also cling onto hair pretty tightly, so it's possible to comb the entire dog and not remove all the lice. Repeated daily combing is necessary for several weeks (around 4 - 6 weeks) in order to catch and remove nymphs as they hatch out from eggs. Kill the lice you have removed by immersing them in boiling water for a few minutes. Many flea shampoos containing pyrethroids or organophosphates are effective against lice when backed up with a nit comb directly after the bath. However, the treatment does not continue working once it is dry, and no shampoo can penetrate the eggs, so expect the next generation of lice to hatch out within 2 - 4 weeks. Thus regular weekly shampooing is required for at least 6 weeks. Follow the manufacturer's directions carefully. This is especially important with regard to how long the product needs to stay in contact with the skin before being thoroughly rinsed off. Not sticking to the recommended contact time can lead to lack of effectiveness. There are no parasitic products that are licensed to kill lice in dogs however several are known to be effective. These include products containing fipronil (Frontline, Effipro) Permethrin, Phosmet, fenthion, and selamectin (Revolution US, Advantage UK). However, be aware that while most of these products have directions for monthly application when treating lice application every two weeks is advisable. This is because there is a drop-off in effectiveness after 2 weeks. Since...

This option is great if you don’t have much money, and often, your girlfriend will value it more if it you made it. Making a gift takes more time and effort than just buying something online, but it doesn't need to take days. Plus, you know it will be unique. Don't worry, you don't have to be Van Gogh to make a beautiful gift she'll love. Since most photos are on the computer or phone these days, actually giving her physical photos can be nice. You can either put photos in a simple scrapbook or frame several photos of you two together. Whether she loves tea or hot cocoa, try putting together a little kit of her favorite beverage. For instance, for hot cocoa, you could make a homemade cocoa mix with little packets of marshmallows and several small bottles of Bailey's on the side. If she likes tea, try making an arrangement of all her favorites, plus some fancy honey. Include a fancy mug to top it off. If your girl loves to soak in the tub, making bath bombs will be perfect for her. Pick an essential oil she'll love to scent them, and she'll be in bliss.  To make a bath bomb, simply mix 2 cups of cornstarch with 1 cup of citric acid, and 1 3/4 a cup of baking soda by shaking it through a sieve.  Fill up small spray bottles with water. If you want to color you bath fizzies, add 6 drops of food coloring.  Measure out 1 cup of powered mixture. Use the spray bottles to add small amounts of water to the powder. Mix it up after each spray. The mixture is ready when it holds together when squeezed.  Add in the essential oil. For an essential oil with a heavy fragrance (such as peppermint), add 5 drops; use 6 if it's lighter (such as lemon). Stir the fragrance in. Put the mixture in small baking molds, preferably ones that hold about 1/4 cup, enough for one bath. If smaller, use two bath bombs per bath. Repeat for the rest of the dry mixture.

This outdoor fly repellent can be placed in the center of your patio table to repel flies throughout the day and evening. It's a simple mix of essential oils and a carrier oil that will help diffuse the scent into the air, naturally keeping flies away. Here's what you'll need:  A small tin with a lid. A small coffee can, mint tin or cough drop tin would work. A clean piece of cloth or a dish sponge. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. 2 tablespoons witch hazel (or vodka, if you don't have witch hazel). 100 drops essential oils. Several essential oils have properties that keep flies away. They also work well on mosquitoes and other pests. Essential oils can be found at health food stores or ordered in bulk online. You can use 100 drops of the same oil, or a blend of any of the following:   Lavender oil - lavender is considered to be particularly effective against flies. It has many other household uses as well.    Citronella oil - this ingredient is commonly used in candles meant to keep flies and other bugs away.   Eucalyptus oil - another great essential oil you can use around the house for all types of purposes.   Peppermint oil - this is likely more effective against mosquitoes  but also considered to work against horse flies. Pour all of the ingredients together into a bowl, and stir until combined. Diluting the essential oils will keep them from immediately evaporating and help them diffuse into the air.  All essential oils should be diluted before use; especially if you want to apply them directly to your skin. Use an extra 1/2 teaspoon of vodka in the mixture will help preserve it for a second use. Place the cloth in the tin and pour the mixture inside so that it completely saturates the cloth or sponge. Place the cloth in the tin and shut the lid. Allow to sit for 24 hours. Whenever you need to use the tin, remove the lid and place on the entertaining table. Make as many as you wish to put around the entertaining area to deter flies. Once open to the air, the strength weakens and needs to be topped up....

This paper lantern is simple and fun to make. It's made entirely out of paper, which makes it an easy and inexpensive craft. Here's what you'll need:  2 sheets of paper (1 red and 1 yellow, same size) Scissors Ruler Pencil String Glue, tape, or stapler Hole puncher Gold glitter, sequins, gold paint, etc (optional) Red/yellow paper streamers (optional) Place the yellow paper down on the table in front of you, so that one of the long edges are parallel to the edge of the table. Use your ruler and pencil to draw two strips along the long edge of the paper. Cut those strips out with a pair of scissors. Set the two strips aside. Take the two short sides of the yellow paper, and bring them together to form a tube. Overlap them by 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) and secure them. You can use glue, tape, or a stapler. Set the yellow tube aside. Place the red paper down on the table in front of you and bring the two long edges together. Flatten the paper so that you end up with a long, skinny rectangle. The folded part of the rectangle should be facing you. Make sure that the folded edge of the rectangle is facing you. Then, use your ruler and pencil to draw a straight line across the rectangle. This will be your cutting guide. You will be cutting towards this line in a latter step. They need to be 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) apart, and going from the folded edge up to the horizontal guide line you just drew. Stop when you get to the horizontal guide line. Do not cut past this line, or your lantern will fall apart. You will end up with something that looks like a fringe. Bring the two short edges together to form a tube. Overlap the edges by 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) and secure them. You can use glue, tape, or a stapler. The yellow tube will be a little bit shorter than the red tube. This is good. Squash the red tube until the top and bottom edges of both tubes line up. Secure them together. You can use glue, tape, or a stapler. Overlap the edges by 1 inch (2.54 centimeters). Try to align the seam with the seam on the red...

