A personal narrative should focus on something that was pivotal or meaningful in your life and also connects to the prompt you are addressing, if applicable. Ask yourself, “What events in my life stand out the most for me? What events taught me something or made me realize something life changing?”  Choose an event that feels full of meaning and significance to you personally. These events usually make the best story ideas for a personal narrative. For example, if your personal narrative focuses on your intended career path as a teacher, you could write a narrative about how a youth coaching experience showed you the importance of making a positive impact on children. Alternatively, if you’re writing about how you came to choose a college major in medical science, your narrative could focus on a wonderful volunteer experience you had as a child that made you want to help other people. A good personal essay will have an underlying moral or lesson, where the speaker undergoes a realization or change. Think of an experience where you learned a valuable lesson that you carried with you moving forward. Or an experience where you made a moral decision that shifted you in some way. For instance, you may pick an experience where you lost an important match, only to learn the value of failing and do better. Or you may choose an experience where you made a moral decision to help someone, which then lead to positive outcomes for you and the person. You can also go for a story idea that centers on a theme. You can then use your personal story to explore the theme in detail and from your perspective. Try to choose a theme that feels particular to you and your point of view. For example, you may choose a theme like love and use it to explore your experience of love growing up in a family with two fathers. Or you may choose a theme like freedom and use to to explore your struggles with freedom as a refugee.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите важное событие из вашей жизни. Выберите событие, которое содержит мораль или урок. Выберите идею для конкретной темы.


A personalized query letter is the only way to grab the attention of a publisher or agent right away, and it demonstrates that you're diligent, careful, and that you’ve chosen that agent for a reason. Moreover, make sure that the agent you're sending your letter to actually deals with your genre of work.  For example, if you’ve written a children’s book, seek out agents who represent children’s authors. The best formats for addressing your letter are Attn. Ms./Mr. Smith: or Dear Sam Smith:  Do not address a query letter to To Whom It May Concern, as this will more than likely never get read. If you cannot find the name of the agent or publisher online, call and ask to whom you should address your query. The first paragraph is an introduction between you and the agent, and this is where you explain to the agent why you have chosen that person specifically for representation. This could be because you’ve met, or have something in common, or any other reason that can link you to the agent.  Start by explaining any sort of relationship you have with the agent. This could include a mutual friend, a time when you two met, a conference you attended together, a lecture you heard that the agent gave, or any other connection you may have. If you don’t know any mutual people and have never met the agent, mention the name of a similar author the agent has represented. Once you've made your introductions, talk about your book. Be sure to mention the title, the word count, and what genre it falls into. Lastly, if your manuscript has been professionally edited, say so. This demonstrates that you're serious about your work. This comes in the second paragraph, and the job of the hook is to get the agent interested in your work. The hook is a concise but engaging sentence that sums up who the protagonist is, what he or she is trying to achieve, and what struggles are encountered along the way.  Don’t give away the ending. Instead, leave the end of the story a mystery or cliff hanger, so that the agent will want to keep reading...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поприветствуйте агента по имени. Письмо должно быть индивидуальным. Создайте интригу. Предоставьте краткое содержание книги. Расскажите о себе. Поблагодарите агента за уделенное время. Попрощайтесь и подпишите письмо. Отредактируйте письмо!


A person’s nose will change shape over time. The support within the nose will weaken as a person ages, and the nose will start to slump. It may look a little longer or larger as a person gets older. No matter how you think your nose looks now, it will continue to change, just as the rest of your body will change. This exercise helps remind us what we cognitively think is most important about a person. When we are asked what we like most about ourselves, we often name personality features over physical features. This reminds us that personality and capability are more important than physicality. We are also reminded that we have the power to define our self-worth by our own terms, not by those imposed on us by our culture.  Make a list of your three favorite physical features. You can train yourself to think more positively about your body overall. This might help you accept your nose and see it as beautiful too. List three of your favorite features. For example, you might say, “I like my eyes, I have long eyelashes, and I have nice toes.” List your favorite parts of your personality. You might say, “I am a hard worker, I’m a good friend, and I have a good sense of humor.” Put your two lists together and rank them in order of importance. Write one sentence about each list item. Most people who do this exercise tend to rank personality traits higher than physical traits. Write down a few of your favorite physical features again. If you have trouble coming up with examples, think of the ones that bother you the least.  Write a positive sentence about each of these features. For example, you might say, “I like my blue eyes because they sparkle in the light.” Use this information you’ve culled from within to make subtle changes in the way you carry yourself. If you think your eyes are a good physical feature, try wearing clothes that bring out your eye color. Wear makeup that accentuates your eyes. Once you identify the sources of your negative thoughts, you can work on changing your thoughts and perceptions of...

TL;DR in Russian:

Признайте, что со временем форма носа изменяется. Попробуйте упражнения познавательного убеждения. Повышайте свою самооценку внешности. Успокойте свою самокритику. Замените негативное мышление позитивным. Поймите, что принципы красоты строятся культурой.


A phone interview is not the time to spread out on your bed or lounge on the couch. How you're sitting affects how your voice sounds, and your interviewer will likely be able to tell if you're reclined. This sends the message that you're not taking the interview seriously.  Laying down also may reduce the call quality, or result in a lot of rustling and background noise when you shift position. If you sit up straight, your voice will project authority and confidence, which your interviewer will be able to hear. While it's true that your phone interviewer won't be able to see you, how you dress and present yourself will have an effect on your overall tone and attitude. Your interviewer will notice.  You don't necessarily have to go all the way and dress like you would if you were going to an in-person interview, but at least dress neatly and professionally before your phone interview. Think in terms of getting ready for the phone interview the way you would get ready to go to work if you were hired by the company. Even if you have the person on speaker phone, they'll be able to hear if you're eating or drinking during the interview. If you've ever heard someone eating or drinking while on the phone, you understand how distracting this can be.  In keeping with the idea of treating a phone interview like an in-person interview, you don't want to do anything that you wouldn't do if you were meeting in your interviewer's office – that includes things like eating, drinking, or chewing gum. Keep a glass of water on hand in case your throat gets dry. Turn your head away from the phone to drink, and avoid ice cubes that could clink and be heard over the phone. When you smile, your face is more relaxed and your tone will automatically be friendlier and brighter. Even though the interviewer won't be able to see you, your voice will radiate positivity and enthusiasm.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не сутультесь, сидя за столом. Отнеситесь к телефонному собеседованию не менее серьезно, чем  обычному. Не ешьте и не пейте во время интервью. Разговаривайте с улыбкой.


A photo of a loved one or a favorite personal memento are the best examples. Keep such an item somewhere you can glance at it whenever you wish to do so.  A vase of flowers on your desk is another good example. If there's nothing in your immediate vicinity to look at, imagine a place or person you enjoy and picture them in your head. This type of simple mental imaging can help calm you down. Vocal toning is a practice that can reduce the amount of stress hormones in your system. It is similar to making the “ohm” sound that is popular with yoga practitioners. Find somewhere private and quiet to try it out.  Sit up straight and make an “mmmm” sound while keeping your lips together and your teeth a bit apart. Though this may seem silly at first, the breathing and the vibrations that this leads to can cause pleasant sensations in your face, heart, and stomach. If you're generally on edge or otherwise anxious at work, a bit of soothing background noise can help calm you down. Singing or humming along with a tune can be especially effective, but so can simply listening to music you enjoy.  Soundtracks of nature noise(s) can also be reliably soothing.  You can find all sorts of recordings of waves, wind, and birds online. Even better, equip your workplace with a small fountain and enjoy the sound of bubbling or running water. Stimulating your other senses with sensations you enjoy can also help calm you down. Keep things like a scented candle, a stress ball to hold, or a healthy and enjoyable snack in your work area, if possible. It's important to note a difference between stress eating and stimulating your sense of taste to help calm down. For instance, you don't want to crush a bag of chips every time your blood starts to boil. That said, chewing a piece of gum might just do the trick!