This part is a bit less about actually saving for a car and more about helping you save. Even if you know what kind of car you want, and how much you need to save, it’s nice to keep tabs on deals from different dealerships and see what your best financing options are. Actually go look at the vehicle you’re saving up for. Seeing it in person will make it more tangible and give you the motivation to stay diligent in your saving. Take it for a test drive. Actually experience what it feels like to drive the car. This will not only help you to know if this is truly the car for you, but it will also help you to keep from unnecessary spending. When you’re tempted to buy that new outfit, or go out to eat, remember how you felt driving your car. Find several dealers around town who offer the make and model you’re looking for and get a quote. Be honest with them that you’re shopping around and that you've have been talking to other dealers to get the best price. Dealers want to sell their cars and if they know there’s competition you can find a great quote.  Don’t let a lower quote affect your savings plan. You might find a cheaper deal on the car you want, but that doesn't mean you should save less. Any extra money you save will ensure everything goes smoothly. Having some extra cash will allow you to make a larger down payment. Prepare you for any possible repairs, or even buy you those first couple tanks of gas. There are several ways to not only calculate expenses but to also help you with getting a great deal and knowing what your best options are. Some sites have plenty of other helpful tips to ensure that once you’ve done all that hard work of saving, you get the great car you deserve.

This part of the taming process involves both of your hands, so it will be easier to remove your budgie from their cage. You can choose a neutral room that he has become used to, such as the bathroom,  or they can stay in the same room as their cage. Teaching your budgie to step up will be easier to do when you are sitting down. Sit down slowly and gently so as not to startle your budgie or cause them to fly off your finger. Use gentle pressure against their chest just as you did when you initially taught your budgie how to step onto your index finger. Push up against their chest as you say ‘step up.’ Keep doing this until your budgie steps up onto your finger. Consider making this a daily activity. Soon it will become a habit for your budgie.  Your budgie may not be familiar with this verbal cue, so it may take a few tries before they understand that they should step up onto your other index finger. Give him a small treat each time he steps up. As with the other aspects of the taming process, you should practice this several times a day in short sessions (10-15 minutes). Stepping up usually comes naturally to budgies, so it probably won’t take very long for them to learn how to do this on your index fingers.

TL;DR in Russian:

Научите попугая перебираться на второй указательный палец. Сядьте в кресло, на пол или на кровать. Приложите к груди попугая указательный палец второй руки и слегка надавите, как когда учили его забираться на палец. Тренируйтесь до тех пор, пока попугай не научится все делать самостоятельно.


This part won’t be easy, but you have to do it right if you want to move on. It’s time to go through your room, or even your home, and to get rid of all the things that remind you of the man. This could mean the teddy bear he got you at the carnival, the t-shirt of his you love sleeping in, or even the necklace he gave you on your anniversary. If you have an item that is truly valuable to you, then you should put it out for a long time if you just can’t bring yourself to throw it out.  This may be painful, and it won’t hurt to have the help of a trusted friend when you go through this. Just remember that it’s like ripping off a Band Aid: the sooner you do it, the sooner the pain will be gone. If your room is covered with things that remind you of your man, then you won’t be able to move on as quickly because you’ll have more reason to subconsciously think of him. In today’s world, social media may be the way that you keep up with your ex the most after the relationship is over. You may tell yourself that you’re not really staying in touch with him if all you do is longingly scroll through his Twitter feed or check his Facebook photos for evidence of a new girlfriend, but really, this is just adding insult to injury. Make sure you’re no longer friends, followers, or associated in any way on social media, so you’re not stuck looking at a picture of your ex all day instead of moving on. Don’t worry about him being upset if you defriend him or no longer want to be in touch on social media. This is about you feeling better, not about him. Take your mind off of your own problems and channel all of your energy productively by helping out your community. You’ll be doing a good deed, getting out of the house, and learning from people who can also benefit from your help. You’ll build your confidence and will feel better about yourself once you see that you really are needed, and that you are able to make a difference. Being part of a community of volunteers can also make you feel more connected and less alone after...

TL;DR in Russian:

Чувствуйте себя счастливой в своем одиночестве. Не спешите вступать в новые отношения. Сконцентрируйтесь на своем персональном развитии.

This particular value is deceptively named. Contrary to first impression, this number must be expressed as decimal for your calculation to be correct, and is based off of standard gauge thickness. If your bend allowance calculation seems off, a likely place you have made a mistake is with your bend angle. If you are attempting to bend at an angle less or greater than 90°, it is necessary that you take the complementary angle to that of your desired bend. For example: if your desire bend is 45°, you will subtract this number from 180°, which will give you a bend angle of 135°. The pressure you will be applying to bend your sheet metal will be significant. If you do not have a vise up to the challenge, or if you have not secured your vise sufficiently, your forms may slip, or you may bend your sheet metal in a way you hadn't intended. This should be done with extreme caution and care. In the event that you are bending a thick piece of sheet metal, you can apply heat from a blowtorch along the seam of your bend line to facilitate your bend. Keep in mind that many kinds of fabricated metal have extremely high melting points, and applying your torch injudiciously could cause damage or do harm to your sheet metal or equipment.

This pasta with tomato cream sauce (i.e. red and white sauce) is delicious and easy to prepare. The overall prep time for this meal is approximately 40 minutes. This recipe will serve 6-8.  2 tablespoons butter; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 4 cloves garlic, minced; 1 medium onion, finely diced; Two 15-ounce cans tomato sauce or marinara sauce; Dash of sugar (or more to taste); Salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste); 1 1/2 pounds fettuccine; 1 cup heavy cream; Grated parmesan or romano, as needed; Chopped fresh basil, for serving (optional). Mince 4 cloves of garlic and finely dice 1 medium onion. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions to the skillet. Sauté for approximately 1 minute. Pour the tomato sauce (or marinara sauce) into the skillet. Add a dash of sugar. Add a pinch of salt and pepper (to taste) and stir. Cook the red sauce over low heat for about 25 to 30 minutes. Be sure to stir occasionally. Cook the pasta according to the directions on the package (different brands vary) then carefully drain. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water. You might need to use this later to thin the sauce out. To remove from heat, carefully slide your skillet over to an unused burner on your stove. Stir in 1 cup of heavy whipping cream. Add the cheeses (to taste). Dip a spoon in and taste a little to gauge the seasoning (add more, if needed). If the consistency is thicker than you’d like, add a little of the reserved pasta water, then stir again. If you’re satisfied, add the chopped basil (optional) and serve immediately. Have additional Romano and Parmesan cheeses on the dining table so that everyone can add to taste, if they wish.