TL;DR in Russian:

Расположите в поле зрения предмет, на который вам приятно смотреть. Вокальная гимнастика. Слушайте приятные звуки. Обоняйте, осязайте или попробуйте на вкус что-нибудь приятное.


A phrase or mantra can help you focus on something other than the fear. If you are feeling panicked, the mantra can pull you out of the panic and bring you back to the present. Focusing on the mantra can help you control your emotions so your anxiety doesn’t control you. Make your mantra something happy and calming. For example, if you like dogs, make your mantra something like, “Cute puppies on the grass.” Breathing exercises can help you reduce your panic and anxiety when it starts to overwhelm you. When you confront a storm, you can do breathing exercises to stay grounded and calm despite the thunder and lightning. For example, you can breathe in for a count of five to seven, hold the breath for four counts, and then exhale for a count of five. Fears arise from bad experiences and negative thoughts. To help get over your fear of thunderstorms, figure out what those thoughts are. Try writing down what you think about during a thunderstorms or what scares you so bad. Then, identify those thoughts as negative and false. When a storm approaches and you start thinking the negative thoughts, replace them with positive thoughts. For example, you may think that the thunder is going to hurt you and that lightning is going to kill you. When you are in a storm, tell yourself, “These thoughts are negative and false. Thunder is just sound. It cannot hurt me. I am safe in my house. Lightning cannot get me right here.” Wrapping yourself in a blanking or holding a stuffed animal may help you feel better. Feeling the secure blanket tightly around you can calm your anxiety. Find ways to amuse yourself and distract yourself during a storm. This helps you take control of the situation, focus on something positive instead of your fear, and hopefully learn how to cope during storms. Find a place where you feel comfortable to do something like reading a book, playing a board game, or watching TV. Playing calming or happy music can help relieve your anxiety and distract you from the storm. If the storm is too much, you can put on...

TL;DR in Russian:

Повторяйте себе успокаивающие фразы. Выполняйте дыхательные упражнения. Боритесь с негативными мыслями. Прижмите к себе любимую игрушку или закутайтесь в одеяло. Постарайтесь отвлечься от грозы. Послушайте музыку.


A physical card is much nicer than only sending an email to say thank you. It’s a more personal gesture and it is more meaningful than an ecard or email. It will also give your teacher a physical keepsake to remember their old students by.  If you aren’t sure of your teacher’s mailing address, then you might need to do some investigating. Some options to try for locating the address include contacting the school directly or contacting the alumni or local teacher's associations. If the teacher you’re thanking is a high school teacher, then you can simply address the card to your teacher at the school’s address, which will be available on the main page of the school’s website. If you’re thanking a former college professor, then things get a little trickier. You’ll need to either call the office of the department in which your professor teaches to find out their specific mailing address or search the school’s website to find out the address of a particular department. For example, if you want to thank your former Political Science professor, then you will need to call or search the website of that department to find the correct mailing address for your professor. Do not send the card to the general university mailing address, as that is for school administrators, not faculty. College faculty are often very mobile, more so than K-12 teachers, so they might not still be teaching at the school where they taught you. If this is the case, you can contact the department office and ask for a forwarding address for them. When you go shopping for a thank you card, keep in mind what you want to convey with your card. Do you want it to be serious or would you prefer a more playful message and design? Make sure the tone of your thank you card is appropriate for the relationship you have with your teacher. If you’re unsure, err on the side of caution. You’ll be personalizing the card, so pictures on the card are less important. A handmade card is also a wonderful gesture! It shows a little more effort on your part and is...

Отправьте подписанную от руки открытку. Сделайте или купите благодарственную открытку. Правильно обратитесь к учителю. Укажите, за что вы  благодарите. Будьте вежливы и грамотны.


A pictograph can be made with the help of computer programs such as excel.  Drawing a pictograph by hand gives you unlimited possibilities for creativity. Making a pictograph on excel is an easy way to create a professional looking graph. Input your data into an excel spreadsheet. Select the data and insert a bar graph. Click on the graph and select "Fill Options." Select "Picture or Texture Fill Options" and choose Clip Art as the source of your image. Click "Stack" to change the bar into pictures. A pictograph is a type of graph and will have labels on the side and below to tell what is being represented. The axes of a graph are a vertical and horizontal line that serve as an outer boundary or margin for the graph.  Label one axis with the category of the data that was collected, such as “States” Label the other axis with the type of data collected, such as “Number Pecans Harvested” Using the data table you created, fill in the pictures for each category of data.  Draw the corresponding numbers of each symbol to represent the numbers in the data you collected. Be careful to use the right symbol or partial symbol to accurately represent each number. Under each column of pictures, write the source of the data. For each state where monarchs were seen, you would write the name of the state under the pictures. You can also write the number that is being represented by the pictures to help make the pictures more concrete and easier to understand. In the corner of your pictograph draw a key that tells the reader of the pictograph what each picture represents.  Make sure that each symbol used in the pictograph is represented on the key. If you used partial symbols, such as half a pecan, define how much the partial symbol represents. Label the key so readers know it is the key and not an additional category of data. If you are giving a presentation or making a poster to describe data, pictographs are a quick way to present a large amount of data. A well made pictograph will give a person an easy way to understand...

TL;DR in Russian:

Нарисуйте пиктограмму от руки или создайте на компьютере. Создайте и обозначьте оси графика. Используйте символы на пиктограмме. Обозначьте каждую категорию данных. Используйте легенду. Используйте пиктограмму для пояснения данных.


A picture is often as important as any words. The human brain will often notice a picture before words. Now that you have the reader's attention, take advantage of it! Give the reader something to look at—people tend to remember concrete, visual messages even more than words. So an image is an effective element, whether it is a logo, a picture of a lost dog, or a graphic. You don’t necessarily need to create an entirely new image. Consider using one of your own photos or using an image in the public domain that you’ve found online. Some computer programs and suites, such as Microsoft Office, also offer a variety of stock images. This will make the image more noticeable from a distance once it's printed on the paper. If you don't have an image editor, a free app like Picasa (http://picasa.google.com/), from Google, will work fine. Try to use only one image if you can. If necessary, you can include two images side by side, but any more than this will make the flyer too cluttered, which makes it less likely to catch someone's eye. If you’ve hooked the reader, she’s coming in closer now for the details. A good caption can drive home the message of the image. It can also serve to reinforce or add detail to the compelling stand-alone copy you’ve included on the flyer. Framing your picture might help “anchor” it to the flyer, instead of just having it float out there as a stand-alone insert. Consider inserting a border or light shadow around it. For emphasis, you might even include stars or an arrow pointing to your picture.

TL;DR in Russian:

Добавьте картинку или рисунок. Найдите изображение. Используйте программу для редактирования изображений для увеличения контрастности рисунка. Дайте описание под картинкой. Выделите изображение рамкой.


A piece of gold will usually be stamped with a mark indicating its type. A stamp of “GF” or “HGP” indicates that the piece is gold-plated, not pure gold. In contrast, a pure gold piece of jewelry may show a “24K” or other marking indicating fineness. Hallmarks are usually located inside the band of rings or near the clasp on necklaces.  However, be aware that some hallmarks can be faked. This is why it’s important to use a mark as only one of many indicators of authenticity. The hallmark may be very small. You might even need a magnifying glass in order to see it clearly. Turn on a bright light or lamp. Hold the piece close to the lamp’s light. Rotate it in your hand, so that you can examine all of the edges in particular. If you see that the gold appears faded or worn away at the edges, then it’s likely wear on the plating. This means that piece isn’t pure gold. If you hold the piece under a bright light, do you notice white or red spots anywhere on it? The spots may be very tiny and difficult to see. That is why it’s important to examine the piece under a bright light and maybe with a magnifying glass. These spots indicate that the gold plating may be wearing away showing the metal underneath. Hold a magnet directly above the piece. Lower the magnet until it is almost touches the surface of the item. If you feel as if the magnet is being drawn or pulled downward, then the item is not pure. The other metals in the item, such as nickel, are responding to the magnet. A pure gold piece will not draw the magnet, since non-ferrous.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите клеймо. Поищите следы обесцвечивания по краям изделия. Обратите внимание на пятна на поверхности изделия. Положите магнит рядом с тестируемым предметом из золота.


A piece of pork shoulder should be at roughly room temperature before cooking. If refrigerated, let the pork sit for roughly half an hour prior to cooking. If frozen, you may need to let the pork defrost overnight. While waiting for your pork shoulder to warm, it's a good idea to let the oven warm up (especially if yours is slow to heat). If your pork is frozen and defrosting, you may need to wait until the end of the defrosting process to turn on your oven. Use a cooking rack to ensure the pork does not sit in its own juices as it cooks. An oven-safe pan can collect the pork's juices as they drain during cooking - you can dispose of these after cooking or use them for gravy, etc. Place the pork on the rack fat side up. As the pork cooks, the fat will render and liquefy, running down the pork. Essentially, this allows the pork to baste itself. Use a sharp knife to cut a criss-cross pattern of slices into the top of your pork shoulder. This serves multiple purposes, allowing the pork's juices to spill out and baste the meat during cooking and allowing your seasonings to penetrate deeper into the meat. Be very generous with your seasonings - much of the roast pork shoulder's flavor comes from its delicious outer crust, the flavor of which is determined by the seasonings you choose. There are a very wide variety of rubs and seasonings suitable for pork shoulders. Some can be store-bought, while others can be recreated at home.  When in doubt, a simple rub of salt, pepper, garlic, and a few basic spices of your choosing (especially thyme and coriander) works great. If you can't get the seasoning to "stick", try rubbing the pork shoulder with a light coating of olive oil first. To marinate your pork, you'll want to submerge the pork in a solution that usually contains oil, one or more acidic ingredients, and the seasonings of your choice. The acidic ingredients "cut" the oil in the marinade, providing flavor and keeping the finished product from becoming too greasy. Let the pork sit in the marinade for at least 4...

A pilonidal cyst is a bump that pops up at the top of the cleft of the buttocks. The pilonidal cyst can get infected and turn into an abscess, which means it will fill with pus and need to be drained. A pilonidal cyst usually occurs due to ingrown hairs or other debris trapped beneath the skin. Pilonidal cysts occur most commonly in men in their twenties and thirties. They also can occur in people who have to sit a lot and have sedentary jobs, such as truck driving and office work.  Pilonidal cysts also occur more commonly in people with a lot of body hair or with coarse, stiff hair. These types of hair can puncture a cyst more easily. Other risk factors include being overweight or obese, if you have recently experienced local trauma or irritation, a deep natal cleft (the groove between the buttock), or if there is a family history of such disease. If a pilonidal cyst is not infected, there are usually no significant symptoms; however, if an imbedded hair punctures the cyst, either because you are sitting too much, wearing tight clothing, or some other unknown factor, the cyst can become infected. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you should see a physician as soon as possible. When the cyst becomes infected, you may experience:  Swelling Pain Redness Drainage with a nasty odor Fever Formation of a cavity which may contain granulation tissue, hair, and debris

TL;DR in Russian:

Узнайте, что собой представляет пилонидальная киста. Определите, находитесь ли вы в группе риска. Распознайте симптомы и признаки пилонидальной кисты.


A pilonidal cyst is a cyst that occurs around the buttocks or lower back. The cyst may be tender, warm to the touch, and may produce pus or other drainage. In order to stop the cyst from growing, keep the area surrounding it clean and dry. Pilonidal cysts are often caused by ingrown hairs, which are hairs trapped beneath the surface of the skin. Remove any hair follicles near the cyst to prevent them from becoming ingrown. As pilonidal cysts can lead to potentially serious infections, you should always have them examined by a medical professional. Make an appointment with your general practitioner when you notice the development of a pilonidal cyst.  Usually, a doctor will give you a brief physical examination and look at the cyst. The doctor will also ask about any drainage you've noticed, whether the cyst is painful, and how long you think it's been there.  The doctor will also ask whether you have other symptoms. If the cyst has caused a rash or fever, the doctor might recommend removal. If the cyst is not causing problems no treatment is needed. The least invasive measure to remove a pilonidal cyst is having it lanced and drained. The doctor will cut a small hole in the cyst and drain any excess fluid. The cyst will then be packed with gauze. You may be prescribed antibiotics to prevent infection. Cysts sometimes recur after draining. Your doctor might recommend surgical removal. Surgery is usually brief, but recovery time can be lengthy and you may have an open wound that needs cleaning.

TL;DR in Russian:

Удаление волосяных фолликулов, ставших причиной кисты. Покажите кисту врачу. Откачайте жидкость из кисты. Хирургические удаление кисты.


A pinched nerve is usually accompanied by specific symptoms. If one is affecting your shoulder, you may feel any combination of these symptoms in the area:  Numbness Pain radiating outwards Tingling Muscle weakness Visit your doctor to have your shoulder looked at and your symptoms reviewed. Your physician may try using several different tests to see if the problem is caused by a pinched nerve, including:  Nerve conduction study, which measures electrical nerve impulses by placing electrodes on your skin Electromyography (EMG), which uses needle electrodes to test electrical activity in your muscles Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which can show if there is nerve compression What feels like pain in your shoulder might actually be caused by another problem. For instance, a pinched nerve in your neck might cause pain to radiate out to your shoulder. If your doctor doesn't see a problem with the nerves in your shoulder, they may perform additional tests on other areas.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратите внимание на симптомы. Пройдите медицинские исследования. В случае необходимости проверьте другие нервы.


A pinched nerve occurs when a nerve is damaged in some way and unable to fully send its signals. It is caused when a nerve gets compressed, which can be due to a herniated disc, arthritis, or bone spurs. You can also get a pinched nerve from other situations and activities such as injury, poor posture, repetitive motions, sports, hobbies, and obesity. Pinched nerves can occur all over the body, although they are most common in the spine, neck, wrists, and elbows.  These conditions cause inflammation, which constricts your nerves and causes them to become pinched. Poor nutrition and general health can worsen a pinched nerve. This condition can be reversible or irreversible, depending on the severity of the case. A pinched nerve is essentially a physical obstruction of body’s wiring system.  The symptoms of a pinched nerve usually include numbness, minor swelling, sharp pain, tingling, muscle spasms, and muscle weakness. A pinched nerve is typically associated with shooting pains in the affected area. These symptoms happen because the nerves are not effectively sending signals through the body due to the compression or obstruction to your nerve. Once you diagnose your pinched nerve, you need to start taking care of yourself. You should stay off of the affected body part or use it less.  Repetitive use of muscles, joints, and tendons that have caused the compressed nerves will make it worse. This is because the surrounding areas continue to swell and constrict the nerve. The easiest way to get a bit of immediate pain relief from any compressed nerve is to rest the pinched nerve and the surrounding area until the swelling and compression completely subsides.  You should avoid flexing and moving the area of the pinched nerve so you don't pinch the nerve even further. There are certain movements that cause your symptoms to immediately get worse, and these movements should be avoided if at all possible. If a certain movement or position causes increased symptoms and pain, isolate the injured area and avoid doing...