This pattern involves rows of tiles lined up like a checkerboard. Every-other tile is the same color, but the rows and columns are aligned in straight lines. You can pick any two colors to achieve this pattern, so don't be afraid to get creative. This is one of the easiest patterns to create, but it can look busy if the room is already full of designs and colors. Create an imaginary vertical line in the center of the pattern  and organize the other tiles on this line. Place tiles of the same color along the line in each row so that the vertical line is going between two tiles, or it goes through the center of one tile.  Overall, the appearance is that each tile is offset slightly but creates a staggered line. This is the pattern used for laying bricks and the popular "subway tile" pattern. This is an extremely simple design that makes hanging the tile and applying grout extremely simple. Just align rectangular tiles so that they form straight lines vertically and horizontally in the space.  This pattern can have a stunning effect when done in large scales because it looks so natural and clean. If you're using tiles with one color, this is a great choice for making a bold statement. Lay out the tiles on the ground in your desired pattern with grout spacers in between them, and then measure the width of the wall. Compare the width to the width of the tiles, and then mark which ones will need to be trimmed with a wax crayon. Consider shifting your pattern slightly if you need to trim any of the pieces to be smaller than 2 inches (5.1 cm) wide. It will likely be too difficult to cut these accurately with a wet saw or nippers.

This person clearly never appreciated you in all your glory in the first place -- so they're not worth your time. Not "Are they worth your time?" or "Maybe they're not worth your time," but they are 100% no-ifs-ands-or-buts-about-it not worth your time. You deserve someone who sees you, sees your value, and wants to be an active part of your life. Those that don't can hit the road.  Take a moment to concentrate on self-awareness. Look at yourself as objectively as possible. Was there something about the relationship that was safe because it was unreal? Does the guarantee that you'll never get hurt because there's zero commitment reassure you? If this even touches on the truth, this has all to do with you and nothing to do with this other person. They're just a symbol you've placed meaning onto. Whether you're the other (wo)man or this is just an intense crush, were you as happy as you could be with this person? Odds are you probably weren't and were longing for the relationship like the one you have in your head. How much was reality and how much of it was wishing, hoping, and projecting?  Clearly this relationship didn't meet your needs, or you wouldn't feel the need to let them go. Know that. Let it sink in. This didn't meet your needs, but another one will. The only thing is that in order to find that other one, you need to let go of this one. Well, that's what you're here for! Step one? Check. Life is too short not to start living now. This other person has been out living, so why don't you take a leaf out of their book and do the same? It's only fair. This doesn't mean jumping into a new relationship -- but it does mean staying social and trying your hardest to enjoy yourself.  Don't wait around in hopes things will change. You'll be waiting for an awfully, awfully long time. Generally speaking, the best way to predict future behavior is to look at past behavior. Since past behavior has led to heartbreak, why would future behavior be any different? That's right; it wouldn't. Chances are there's a part of...

TL;DR in Russian:

This person is required to go along with the act and appear to be clueless as to how you did it. They are crucial for the trick.  Explain in detail the trick to them and their role to see if they're willing. Location is an important aspect of every magic trick. If you're performing in your house, find a location with long curtains. You could also use a location with a door nearby. Explain the lowdown of the trick's entirety to your volunteer. Go through a few practice runs of where she'll hide and when she'll hide. Prepare trigger words like "kazaa" or "presto" to indicate when your volunteer hides and when she reappears. Run a simulation of the trick with your volunteer so that you're both on the same page. Set up a performance space in front of the location you've decided on. Set up chairs at a vantage point that blinds them for the behind the scenes activity. Gather willing people to be part of your audience. It may be best to practice this trick in your home to your family. Make sure the blanket is long enough so that it covers her feet. Immediately after you've secured the blanket, your volunteer should make her move and hide. Silence is key to being believable. Say your first trigger word once you've secured the blanket. This will let your volunteer know it's time to hide. Count in your head to 5 while they silently hide. Talk to the audience briefly as your volunteer hides. This will give off the impression that less time has passed. Don't take too long or else your audience may suspect something. After giving your volunteer around five seconds to hide, show your audience the empty space. Announce to the audience that your volunteer has disappeared. Once you've secured the blanket up a second time, say your other trigger word. This will signal for your volunteer to resume her original position. Make small talk until she is back in place. This should take about 5 seconds or less. Keep a calm demeanor while holding up the blanket. It's up to you if you want to say magic words for her to reappear. This is...

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите добровольца. Найдите место, где можно скрыться. Подготовьте добровольца. Подготовьте зрителей. Удерживайте простынь перед добровольцем. Скажите волшебные слова. Опустите простынь. Снова поднимите простынь. Опустите простынь.


This person might “bump into you” in the halls between classes or make a point to speak to you each time they see you. If they go out of their way to say hello or to speak to you, this can indicate interest. Watch for the person making excuses to be near you and spend time with you. For example, they might be eager to offer you a ride home or to walk you to class. Someone who’s interested in you might touch your hand or arm as you speak or touch the small of your back as they move behind you. Touching is a way to get close to you and show interest. Eye contact while touching you is a good sign that they’re interested, especially if they smile. The person may ask if you just got a haircut, got new shoes, or tried something different with your makeup. Someone who is interested in you will pay more attention to small details. If they comment about something, take this as a good sign. For example, they might say, “That’s a nice shirt. Is it new?” Someone who’s interested in you might start mirroring your gestures, posture, or body position. Mirroring shows that they feel connected and likely attracted to you. Notice if the person started out sitting or standing in one way and later looks more similar to yourself. Change your body position and notice if theirs changes as well. Some people choose to be indirect in showing that they’re interested and may send some mixed signals. For example, they might wait to text you back or not really appear to be interested in you. While manipulative, this is one way that some people show interest. It’s up to you, however, to respond in a way that is acceptable to you. If you like it when someone plays hard to get, play along. If you don’t like it, move on.

TL;DR in Russian:

Человек изо всех сил старается проводить время с вами? Он слегка касается вас? Он замечает небольшие изменения? Он сидит или стоит в той же позе, что и вы? Играет ли человек в недотрогу?