A pitch is the story behind your idea and its significance. All pitches that you end up delivering should be a conversation with your client, but for now, create a story behind your idea to give yourself some working material. You could write it down, talk it over with a trusted advisor, make a presentation, or even craft an abstract storyboard. A pitch addresses  what problem you want to solve how your idea solves that problem how to implement your idea what you expect the payoff of this implementation to be These are limitations that you are not willing to overstep to sell this idea, including your reservation price, which is the least amount of profit you are willing to make before you walk away from a deal. Hard boundaries might include  A timeline: how much time are you willing to dedicate to this idea? Industries: are there any companies or industries you are not willing to work with? Finances: how little money will you be happy with, and how much money are you willing to take? Values: what of your idea and beliefs are you willing to change to sell? Do you care most about the impact, profit, or relevance of your idea? You can find them through word of mouth, online research, industry connections, and personal connections.  Keep the longer list of potential buyers in case you have to go back and adjust your strategy Keep an open mind. Look at companies who are growing or failing. Use personal connections to open conversations with buyers. Know whether you plan to sell your idea once to one buyer or multiple times to competing buyers. Personal connections help a lot, including the industry experts who helped you earlier in the process. Cold calling and emailing can also be effective. Listen to the opinions of those who turn down your product and see if you need to improve your product or target different buyers. Selling is hard, and selling a young idea is harder. Especially when you are trying to sell to a stranger or large company, you should continue to try to sell your idea even in the face of...

A plastic bucket or dish pan that holds around 5 gallons (19 L) will allow you to work with bold colors without worrying about making a mess. You can also do your dyeing in a sink, provided that it’s stainless steel. Whatever container you select should be roomy enough to comfortably hold several gallons of water, along with the item you’ll be dyeing. Don’t use Rit Dye in white porcelain or fiberglass sinks, as it can cause permanent stains. Lay out a few sheets of newspaper or some old towels directly under your dyeing container. They'll serve as a barrier to keep the dye from coming into contact with the floor, countertop, or whatever other surface you're using. By taking a few extra moments to prepare, you stand to spare yourself an extensive cleanup process later on. Be sure to also wear gloves while handling dye to avoid staining your hands. For effective dyeing, the water you use should ideally be around 140°F (60°C) (hot enough to release steam). The intense heat will soften the fibers of the fabric and help them accept the dye.  Rit Dye recommends using 3 gallons (11 L) of water for roughly every pound 1 pound (454g) of fabric you’re coloring.  If the water from your tap doesn’t get as hot as you need, heat a few gallons in a tea kettle and transfer it to your dyeing container. For best results, use approximately half a bottle of liquid dye per pound (454g) of fabric, or one whole box of powdered dye. If you’re dyeing a single t-shirt or a couple pairs of underwear, you can get away with using less, whereas you’ll likely need more for a heavy sweater or multiple pairs of jeans. Liquid dye can be poured straight in. For powdered Rit Dye, mix the entire package into 2 cups (240ml) of hot water, then incorporate the mixture slowly until you achieve the desired depth of color. Stir the dye until it’s completely distributed.  Give the dye a good shake before pouring it in to make sure it’s properly mixed. Do your stirring with a stainless steel spoon or similar utensil. If the item you’re dyeing is cotton,...

A player cannot receive an offside penalty for receiving the ball directly from a throw-in, a corner kick, or a goal kick. In these situations the ball has left play and reset all offside statuses. When the defending team takes control of the ball, the offside status of the attackers gets reset. Any attackers who were offside for the last play are now free to interfere with the play without penalty. However, there are some edge cases where it may be unclear whether this has happened. The ref always makes the final call, but these are the general guidelines:  If a defender accidentally deflects the ball or it rebounds off her, there is no offside reset. This includes an instinctive reaction to deflect the ball, although this can be a tough ref call. If the defender makes a save to prevent a goal, there is no offside reset. (This prevents offside players from gaining an advantage by waiting at the goal.) The defender must gain control of the ball before the offside player can interfere. (This can be subjective, but the offside player is usually safe if approaching from some distance away.) If a defender runs off the edge of the field due to his own momentum, he still counts as a defender when working out onside and offside positions. An offside player who does not approach the ball can still receive a penalty if she blocks the vision of a defender in a way that impairs her play. Since a rules tweak in 2013, this is the only way an offside player can receive a penalty without coming into contact with a defender or the ball. Gestures and shouting do not violate offside rules, though they may receive a penalty for unsporting conduct.

TL;DR in Russian:

Ознакомьтесь с ситуациями, в которых офсайд не влечет за собой штрафных мер. Случаи, в которых аннулируются все текущие положения “вне игры”. Учитывайте защитников, выбежавших за пределы поля. Учитывайте удаленное влияние игроков, находящихся в положении “вне игры”.

A poem might start as a snippet of a verse, a line or two that seems to come out of nowhere, or an image you cannot get out of your head. You can find inspiration for your poem by doing writing exercises and using the world around you. Once you have inspiration, you can then shape and mold your thoughts into a poem. Inspiration for a great poem is all around you, even if you don’t see it just yet. Think of every memory, situation, and moment as a possible topic and you’ll start seeing poetry all around you! You can start your poem by focusing on a specific theme or idea that you find fascinating or interesting. Picking a specific theme or idea to focus on in the poem can give your poem a clear goal or objective. This can make it easier for you to narrow down what images and descriptions you are going to use in your poem.   For example, you may decide to write a poem around the theme of “love and friendship.” You may then think about specific moments in your life where you experienced love and friendship as well as how you would characterize love and friendship based on your relationships with others. Try to be specific when you choose a theme or idea, as this can help your poem feel less vague or unclear. For example, rather than choose the general theme of “loss,” you may choose the more specific theme, such as “loss of a child” or “loss of a best friend.” Get your creative juices flowing by picking a form for your poem. There are many different poetic forms that you can use, from free verse to sonnet to rhyming couplet. You may go for a poetic form that you find easy to use, such as free verse, or a form that you find more challenging, such as a sonnet. Choose one poetic form and stick to that structure so your poem feels cohesive to your reader.  You may decide to try a poetic form that is short, such as the haiku, the cinquain, or the shape poem. You could then play around with the poetic form and have fun with the challenges of a particular form. You may opt for a form that is more funny and playful,...

A police officer can pull you over for any traffic violation, no matter how minor. They can even follow you and wait for you to commit a traffic violation. Never fight with the police officer or act in a threatening or hostile manner. If you do, the officer could react by arresting you or retaliating in some other way. A police officer cannot pull you over without probable cause. Reasons such as your age, race or the type of car you drive are not probable cause for a traffic stop. If you believe that you've been pulled over for an illegal reason, record the interaction between yourself and the police officer, if possible. Simply place your cell phone on your dashboard and hit “record.” Slow down, put your turn signal on, and pull over to the right. This will signal to the officer that you intend to pull over. Try to find a close parking lot or wide shoulder of the road. Many officers will appreciate the consideration. Take the keys out of the ignition and place them on the dash. If it's dark and you are alone, you have the right to drive to a well-lit area, such as a gas station, before stopping. If you plan to drive until you find a safe place, dial 911. Let them know that you are being pulled over by a police officer and that you are driving until you find a well-lit safe place to pull over. The 911 operator will communicate this information to the police officer. . Even though getting pulled over by a police officer is scary, you will be okay even if you get a traffic ticket. Take a deep breath and remember that police officers are not evil or scary. They are there to help protect everyone. If it is dark, turn on interior lights. Make all your movements slowly. The officer is watching you carefully to make sure you're not drawing a weapon or hiding something. Do not reach for anything in the passenger compartment of your vehicle or under your seat. As the officer approaches, put your hands on the steering wheel where the officer can see them. When the officer comes over to your car, he will usually ask for...

A polished look is a put together look, so don't leave your hair out of the equation. If you have time, make an effort to spend some time styling your hair every day – straighten it, curl it, put it in a nice bun, shape it with mousse, etc. If you're not a great hairstylist, rock a low-maintencace haircut that's easy to style on your own. Ask your hairdresser about cuts that would work best for you.  Simple hairstyles like ponytails can look polished with a little extra effort. After you put your hair in a ponytail, take a small piece of your hair, wrap it around the hair tie, and pin it in place. This will elevate your pony to a polished hairdo. Even if you like the messy, bedhead look, use styling creams or a little shine serum to give your hair an on-purpose messy look. Leave some hair products and tools at work. Whether the wind ruined your curls on the way in to the office, or you need to re-straighten your hair before after-work cocktails, it's a good idea to keep some haircare things at work. Whether you're heading out on a date, going into the office for a regular day of work, or running errands around town, always wear your fragrance. People always notice when you smell good, and it will leave an impression that you're well polished and put-together. Don't douse yourself in your scent, but subtly apply it throughout the day. Ideally, you should carry a small bottle of your perfume / cologne around with you. As simple as it sounds, taking care of your hands and nails is one of the top characteristics of a polished individual. People who keep their hands manicured appear to be more put-together than those who don't. You don't have to necessarily keep polish on your nails, but make sure that you keep your nails filed and your cuticles trimmed. Carry hand lotion with you to keep your hands nice and soft. If you enjoy polishing your nails, be sure to change the polish once your nails start chipping. It's a good idea to wear softer colors, like tans and light pinks, as it is less obvious when those...

A polygraph cannot detect a lie, per se, but it does track physiological changes in your body, like your blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and perspiration, thereby detecting physiological conditions that occur when you lie. Once you arrive for the appointment, the equipment and process will be reviewed. It does not hurt to familiarize yourself with the basics on your own, but avoid polygraph horror stories posted on the Internet, since these will only make you more nervous than you need to be. If you spend too much time worrying about the polygraph test before you take it, you run the risk of skewing the test against your favor by finding things to condemn yourself on needlessly.  To avoid worrying yourself unnecessarily, do not ask anyone who has taken a polygraph what it was like, do not spend time soul-searching before the test, and do not try to anticipate which questions will be asked. Try to avoid spending too much time reviewing anti-polygraph websites, since these websites often mix fact with hyped-up conspiracies and may cause undue panic. You need to be comfortable during the polygraph in order to provide accurate physiological responses. In order to be comfortable, you need to make sure that you are well-rested and feeling as physically cozy as possible.  Follow your usual routine as accurately as possible. Even if your routine includes activities that affect your heart rate, like drinking caffeinated coffee or going for a morning run, you should follow your routine since your body has trained itself to run on those physiological conditions. Try to get seven or eight hours of sleep the night before the test. Make sure that you are not hungry and that you have loose, comfortable clothes on. Depending on the reason for the polygraph, you might have security clearance forms to fill out or forms requiring your authorization. Take your time on these forms. Read through them carefully and sign your name only when ready. If you are currently ill, the examiner may want you to reschedule the test....

TL;DR in Russian:

Поймите, как работает полиграф. Старайтесь не обдумывать тест заранее. За сутки до проверки позаботьтесь о своем организме. Заполните все данные вам формы. Сообщите эксперту о наличии заболеваний или препаратов, которые вы принимаете. Просмотрите вопросы и потратьте как можно больше времени на то, чтобы их понять. Знайте, какие вопросы будут использоваться.


A popular saying that has shown up in many news releases is “you can’t outrun a bad diet.” Scientists have discovered that what you eat has more of an effect on your weight and overall health than caloric restriction and exercise. A diet of lean proteins and vegetables is your best friend, particularly when you’re trying to jumpstart your weight loss.  Eat as many whole foods — for example, raw fruits and veggies, chicken, raw almonds, and rice — as possible. When you do buy processed foods, look at the nutritional value to ensure that the products are low in sugar, saturated fat and salt, and high in fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals. Consider following this sample diet and variations on it each day for a week. When preparing your meals do not use any sodium. In addition, be sure to drink only water and unsweetened, clear tea!  Breakfast — 1/2 pear, 1/2-cup wild blueberries, coconut milk, hemp heart and flax seed smoothie, plus one rye cracker with almond butter. Lunch — carrot soup (no sodium) made with carrots, zucchini, fresh ginger, turmeric, onion powder, poultry seasoning, and pepper, plus a fresh greens salad with shredded carrots and beets, topped with pumpkin seeds and a garlic-extra-virgin-olive-oil dressing. Dinner — kale and red onions fried in extra virgin olive oil, topped with a coconut-milk-tumeric-curry-powder sauce, plus a salad of shredded carrots and beets topped with sunflower seeds, plus one baked 4-oz. chicken breast. Snack (if needed) — one apple, or 1/2 an apple plus 10 raw almonds, or one pear, or 1/2 a pear plus 10 raw almonds. Your body burns more calories digesting protein than when it digests fat and carbs. Try replacing carbs with lean proteins such as lean beef, turkey, fish, chicken (white meat), tofu, nuts, beans, eggs, and low-fat dairy. Contrary to popular belief, carbs are not evil, and can be part of a healthy diet; however, low-carb diets have been proven to help with weight loss, so if you’re trying to lose weight quickly, you’ll want to limit your carb intake. If...

TL;DR in Russian:

Питайтесь правильно. Знайте, каким может быть примерное меню. Ешьте полезный белок. Ешьте меньше углеводов. Ешьте меньше соли. Ешьте больше клетчатки. Употребляйте в пищу больше специй. Пейте больше воды. Пейте черный кофе или зеленый чай.


A potato with high starch and lower water content will always be best for french fries. Try using russet potatoes that are slightly older, if possible. To help maintain uniform shape, pick larger, evenly shaped potatoes. Soaking your fries in water removes excess starch and prevents the fries from getting stuck together. Soak your fries for five minutes and strain. Place them on a plate in a single layer then pat them with paper towels. Let them lay out for a few minutes to air dry.

TL;DR in Russian:

A predictable routine can feel safe to autistic children. It can be especially helpful to make a visual schedule, so that they can see exactly what is going to happen. Try cards that can be rearranged, or a dry-erase board, to account for changes in routine. Pictures can also help support the child's memory, because some autistic children may have difficulty remembering important things. For example, if they have a picture of homework on days when they have homework, it can help them remember. Sensory needs can interfere with self-control and other abilities, so keep them on a healthy sensory diet. Provide a calming, low-input environment for hypersensitivity, and have activities prepared for sensory seekers. Because autistic children struggle with self-regulation, having a quiet space where they can retreat can help them balance themselves when they are overwhelmed or moody. Encourage the child to use it whenever they need to.  Place stim toys and ways to block sensory input in the corner. Divide it from the rest of the room with a curtain, shelf, or other barrier. Leave the child alone when they are using the corner. Just as autistic people work hard to accommodate non-autistics, non-autistic people need to be helpful and understanding towards autistic people. If a behavior is not harming anyone, then non-autistic people need to learn to accept it. Don't micromanage. Autistic children are at risk for anxiety, and may need anxiety medication or cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to keep it under control. Managing any anxiety disorders can help the child be healthier and happier. Maintaining a good relationship with the child is important for both people's well-being. Do fun things together, talk to them, and take time to listen carefully to what they have to say (whether it's verbal or not).

TL;DR in Russian:

Живите по установленному распорядку. Организуйте сенсорную регуляцию. Организуйте пространство, где ребенок сможет побыть в одиночестве и успокоиться, когда ему это необходимо. Уясните, что не всегда требуется вмешательство для изменения необычного поведения аутичных детей. Обратите внимание на признаки тревожного расстройства. Поддерживайте общение с ребенком и радуйтесь позитивному взаимодействию.


A pregnant mare can be checked for pregnancy hormones to determine pregnancy. This is especially useful when the mare is too irritable for non-chemical methods of determining pregnancy or when the rectum is too small for physical evaluation.  Have a veterinarian take a blood sample. The vet will send the blood sample to a laboratory and have it tested. Test the level of pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) 40 to 100 days after your mare has been with a stallion. If your mare was pregnant but lost the fetus, the PMSG test may give inaccurate results. Analyze the level of oestrone sulphate 100 days after the breeding. Oestrone sulphate levels increase with the presence of a foal, but go back to normal if the fetus is aborted. When checking mares for pregnancy, oestrone sulphate can be found in the mare's urine. A urine test can be performed by a veterinarian or using a home test.  Obtain a home pregnancy testing kit from a feed store or online. Test your breeding mare's urine 110 to 300 days after they have been with a stallion. Cut a 1 gallon (3.8 L) or 2-liter liquid container in half with a knife. Use the bottom to collect your mare's urine. Follow the directions on the pregnancy test kit to analyze your mare's urine. It takes 10 minutes to obtain the results. Using chemical-based tests can indicate that your mare is pregnant, but it is good to have another test performed by a vet—whether chemical or non-chemical—to ensure the foal has not slipped the foetus. Also, chemical-based tests are sometimes used improperly, so a positive result should be confirmed by a veterinarian.