This person will have access to your lawn, and in some cases, your house (if you need indoor plants watered). Make sure that you trust this person. If this person is watering indoor plants, remember to leave behind a spare key so that they will have access to your plants. Do not ask someone who lives far away, or for whom getting to your place would be a big deal or hassle. Try to keep the visits to a minimum. Someone might be willing to visit your place once or twice a week, but they might not be willing to visit it every single day, especially if your home is out of the way for them. Consider using some homemade watering systems as well. This way, your plants will rely on the homemade watering systems, and all your neighbor will have to do is refill the bottles when they get empty. This will be easier for your neighbor to keep track of. For example, you can keep all of the succulents in 1 area, and the ivies in another. To keep your house clean, consider storing the plants on a tray. Be detailed, but not complex, and do not make assumptions. Your friend or neighbor may not have the same gardening skills as you do. What might seem like basic information to you might not even cross your friend or neighbor's mind.  An example of specific watering instructions would include: Give this plant ½ cup (120 milliliters) of water every Saturday evening.  An example of specific care instructions would include: Tip the excess water out of the basil  dish daily. Watering your plants will reduce the amount of work or visits your plant sitter has to do. Checking your plants for pests or disease will ensure that they are healthy during your trip. If your plants succumb to pests or disease while you are away, your friend or neighbor might be at a loss of what to do. If your plants die while under their care, they may feel guilty! Even if you know that your friend or neighbor will say "no," it would still be polite to offer. This will reassure your friend or neighbor that you aren't just using them. They will also be more...

This personality system is based on research by the psychologist Carl Jung and is widely used. The Myers-Briggs categorizes personality along four dimensions. Each dimension has two opposite preferences associated with it. Combining your preference from each of the four dimensions will define your personality according to one of 16 possible types.  The four dimensions are: introversion/extraversion (I/E); sensing/intuition (S/N); thinking/feeling (T/F); and judging/perceiving (J/P). Compare your personal list of traits to your preferences on each of the four dimensions on the Myers-Briggs. For example, does your list indicate you are more of an ‘I’ or an ‘E’? Do you have more words related to thinking or feeling? You might, for instance, be a ISFP (introverted, sensing, feeling, perceiving) personality based on the traits on your list. With this system of personality classification you define yourself according to nine different personality types. Although there is usually some overlap between the nine personality types within a person, most people are more similar to one type than the other eight.  Evaluate your list of traits to see if they can be described by one of the nine types of personality according to the Enneagram system. Look for clues that you are mostly a: reformer, helper, achiever, individualist, investigator, loyalist, enthusiast, challenger, or peacemaker. For example, if you see traits on your list like: mediator, problem-solver, and diplomatic you may be a peacemaker. Visit http://www.enneagraminstitute.com to learn more about using this personality classification system. You can use this system to define your personality along four temperaments or types: the guardian, artisan, idealist, or rational. Similar to the Myers-Briggs and the Big Five, there is a great deal of research related to the Keirsey system.  Use your list of traits to help you determine which of the four personality types, or temperaments, is most like you. For example, do you have traits on your personal list like...

This phrase is a polite command that translates to "sleep well." Use it primarily with children, family, and close friends. Conjugate the verb dormir depending on the person you're addressing.  Tú: "Que duermas bien." Usted: "Que duerma bien." Vosotros: "Que durmáis bien." Ustedes: "Que duerman bien." Particularly if you're telling someone to "sleep well" and intend it more as an instruction (for example to a child), this phrase is appropriate.  Tú: "¡Duerme bien!" Usted: "¡Duerma bien!" Ustedes: "¡Duerman bien!" This phrase is used to mean "sweet dreams," although the literal translation is something like "that you might have sweet dreams."  This phrase typically is only used for children – occasionally for younger siblings or significant others. Since the phrase is only used familiarly, you only need the familiar conjugations of the verb tener. Use tengas if you're addressing one person, and tengáis if you're addressing several people. You also can shorten the phrase and simply say "dulces sueños," or "sweet dreams." This phrase, typically only used with children, means "dream with the little angels."  This phrase uses the verb soñar ("to dream"), which is conjugated irregularly. However, since it's only used for children, the familiar conjugations are the only ones you need to know: sueñes (singular) and soñéis" (plural).  You can also say this in the command form: "Sueña con los angelitos."

TL;DR in Russian:

Скажите: Используйте фразу "duerme bien" (ду-эр-мэ бьен). Пожелайте кому-нибудь: Попробуйте фразу "que sueñes con los angelitos" (ке су-энь-ес кон лос ан-хэ-ли-тос).

This pipe is considered "pure" because all you need to make it is an apple and stick-like device, such as a pen, with a tip sharp enough to poke a hole in the apple.  Make sure the apple you use is fresh. A soft apple could collapse while you're trying to bore the holes. It's ideal to use the type of ball-point pen with a tip you can unscrew so you can take out the ink well. Otherwise, you may spill ink all over the apple. Once you take out the ink well, screw the tip back on. Don't use a pencil. It's likely to break inside the apple while you're trying to make a hole with it.

This plant (considered to be a weed) has traditionally been used to relieve swelling and pain. Apply shepherd's purse essential oil to the area where you're feeling hernia pain. You could also purchase shepherd's purse supplements to take it orally. Always follow the manufacturer's dosing instructions. Studies have shown that shepherd's purse is an anti-inflammatory. It can also prevent infection. If you're experiencing nausea, vomiting, and reflux caused by your hernia, drink a ginger tea. Ginger is anti-inflammatory and soothes the stomach. Steep ginger tea bags or cut up 1 teaspoon of fresh ginger. Steep the fresh ginger in boiling water for 5 minutes. It's especially helpful to drink ginger tea about half an hour before eating. It's also safe for pregnant and nursing women.  Consider drinking fennel tea to settle your stomach and reduce the acid in your stomach. Crush up a teaspoon of fennel seeds and steep them in a cup of boiling water for 5 minutes. Drink 2 to 3 cups a day. You can also drink powdered or prepared mustard dissolved in water or drink chamomile tea. All of these are anti-inflammatory and can calm your stomach by reducing acid. Look for licorice root (deglycyrrhizinated licorice root) in chewable tablet form. Licorice root has been shown to heal the stomach while controlling hyperacidity. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions. This usually means taking 2 or 3 tablets every 4 to 6 hours.  Be aware that licorice root can cause a lack of potassium in your body, which can lead to heart arrhythmias. Talk to your doctor if you take large quantities of licorice or use it for more than two weeks. Slippery elm is another herbal supplement to try as a drink or tablet. It coats and soothes irritated tissues and is safe to use during pregnancy. If you have severe reflux, you might try drinking apple cider vinegar. Some believe that the extra acid will tell your body to reduce its own acid production in a process called feedback inhibition although more research is needed. Mix 1 tablespoon...

This powdery substance is actually food-grade, and it's used to kill anything that crawls. It's made out of ground-up fossilized material, and the sharp edges of each individual grain puncture insects' exoskeletons and cause them to die without causing any harm to humans or pets.  Sprinkle the substance in your cabinets, along baseboards, and anywhere else you'd like before you go to bed. In the morning, vacuum up the powder (and along with it, the silverfish). Wear a mask when you're sprinkling the powder, since it can irritate your lungs. This is another natural substance that kills both silverfish and their eggs. Sprinkle it along baseboards, under the bathtub, and in other areas where you see silverfish signs. Be careful not to inhale boric acid when you apply it, since it's toxic to the lungs. Avoid using it where your household pets might get into it, too. This chemical kills silverfish when you spray it along baseboards and into cracks, as well as other places where silverfish lurk. Do not apply this in your kitchen cabinets or near food sources, and don't apply it where children and pets hang out, since it's toxic. Silverfish are repelled by the smell of cedar, so you can keep them away by sprinkling it around areas where they live. Since cedar shavings can make a bit of a mess, use them in outdoor areas, basements, and other places where you don't mind having wood shavings lying around. Vacuum them up and replace them every week or so. Silverfish don't like the smell of spices, so making up little sachets of cloves, cinnamon, and other strong-smelling spices and placing them in your kitchen cabinets is a great, safe way to keep them away from your food. Both of these scents are also effective in repelling silverfish, and they're completely nontoxic to humans, of course. Get some lemon or lavender essential oil from a health food store. Dilute with water and shake the solution up in a spray bottle and spray liberally in all areas where you don't want silverfish. These sprays are great for closets,...

TL;DR in Russian:

Насыпьте диатомит в шкафы и другие темные места. Борная кислота. Купите спрей, в котором содержится жидкий пиретрин. Посыпьте места их обитания цедровой стружкой. В кухонном шкафчике используйте сухие духи специи. Цитрусовый или лавандовый спрей.


This powerful symbol is present during most black magic rituals. It is traditionally drawn in the ground using a wand hewn from a hazel tree. You may use a stick or another implement to draw the symbol if Hazelwood isn't available. Choose a strategic location that will give your spell the best chance to work.   Spirits will have a harder time visiting a location that's populated by a lot of people, so choose a place in the woods or another area not frequently visited. Graveyards are a classic place to choose if you're planning on conjuring the dead. Once inside, gather your concentration and energy. You will need all the energy within you to complete the spell. Don't let yourself get distracted. Each spell has different words of power that are recited to achieve the outcome you want. If you are summoning a demon or some other spirit, you must learn its true name before the spell will work. There is no one spell that will work to bring true love, give you immortality, and so on. Do research to find a spell, or write your own if you'd like. A grimoire is a sort of textbook for spells, with instructions on how to use black magic. If your spell works, the outcome you desire will take effect. Prepare for this, and also prepare for the evil that may come.  If you have summoned a demonic beast or spirit, treat it with respect. These creatures do not necessarily have loyalty to their summoner.

TL;DR in Russian:

Нарисуйте круг с магической фигурой внутри. Шагните в круг силы. Произнесите слова силы, связанные с вашим заклинанием. Пишите заклинание в гримуаре. Будьте готовы к результатам.


This practice establishes a healthy root system. There is no standard answer to how often to water mature succulents. This will depend on the plant variety, the soil, the ambient humidity, and other factors. Generally, you should water more often in the summer when the plant is actively growing than in the winter when the plant goes into semi-dormancy with shorter days. Sometimes it is beneficial to skip watering for 1-2 days after the soil is dry to allow even stronger roots to grow. Contrary to popular belief, you don't always have to stick to the same watering schedule for mature succulents. Still, it is good to have a general schedule.

TL;DR in Russian:

При помощи лейки поливайте растения так, чтобы почва полностью пропиталась водой. Прежде чем поливать снова, подождите, пока почва полностью высохнет. Периодически пропускайте полив, чтобы создать жизнеспособную корневую систему.


This practice is especially common for flavoring plain water and tea. The juice from one or two wedges is usually enough for most individuals, but you may want to consider adding additional juice if you prefer a stronger, more refreshing flavor. Fresh cut fruit discolors due to a process called oxidation. The vitamin C or ascorbic acid found in lemon juice chemically reacts with the oxygen in the air to prevent fruits from oxidizing. Brushing your cut fruits with a little lemon juice will maintain their color for much longer. You can also dip the cut fruit into a mixture made with 1 cup (250 milliliters) of water and 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) of lemon juice to accomplish the same task.    Like fresh fruits, fresh vegetables are also prone to oxidation. As a result, their colors dull. Squeeze a little lemon juice over your fresh vegetables and toss to mix in order to keep the colors bright. A simple dressing, known as vinaigrette, uses vinegar and olive oil. Instead of using vinegar, however, you can use lemon juice for an extra tangy taste. Try combining 1/4 cup olive oil with about 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of lemon juice to start. You can use more lemon juice for a stronger taste, or you can cut back on the sourness by mixing in 1 teaspoon (4.8 grams) of sugar or honey. You can also enhance the taste of the dressing by adding salt and pepper to taste, or other herbs and spices.  Aside from standard green salads, you can use a lemon juice dressing to coat cooked vegetables, cold cooked pasta, and more. For tossed salads, you may want to consider drizzling the oil and lemon juice over the salad separately. You can also combine the two into a single dressing, but combining them can cause leafy salads to get damp quickly if the dressing is used in abundance. Boil the rice in water and squeeze in 1 teaspoon to 3 tablespoons (5 to 45 milliliters) of lemon juice. If you want the fluffiness lemon juice provides while minimizing the amount of lemon taste that comes through, stick with 1 teaspoon (5...

TL;DR in Russian:

Освежите напиток, выжав в него небольшое количество лимонного сока. Вы можете защитить срез фруктов от потемнения при помощи лимона. Овощи останутся свежими в течение более длительного времени, если вы сбрызните их лимонным соком. Приправьте ваши салаты лимонным соком. Ваш рис станет более воздушным, если вы добавите лимонный сок в воду, в которой он готовится. Сократите количество используемой соли, заменяя ее лимонным соком. Сделайте соус с лимонным соком. Добавляйте лимонный сок ближе к концу процесса приготовления.