A prescription is required to purchase contact lenses in the United States, even if those contacts are cosmetic rather than corrective.  During your appointment, tell your eye doctor about your needs and expectations. If your eye doctor approves your request for contact lenses, you will get to choose your lenses. Color contacts come in tinted and opaque varieties that can either enhance or completely change your eye color while you are wearing them.   Enhancement tint contact lenses intensify your natural color with a translucent tint.  Since they are translucent, they will not completely change your natural eye color.   Color tint contact lenses come in a variety of shades and colors including specialty colors like amethyst, violet, and green. They are opaque so they will completely block your natural color with the lens color. Follow your eye doctor’s instructions carefully when putting in and taking out your contact lenses.  Always wash your hands before putting  in or taking out your contact lenses.   Never sleep in your contact lenses.   Don’t wear your contact lenses while bathing or swimming. Depending on the type of contact lenses your doctor has prescribed, you may need to disinfect them daily. Improper care of contact lenses can cause eye infections, so it is important to clean your contact lenses as directed by your eye doctor. If you experience any problems or simply have questions about your contact lenses, talk to your eye doctor.

TL;DR in Russian:

Назначьте встречу с окулистом. Выберите тип и цвет линз. Используйте линзы по назначению. Заботьтесь о ваших контактных линзах. Если у вас возникают какие-то проблемы с линзами, неудобства или вопросы, обратитесь к вашему доктору.


A prime rib roast with the bone in will have about 1 serving per pound, so plan to buy a pound of meat for every adult guest you're serving. Each guest will end up with about 6 ounces of meat. You certainly don't want to skimp, and the leftovers will be delicious, so you may want to buy an extra pound or two. The prime rib roast, also called a standing rib roast, is a fairly rare cut of meat, since butchers may need to sacrifice more common cuts of meat to get a large roast. Therefore, plan ahead and ask your butcher to cut you a prime rib roast in the size you need by a certain date. When you get the roast, it should be heavily marbled with a thick cap of fat and deep red meat that springs back when touched.  You should be able to order a prime rib roast at your supermarket's meat department, but you may also try a local butcher. This roast is far more costly than other cuts of meat. If you are going to indulge in a prime rib roast, you may as well ensure you are getting a high grade of meat, like USDA Prime, if that option is available (most meat on the market is USDA choice quality, which has less fat marbling). You might also consider getting a dry-aged or grass-fed roast, both of which will yield beautiful results. You may do this at home or ask your butcher to do it for you. Cutting the bones away from the roast, then tying them back on with kitchen twine will make the roast easier to carve the roast once it's cooked.  Slide a sharp knife between the top edge of the bones and the meat. Carefully cut them from the roast. You may leave the ends attached if desired. Wrap a piece of kitchen twine under the bones and around the meat, and tie it tightly. If you bought a less expensive cut of meat, you might want to  apply a rub and let it refrigerate overnight so the flavors meld with the meat. If you bought USDA Prime beef, grass-fed beef or dry-aged beef, there's no need for a rub; you can cook your prime rib as soon as you get home from the butcher shop.

TL;DR in Russian:

A printed crop top and skirt (or slacks) set is a trendy, flattering style perfect for parties or even school dances. If you pair a printed top with a printed bottom, make sure the prints match exactly! Patterns that are even slightly off will clash. Tie-front tops give a cute, retro vibe and cover a bit more skin than the usual crop top--just a bit of skin will show over your bottoms. You can also make your own tie-front top by tying up a button-down shirt. This is a great way to ease into the crop top look, since you can make the top as short or long as you want. A loose, maxi- or midi-length skirt looks lovely with a short, fitted crop top. Look for one that sits above your belly button on your natural waist for a flattering look for all body types. Looser, high-waisted pants can also pair nicely with a short crop top. Nude or matching high heels or wedges are a must to make your crop top work for a nice party. Add elegance to the look with tasteful jewelry, like pearls or a thin necklace and bracelets. An all-black crop top plus dark leggings or jeans makes for a sleek look, perfect for a night of going out. Pair it with a sporty, zip-up jacket to cover up a bit more, and finish the look with some high black boots.

TL;DR in Russian:

Для продуманного образа выберите топ и низ с узором. Для летнего, более традиционного образа подберите топ, завязывающийся спереди. Наденьте длинную свободную юбку или штаны с завышенной талией. Вместе с кроп-топом наденьте высокие каблуки или туфли на танкетке. Дополните образ красивыми украшениями. На свидание наденьте темный облегающий кроп-топ и низ.


A product in your skincare routine may cause an allergic reaction, pimples, or other irritation. Think about the cosmetics, skin care products, and hair products you use. Cut back on all of them and slowly reintroduce them back into your routine one by one. This way, you can determine which might be causing your skin to break out.  If redness is associated with swelling of the face, especially lips or tongue, or trouble breathing, seek immediate medical attention. In the United States, call 911. Start with the products you have added most recently, since these are the most likely to have triggered a reaction. You can schedule an appointment with an allergist or dermatologist. Either can do a patch test, during which small amounts of chemicals will be applied to the skin and the treated skin will be monitored for a reaction. You may just have sensitive skin. If so, some brands have sensitive-skin product lines; classic examples include the Aveeno Ultra-Calming and Eucerin Redness Relief lines. After you figure out which chemical is at the root of your redness, cut out any product from your routine that contains that chemical as an active or inactive ingredient. Use warm water: both hot and cold water can cause your skin to dry out. If you wash it the wrong way, you can make your skin more irritated and redder. You should wash with a sensitive cleanser, one without fragrance, and avoid any that contain alcohol or other drying agents. Try products such as Cetaphil or Purpose.  Pat dry with a soft towel when done. Do not scrub your face, which can cause your skin to become more irritated.  Try cleansers with sulfates such as Rosanil. These ingredients will help with inflammation.  If your redness involves pimples and you do not have sensitive skin, try products that have benzoyl peroxide such as Clearasil. After washing your face, immediately apply a moisturizing facial cream (or lotion) over the skin to lock in moisture.  You can also store your lotion in the refrigerator and apply it to your face when cold....

A product will usually sell in one of three ways: repeat buys (meaning the customer enjoyed it the first time and went back for more); word-of-mouth (rave reviews from trusted influencers); and advertising. If the quality and usefulness of your product is already high, there's not much you can do to affect repeat buys and word of mouth. That's where advertising comes in. Advertising is a way to build interest in a product by selling a dream of how to use it.  Order business cards and distribute them to everyone you know or meet. Create business pages on social media sites and invite your friends and family to follow you. Encourage them to invite others, and make frequent status updates to keep your followers up to date on your business. If you joined a direct-sales company, review your materials for promotional ideas customized for your brand of products. PPC stands for "pay per click," where you (the advertiser) pay the website on which your ad appears (the publisher) anytime a customer clicks on the link. Increasingly, however, many people are finding it difficult to generate leads with PPC. Social networks, like Facebook and Twitter, offer promotional content or advertisements as well. Social networks like these may be good at branding, but they don't necessarily translate into swift sales. Try both of these methods for yourself, but don't make them your entire advertising budget. Unless you truly want to sell products from your physical home (not recommended), you'll probably want to put the product up for sale online. There are several upsides and several downsides about selling online:  The advantages:  Lower startup costs. You don't have to pay nearly as much for an online domain as you do for a retail store. Listing items on eBay is relatively cheap. Farther reach. Even if you're in New York, you can reach customers from all over the world. Seamless marketing and convenience. Market online, and allow customers to buy with a click or two from the comfort of their living room.   The disadvantages: ...

A professional can help you come up with a plan that will improve your health and take your medical history and allergies into account. If the malnutrition is especially severe, you may need to be tube-fed with a special liquid diet. The damage to your liver may mean that it isn’t able to store energy efficiently. If this has happened to your liver, you will need to eat extra to make up for what your body isn’t able to store.  Eating five to six small meals with healthy snacks may be helpful. Increase your intake of simple carbohydrates by eating fruits and your consumption of complex carbohydrates by eating whole-grain breads, potatoes, corn, peas, parsnips, lentils, beans, and nuts.  You can also supplement carbohydrates with a moderate amount of fat. This will provide you with extra energy.  If you lost weight while drinking, this may be because your body started breaking down muscle tissue to get the nutrients it needed. What your doctor recommends may vary based on how severe the liver damage is.  Some sources recommend an increased amount of protein to provide energy.  Other sources say that because a damaged liver may be unable to process the proteins, this could lead to the accumulation of toxins. In this case, it may be necessary for you to reduce the amount of protein you eat. B vitamins are particularly important, but make sure you also include vitamin K and phosphate and magnesium.  B vitamins are necessary for your body to break down the food you eat and process it into energy. Thiamine, folate, and pyridoxine are types of B vitamins with which you can supplement. Fish, chicken, turkey, meat, eggs, dairy products, beans, peas, and leafy green vegetables have B vitamins.  If you aren’t getting enough vitamins from your diet, your doctor or nutritionist can recommend supplements. Always consult with a medical professional before adding any supplements, even herbal remedies, to be sure that your liver will be able to process it. This will help prevent fluids from building up in your legs, abdomen,...

A professional exterminator will typically have the knowledge to spot a termite infestation before it’s too late. The earlier you catch termites, the easier it is to deal with them.  If you live in a densely wooded area, you may be more prone to termites. Make sure the service is part of the National Pest Control Association or your local or state pest control association.  Ensure that the company offers a guarantee with their service. If you have any sort of organic material made of wood around your house, make sure you’re disposing of it. The longer it’s allowed to stay out, the more likely it will attract termites to your location.  You can make compost out of your landscaping trimmings. Breaking it down will prevent termites from infesting the wood. Another alternative is to contact your local municipality and ask about wood recycling in your area. Termites can enter your house easily if there is wood making contact with the ground. Some examples of this include a wood lattice, wood siding, and door or window frames that make contact with the ground. Anything made of wood should be at least 6 inches (15 cm) above ground level, to prevent termites from getting into your house.  You may have to put a concrete base on some wooded items on your house. Cutting off the base of wood lattice work that touches the ground will help you keep termites out of your house. If you're building a new home make sure to consider getting your house pre-treated for termite prevention. It’s much easier to set a termite barrier with termiticide before you begin construction, by creating the barrier on the land where the house will be. If you live in the southwest U.S., you should highly consider this option, as this is where most termites are found. After locating where you think the termites may be coming from, make sure to fill the holes and treat the surrounding area with termiticide to prevent further termite infestations.  Laying down termite poison around entry points will kill them before they can begin constructing new tunnels.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обращайтесь к специалисту за ежегодной проверкой. Уберите из дома мусор, состоящий из целлюлозы. Устраните контакт дерева с землей. Обработайте дом заранее, чтобы предотвратить появление термитов. Устраните точки проникновения, заделав все трещины в доме.


A prong collar is a training device and not designed for longterm use. It is not your dog's primary collar and should not be used on casual walks or outings.  Use the collar for no more than one hour and only during designated training sessions. Using the collar any longer could irritate your dog's neck.  It is dangerous to use a prong collar as your primary walking collar. Dogs learn by association. If, in the long term, your dog learns to associate pain with pulling he'll also learn to associate negativity with events that cause him to pull. Most friendly dogs pull in response to seeing other people and animals. If a prong collar is used on every walk, your dog will learn to associate people and animals with pain. With time, he'll become timid and even aggressive in the presence of others and might even begin growling and biting. Prong collars are designed for larger, untrained dogs in order to teach leash manners. They are usually a last resort for dogs whose pulling problems are not resolved through other means. Puppies are new to walking and should not start off with the most intense level of training collar. This will only succeed in scaring a puppy. Also, prong collars are not safe until at least 5 or 6 months of age and, even then, they are not recommended unless other training methods have been exhausted.

TL;DR in Russian:

Используйте строгий ошейник не дольше одного часа. Не применяйте строгий ошейник для щенков.


A prong collar is not simply another piece of walking equipment like a harness or a gentle leader. It is a training device. A prong collar should not be used without consulting a professional dog trainer.  A certified dog trainer will likely have experience using  a prong collar or choke chain to discipline a dog. If used incorrectly, prong collars can be ineffective or even painful.  A prong collar is used as part of a longterm training process that teaches your dog why pulling is not appropriate. It should not be used for walks that occur outside of training time. Casually using the collar for walks does not teach your dog pulling is inappropriate. It only teaches him pulling while wearing the prong collar is inappropriate. Talk to a trainer about how and when to best use the collar. Many people are wary of prong collars due to the potential for pain. However, purchasing the right kind of prong collar lessens the likelihood your dog will experience pain while wearing it.  Quality prong collars are designed to gently pinch the loose skin around the dog's neck, providing negative reinforcement in the event of pulling and misbehaving. A good collar will never puncture your dog's skin. The right size is important. Collars are divided by weight distinction, so know how much your dog weighs before selecting a collar. If you buy a collar labeled "For 100-120 pounds" for a 75 pound dog, this is far more likely to cause your dog pain and discomfort than a properly sized collar. Buy a collar from a certified trainer or a certified trainer's website. Prong collars sold at chain stores like Petco are often not as well made and the prongs have sharp rather than rounded edges. This results in puncturing rather than pinching your dog's skin, which can lead to aggression during training sessions. Never buy a prong collar with rubber-tipped prongs. Many people think such an investment is more ethical but rubber can rub against your dog's hair, causing pain. Metal, on the other hand, moves smoothly over a dog's coat.

TL;DR in Russian:

Побеседуйте с профессиональным инструктором по дрессировке собак. Приобретите строгий ошейник.


A proper cleaning after usage removes stains that the moths seek. Wash all clothing, including your synthetics. Empty the pockets of lint. Remove sweat, perfume, and drink stains through your normal washing routine. Heat dry the clothing in a machine dryer to kill off any eggs or larvae present on the clothing. Don't starch your clothing before storage. It'll be food for the moths. Moths cannot get into plastic boxes or bags that are sealed, no matter how stained the clothing. Storing clean clothing in these containers is a great way to protect clothing without depending on toxic mothballs. You may see some people swear by cedar scents or chests. The scents don't work, and the chests only work because they function as sealed containers. Once or twice a month, take out clothing not sealed in containers. Set them in a dryer and put them through a drying cycle. Otherwise, allow them to be exposed to the sun for a few hours. The heat neutralizes moth eggs. After exposing the clothing to heat once or twice a month, jostle free any existing insects. Give the clothing a good, hard shake. Alternatively, pass a brush over all sides of the clothing to remove any hidden eggs and larvae.

TL;DR in Russian:

Регулярно стирайте вещи. Храните одежду в герметичной таре. Раз в месяц обдавайте одежду теплом. Тщательно почистите одежду, чтобы убрать личинки.