This prank is a favorite of graduating seniors, but there's no reason you can't use it on one of your friends outside of school. When your friend is away, get permission from her parents or roommates to sneak into her room. Inflate as many balloons as you can and pack them into her room. You really want to fill her room here — the fuller, the better. Ideally, when she returns, she'll open her door, only for a floor-to-ceiling wave of balloons to come crashing down on her! This prank can take quite some time to set up, but one of the best things about it is that it's pretty quick (and entertaining) to clean up. All you need is something sharp, like a pointed stick or a pair of scissors, and you can start cutting through the sea of balloons like butter! If you're not squeamish about making your friend sweat, this is the trick for you. However, this prank requires your friend's boss, teacher, or principal to be willing to do a little acting. Talk this person about setting up a fake disciplinary hearing for your friend. Your friend's boss or teacher should call your friend away from his class or work and act as though he's in serious trouble. The boss or teacher should present fake evidence that your friend has done something against the rules (like cheating or stealing) and should recommend some sort of serious punishment (like detention or a pay cut). At the last second, reveal the joke and watch the look on your friend's face!  For example, if your friend is in school, you might arrange for his principal to pull him out of class one day and bring him to the office. Here, he might present a note (which you've written and signed with your friend's name) about how he thinks the principal looks like a fat, disgusting pig. Let the principal make your friend squirm for a while, then burst through the door laughing. Be careful with this prank — it's not for the faint of heart. If you pull this prank on the wrong person, it can easily lead to tears and seriously hurt feelings, so only use it on people that you know...

TL;DR in Russian:

Заполните комнату воздушными шарами. Устройте шуточное дисциплинарное слушание. Замаскируйтесь под предмет мебели. Сделайте так, чтобы ваш друг подумал, что все забыли о его дне рождения. Поместите всю мебель на потолок.


This preference is not so much about how social you are (which is what these terms are often associated with), as much as it deals with your tendency to act. When solving a problem, do you look inside first to solve the problem or outside? In other words, do you think about yourself first, or others? (Note: Do not be ashamed to admit that you think about yourself first. If you do, you are most likely a feeling type.)   Someone who normally looks in and is energized by social activity is typically extroverted in MBTI terms. They also crave being around people. Someone who typically likes to think and prefers alone time over social activity is "introverted". These types of people usually have active minds and prefer to think rather than talk. Do you do it through sensing or through intuition? Sensors see the trees; intuitives see the forest.   Sensors prefer concrete detail and facts. They're more likely to say "I won't believe it till I see it." They tend to distrust hunches or guesses when they're not rooted in logic, observation or facts. They also are better at details. They also are very conscious about their own needs.  Intuitives, on the other hand, feel more comfortable with abstract information and theories. They are spontaneous and more imaginative than sensors and enjoy exploring beyond the here and now, especially when thinking about the possibilities of the future. Their thoughts revolve around patterns, connections, and flashes of insights. Some also have trouble staying in the present, often daydreaming or forgetful - for example, they may forget to eat their lunch when really focused. Once you gather your information, whether by sensing or by feeling, how do you arrive at a decision?  Do you tend to try to look at it from the perspective of everyone involved in an attempt to find the most balanced, harmonious solution (e.g. reach a consensus)? If so, your preference is probably for feeling. If you tend to look for the most logical and consistent solution, perhaps measuring it up against a set of...

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите, кто вы: Подумайте о том, как вы собираете информацию. Обратите внимание на то, как вы принимаете решения. Подумайте о том, как вы относитесь к внешнему миру. Определите тип своей личности через комбинацию четырех букв (например  INTJ, ENFP).


This preservation dries leaves, but does not preserve their color. Sandwich your fall leaves in between two clean sheets of heavy white typing paper.  Use paper that is at least as heavy as typing paper, rather than something thin like tracing paper. Otherwise, the leaves may bleed through and create stains. Lay the leaves out in a single layer. Do not stack or overlap the leaves since doing so will cause them to stick together. Choose leaves that are in good shape. They should be recently fallen and moist. The tips should not be dried or turned up. A large, heavy book should work. To reduce the risk of staining the book or other pressing object, as well as the work surface, place sheets of blotting paper or paper towels in between the typing paper and the book. This will help to absorb the moisture from the leaves. Press the leaves directly inside the book. Use an old book that you do not mind staining just in case the leaves damage the pages. Simply tuck the leaves away into the pages of the book. Allow at least 20 pages in between leaves for best results.  Telephone directories work very well, if you have one available. Put weight on top of the book. The pressing helps press out moisture as well as keep the leaf flat. This can be other books, bricks, or any object with some heft. They should be dried; if they are still pliable, press them for another few days.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поместите листья между двумя листами бумаги. Положите на бумагу тяжелую книгу. Также можно засушить листья прямо в книге, но в этом случае стоит использовать только старую книгу, которую будет не жалко, так как могут остаться пятна. Проверьте состояние листьев через неделю.


This prevents dirt and plaque buildup on your mouth guard. It also ensures that your guard lasts as long as possible. You can do a quick rinse with mouthwash daily and a more thorough clean weekly. It is also very important to adopt a complete oral hygiene routine to reduce the amount of plaque buildup, so remember to brush two times a day. Night guards and mouth guards can be damaged by heat and by pets. They can also get stepped on and mangled. The best way to keep them clean and in good shape is consistently using a case. Some dentists say it is fine, while others claim that toothpaste is abrasive and can damage the guard. Even if you can’t see it, the abrasions can build up over time and compromise the mouth guard. Just as your mouth guard gets dirty, so does the case. Use a gentle soap solution. You can also clean it out with a bleach solution of 1 part bleach to 10 parts water. Only keep the bleach solution in for 5 to 10 minutes. It can compromise the plastic and make it start to melt. Use warm or cool (but not hot) water.

TL;DR in Russian:

Мойте капу раз в день. Храните капу в футляре. Будьте осторожны при чистке капы зубной пастой. Регулярно чистите футляр. Никогда не промывайте капу или ретейнер кипятком.


This prevents premature drying which can leave splotches on the paint. Washing your car in direct sunlight also runs the risk of your car becoming hot while you wash it, which will result in water evaporating more quickly and making the cleaning process more difficult.  Check that all windows are closed and retract the antenna, in order to prevent water from getting inside the car or the antenna from being snapped off. Pull the windshield wipers away from the windshield until they click into their propped position, away from the glass. This includes cleaning material: the car wash detergent that you will use for cleaning, a large supply of water (depending on the size of the vehicle), three buckets (two for washing, one for rinsing), a hose, and microfiber cloths or towels to dry your car. You’ll also want to have two or three wash mitts on hand, plus a large sponge, a stiff scrubbing brush, and maybe a separate brush to scrub your tires with.  Be prepared to get wet and soapy. Wear the appropriate work clothes: shoes, shorts and rubber sandals when the weather permits, long pants and rubber boots when it is a bit chilly. You can purchase car-specific detergent at your local auto parts store. When filling the two wash buckets with detergent, be careful to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations concerning the suggested water-to-detergent ratio. Then add car wash soap in the quantity directed on its bottle. This will be your washing bucket. If your car is very dirty or if you’d like to have a washing bucket for the body of your car and a separate washing bucket for washing your car’s wheel wells, you can fill two buckets with water and soap. This will be your rinsing bucket. You only need one bucket for rinsing, whether you’ve chosen to use one or two buckets for washing.

TL;DR in Russian:

Припаркуйте машину в тени. Положите все, что вам потребуется, возле машины. Наполните ведро водой. Налейте в отдельное ведро чистую воду.


This prevents your nose from bumping into that of your partner’s while French kissing. Even if you aren’t practicing with a person, you should still get into the habit of tilting your head slightly.  If you decide to learn to French kiss with another person, you should be direct and let them know that you want to kiss them for practice, not necessarily because you have feelings for them. You can practice french kissing with your hand, a piece of fruit, or even your imagination. If you’re using your hand, curl it loosely to form the letter “O” which represents your partner’s lips and mouth. If you’re using fruit, bite into a ripe, firm fruit such as a peach or plum to create a small hole that resembles a person’s mouth. Closing your eyes allows you to focus on the physical sensation of the French kiss. Lean in toward your partner, bringing your lips close to theirs. Alternatively, bring your lips close to the piece of fruit or your hand. You should only be an inch (2.5 cm) or so away. You want to start with a soft kiss and test the waters before moving on to a French kiss. Use light pressure and keep your mouth slightly parted. Avoid opening your mouth too wide, which can alarm your partner and result in a wet, sloppy kiss. Your lips should fit into theirs—your top lip can either be above their top lip or in between their lips. Your bottom lip, then, would rest in between their lips or below their bottom lip. If you’re practicing alone, fit your lips gently to your hand or to the piece of fruit. This slow movement allows you to gauge whether your partner is ready to French kiss, and prevents them from being alarmed or surprised at any sudden tongue thrust movements. After kissing them softly on the mouth, slowly stick your tongue out until it meets their lips—it can be the top lip, bottom lip, or both. If you are kissing someone for real and they open their mouth too, move ahead with the French kiss. When practicing by yourself, use light pressure to touch your hand or the piece of fruit with your tongue. The...

TL;DR in Russian:

Слегка наклоните голову в одну сторону. Закройте глаза и медленно приближайтесь губами к партнеру. Мягко прижмитесь своими губами к губам партнера. Нежно прикоснитесь языком к губам партнера. Слегка просуньте свой язык в рот партнера. Прикоснитесь своим языком к языку партнера, используя медленные поступательные движения.


This problem is easy — just solve exactly as above. See below for a step-by-step solution.  11/4 — to start, we need to divide the numerator by the denominator. 11 ÷ 4 = 2 R 3 — now, we need to make a fraction from the remainder and our original denominator. 11/4 = 2 3/4 We're dealing with a really big numerator here, but don't be intimidated — the process is exactly the same! See below:  99/5 — how many times does 5 go into 99? Since 5 goes into 100 exactly 20 times, it's safe to say that 5 goes into 99 19 times. 99 ÷ 5 = 19 R 4 — now, we just put the mixed number together like before. 99/5 = 19 4/5 Up until now, we've only dealt with improper fractions where the numerator is bigger than the denominator. But what happens when they're the same number? See below to find out.  6/6 — six goes into six one time with no remainder, obviously. 6 ÷ 6 = 1 R0. Since a fraction with 0 in the numerator is always equal to zero, we don't need to put a fraction next to our whole number. 6/6 = 1 If the numerator is a multiple of the denominator, you don't have to bother with the remainder — just do the division problem to get your answer. See below.  18/6 — since we know that 18 is just 6 × 3, we know we'll have a remainder of 0, so we don't need to worry about the fraction part of our mixed number. 18/6 = 3 Negatives work exactly the same way as positive numbers do. See below:  -10/3 -10 ÷ 3 = -3 R1 -10/3 = -3 1/3

TL;DR in Russian:

Преобразуйте неправильную дробь 11/4 в смешанное число. Преобразуйте неправильную дробь 99/5 в смешанное число. Преобразуйте неправильную дробь 6/6 в смешанное число. Преобразуйте неправильную дробь 18/6 в смешанное число. Преобразуйте неправильную дробь -10/3 в смешанное число.


This procedure involves using water to send an electrical current under the skin, which temporarily prevents sweating.  During iontophoresis, the hands are submerged in water while an electrical current is sent through the water. You might feel a tingling sensation, but the procedure is painless. Iontophoresis kits are available for home use. Talk to your doctor about purchasing one so you can use it any time. Oral medicines known as anticholinergics stop sweating as a side effect, so doctors sometimes prescribe them to treat excessive sweating in the hands.  This might be a good choice if you aren't an athlete, but if you're an active person, it can be dangerous to interfere with your body's production of sweat, which functions to cool the body when it becomes heated from exercise. Anticholinergics can also cause dry mouth and other side effects. Botox injections, which are often used to smooth wrinkles in the face or plump up the lips, can also be used to block the nerves that produce sweat. However, injections can be painful, and they only stop excessive sweating temporarily. This procedure involves surgically removing a nerve from inside the chest, permanently disrupting the nerve signal that controls the body's sweating.  This surgery should be considered only as a last resort, since in half of the cases the body compensates by overproducing sweat in a different area. The sweating in your hands might go away, but you may experience increased sweating on your back or in another area.  If you wish to undergo this procedure, find a doctor who has done it before. Don't risk getting such a risky procedure done by someone unfamiliar with the process.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте об ионофорезе. Попробуйте пероральные препараты. RИзучите вопрос введения ботулотоксина. Рассмотрите вариант симпатэктомии.


This procedure is done to quickly test for allergies. A small portion of a liquid containing an allergen is put on your skin. The doctor will then prick your skin and wait to see if you have any rash that forms around the area. Common allergens that are tested this way include:  Dust, pollen, animal hair, and food products. The controlled food challenge is another test that is similar to this one but is only used for food allergies. The test is only done in a doctors office and it can be dangerous. You would be given a small amount of food that you might be allergic to and observed for signs of an allergic reaction. If you think you may have food allergies, you can talk to a doctor about eliminating certain foods from your diet to see if you are allergic to them. The way the process works is you focus on eliminating one food group each week to see if your allergies clear up. You rotate eliminated foods until you figure out the food that is causing your symptoms. Foods that commonly cause allergies include eggs, nuts, wheat, milk and soy. Throat swabs are used to figure out what virus is causing the cold. A doctor will take a sterile cotton swab and gently run it along the inside of your throat. This can be uncomfortable but will help to figure out what kind of treatment you need if you do in fact have a cold rather than allergies. Once the doctor has gotten a large enough sample on the swab, he or she will send it off to a laboratory to be tested. Like a throat swab, a nasal swab is when mucus is collected from you by sticking a swab in your nose. Again, this can only be done by a doctor. When the doctor has collected a large enough sample, the swab will be sent off to a lab for testing. You will generally get your results back 48 hours after your visit to the doctor’s office. When you go into the doctor’s office, a nurse will take a sample of your blood. That sample will be sent to a lab for examination. Different types of allergens will be exposed to your blood so that the doctor can figure out what you are...

TL;DR in Russian:

Сделайте инъекционную кожную пробу, чтобы выяснить, нет ли у вас аллергии. Попробуйте методом исключения продуктов из своего рациона установить, есть ли у вас аллергия на определенные продукты питания. Попросите врача взять мазок из зева, чтобы определить наличие простуды. Попробуйте определить наличие простуды с помощью мазка из носа. Сдайте анализ крови, если вы подозреваете, что у вас тяжелая форма аллергии.


This procedure will allow you to change the width of the taskbar. Right-click directly on an empty portion of the taskbar, then remove the checkmark next to "Lock the taskbar." If no checkmark is present, the taskbar is already unlocked. Place your cursor on the outer edge of the taskbar until you see the cursor change into an arrow with 2 heads. Click on the edge of the taskbar, then drag the taskbar until you have reached a satisfying width. Release your mouse to secure the taskbar's current width. This will help keep your taskbar's width in place and prevent it from being accidentally resized. Right-click in the taskbar and place a checkmark next to "Lock the taskbar."

This procedure will vary depending on the make and model of your refrigerator.  Consult your refrigerator's manual to determine how the door hinges can be tightened. If you do not have the manual, contact the manufacturer directly or visit their website to obtain contact information or a copy of the manual. Most hinges can be accessed by opening the refrigerator and freezer doors, and will contain hinge caps that can be removed or pried off with a screwdriver. Use a screwdriver or similar tool as required to properly tighten the door hinges. You may need to place shims between your hinges and the refrigerator door if the door is still loose or refuses to close completely.  Shims made specifically for refrigerators can be purchased from retail stores that specialize in home repair or refrigerators. You can also use pieces of cardboard in place of metal or stainless steel shims. In some cases, you may need to remove shims that have not been properly installed in order to correct sagging or alignment problems with the door. If your refrigerator door contains a magnet catch that doesn't work, remove the magnet catch and place a shim underneath to allow the door to properly seal and close.

This process is not too dangerous if an adult follows these instructions precisely. Skipping any of the steps below greatly increases the risk of fire, especially if you heat the wax directly instead of using the double boiler setup described here. If the wax does ignite, extinguish the fire with baking soda or a chemical fire extinguisher. Never add water or a water-based fire extinguisher to a wax fire, as this causes an explosion. You only need about 2 inches (5 centimeters) of water. This will be the lower half of a makeshift double boiler. If you already have a double boiler, fill the lower pan with water and skip ahead to "Add the wax." Find a metal cookie cutter or metal jar lid, and place it on the base of the pan, underneath the water. Choose an aluminum or steel pan, and place it on top of the metal stand. Avoid other metals, which can discolor or react with the wax, and non-stick pans, which are very difficult to clean wax from. Don't use this pan for food again, unless you're using food-grade paraffin wax or beeswax. Even a food-safe wax may leave residue that affects the taste of your food, but it won't harm you. You can use beeswax or paraffin wax from a hobby retailer, or remove the wick from used candles and use them. Crumble or cut the wax into small pieces so they melt faster, then throw them into the smaller pan. Make sure there's enough wax to cover your hands. You can shave crayon wax into the mix to add color, or purchase wax dye or candle dye from a hobby store. If you're using a dye product, follow the instructions on the label. It's best to assume that any color addition is not safe for food, even if it is labeled non-toxic. In other words, if you add color here, don't use this pan for cooking. Before you begin heating the wax, read over one of the two methods below and gather any materials you need. There are two types of wax hands you can make:  Hollow wax hands are easy to make, and the only additional material you need is a container of water. To make a solid wax hand you can use...

TL;DR in Russian:

This process reverts your Nook to factory settings, so you will lose all data saved to it. This is likely what you want to do if you are selling your Nook, but if that is not your plan, only do this if you are advised by a professional that you have no other option. It is recommended that if you are keeping the device, you back up your files before resetting to factory settings. The easiest way to do this is to download the Nook Reading App to your PC. The app will then sync with your Nook when you log into your account, thus storing your Nook Library on your PC. You can find the app in Apple's App Store, in Google Play, and in Windows Store. You cannot complete a factory reset without being connected to a Wi-Fi network. It is best to connect to your own private network, but it can be done on a public network, as the information should be encrypted by Barnes and Noble's system. From here, you will be able to access the settings that will allow you to begin the process of doing a factory reset on your Nook 1st Edition. Once you confirm this step, your account and information will be unregistered from the Nook. As of now, your Nook has been cleared of your registration and account. After this, you will have to confirm twice. Once the process completes, your Nook will be completely cleared of all of your content and settings. It will be as it was the day you purchased it. This applies only if you are keeping your Nook and had to do a factory reset to resolve a software issue.