A proper diet for red-eared turtles (and similar aquatic turtle species) should have the following proportions: vegetables and water plants 50 percent, commercial foods 25 percent, and live protein 25 percent. Red eared turtles are happy to store-bought food turtle food, as well as food you've foraged for them.  Good vegetable choices include: dandelions (the ones in your yard are good if you don't use pesticides), carrot tops, mustard greens, romaine lettuce, carrots, bell pepper, and squash. The best greens are water plants like anacharis, water hyacinth, water lettuce, Frogbit, hornwort, and duckweed. While expensive in a pet store, these are easy to grow in a separate tank or pond, and they are cheap if you buy in bulk online. Red eared turtles don't usually eat fruit in the wild, so avoid it except for an absolute treat. If giving a treat, bananas are a good choice. For commercial food, look for something that has low protein and low fat. Dried shrimp are an absolute no-no! While turtles love the taste of dried shrimp, they offer no nutrients and turtles may refuse other foods for weeks. There are various conditions and diseases that can occur if the tank water is dirty, if the turtle's diet is poor or for other reasons. Some more common problems to watch for include:   Eye infections: The eyes will appear closed, swollen, puffed up or discharging. You may see pieces of tissue coming off. Eye infections are caused by bacteria. The turtle should be seen by a vet and probably needs a topical antibiotic plus upgrading the tank's filtration system.  Soft shell: If your turtle's shell is softer than it's supposed to be, your slider may not be getting enough light from your overhead light. If this happens, the turtle's dock may be too small, the water may be too deep, or the turtle is too weak to get on the dock. If this happens, contact your vet or a pet store. It can also mean that it has metabolic bone disease.  Furry mouth and refusal to eat: Your turtle has a bacterial infection and should be seen by...

TL;DR in Russian:

Кормите красноухую черепаху подходящим кормом. Обращайте внимание на признаки появления проблем со здоровьем у черепахи. Периодически выносите черепаху на улицу под прямое солнце. Проводите время вместе со своей черепахой.


A proper personal flotation device should be a jacket or vest that covers the chest, stomach and back. The life vest must be properly fitted so that it does not slip up on the body when falling.  It should fit snugly but not be uncomfortable. Be sure to check the manufacturer’s label for weight limits and sizing information. You will want a pair of combination skis, which are suitable for beginners and have two skis with one ski having a half-foot binding behind the other foot. Skis for beginners will usually be wider and thus more stable on the water. They will be made for different weight ranges so it is important to pick a water ski that suits your size.  Check the manufacturer recommendations for the recommended weight ranges for the particular skis you are looking at. Kids skis are different in that they are smaller and easier for small children to control. They will usually come with a “trainer” option, or when you tie the skies together to prevent the skier from losing their balance and performing the splits. The bindings will usually be adjustable for a range of sizes to fit a variety of people. Trainer skis for kids can often be tied together, preventing the child from doing the “splits”. Kids usually have a hard time keeping control over their skis and keeping them together so this can be incredibly helpful when beginning. A water skiing rope will have a little stretch only and be 75 feet (22.86 meters) long from the handle to the opposite end. Do not use a wakeboarding rope, which will have no stretch, or a rope that is too stretchy. The rope should be labelled and marketed specifically for water skiing. There are seven different hand signals that a skier should learn. These are important for signalling the boat driver while water skiing.  A thumbs-up means go faster while a thumbs-down means slow down. It is important to remember this while skiing so that you do not accidentally ask for more speed. Bring thumb and forefinger together to signal OK. This tells the driver that the speed and path are...

TL;DR in Russian:

Надевайте спасательный жилет. Приобретите водные лыжи. Рассмотрите возможность скрепить лыжи между собой. Используйте правильный трос. Выучите необходимые сигналы. Обзаведитесь в целях безопасности флагом для водных лыж. Научитесь правильному положению, для начала на берегу.


A proper seduction cannot take place if you're in a crowded area. To be intimate, you need an intimate space. This could be at the end of a night at a party together, or after one of you has invited the other over. A quiet, private setting is important because you don't want any external pressures affecting the way the seduction is received. Even if someone wants to be seduced, they may feel shy about it if they think their friends will be there to see it happen. Even if your friend finds you physically attractive, you will have a hard time of properly seducing them if you're bringing their mood down. Emphasize your positive side. This can be done as simply as making a conscious decision to be pleasant around the person you would like to seduce. Being cheerful leads to opportunities to flirt more openly, whether you consciously mean to or not. A proper seduction is very rarely a serious thing. Touch is an important part of flirting. It's the way that's going to break the two of you past the barrier between friends and something more. Light touching can include anything from a hug to a brief touch on the arm. These movements aren't risking a lot, and you can usually tell from the way they're reacting to it whether they'll accept bolder gestures. You can try to keep your flirtations subtle if you want to save the chance of pulling back if you decide your affections aren't being reciprocated. While it's normal to make eye contact with a friend while you're talking, prolonged eye contact usually hints at something more. Studies have shown that holding someone's gaze for an extended amount of time can provoke intense feelings. Even if you normally spend time with this friend, make a point of keeping eye contact while you seduce them. The reaction of eye contact can be positive or negative. A lot of it depends on whether the other person finds you physically attractive. If the friend you want to seduce is already close and comfortable enough with you, regular conversation should come naturally to the two of you....

TL;DR in Russian:

Дождитесь встречи наедине. Создайте легкую и непринужденную обстановку. Выражайте свой интерес посредством легких прикосновений. Смотрите в глаза. Флиртуйте во время разговоров. Оцените реакцию друга. Сделайте смелый шаг. Приготовьтесь к тому, что не вы соблазняете друга, а друг соблазняет вас.


A prototype usually focuses on the main feature of the program. For example, if you're creating a personal organizer program, your prototype may be the calendar and event-adding function. Your prototype should be able to be used as its own program. It will be the foundation of everything else, so make sure its working properly. As you iterate on the feature, continue to refine it until it works smoothly and efficiently.  The prototype allows you to make rapid changes and then test them out. Have others test your prototype to ensure that it functions properly. Expect the prototype to change as you work on it. The whole point of the prototype is to experiment before committing. The prototype allows you to see if the features you want are possible before you dive into coding the program proper. If the prototype is doomed to fail, scrap it and return to the drawing board. It will save you a lot of headache down the line

TL;DR in Russian:

Сделайте акцент на какой-то одной функции программы. Добейтесь того, чтобы прототип работал без сбоев. Не бойтесь перерабатывать прототип снова и снова.


A proxy is a server that you connect to that allows you to get “outside” of your network. You connect to a proxy and route your traffic through it, so that your IP is masked and traffic appears to be coming from the proxy server. There are several types of proxies that you will run into as you research proxies. Each offers a certain degree of anonymity, and some are more secure than others. There are four main types of proxies:  Web-based proxies: The most common and easiest to use proxy. These are servers that you connect to through a browser do visit a visit a website anonymously. Open proxies: These are proxy servers that are either accidentally left open or are hacked. They are often not secure and can contain malicious software. It is recommended that you avoid open proxies. Anonymity networks: These are private networks that are run by users donating bandwidth. They are often incredibly slow and due to the fact that anyone can host bandwidth, they are fairly insecure. VPN (Virtual Private Network): These are private networks where you directly connect to a proxy server maintained by a proxy company or organization.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поймите суть прокси. Умейте разобраться в видах прокси.


A proxy is a website, often based in a different location than you, that will let you access other sites through it.  So if your proxy is in the USA, and you access Facebook through it, it should be like accessing Facebook in the USA.  Here is a list of free proxies for you to try. You should try them first, because why pay - but you may find they're not a great solution to access Facebook in China because:  China keeps finding and blocking them too. They often don't have good enough programming to handle the technology of social media Benefit of a proxy like this (as opposed to a VPN, which we talked about in the previous step) is that there's nothing to install on your computer - it's all web-based.

TL;DR in Russian:

Попробуйте бесплатные прокси-серверы. Попробуйте защищенный прокси.

A psychiatrist or family physician can perform an examination and speak with you about why you feel you might need antidepressants to treat your health condition. In most cases, meeting with a psychiatrist is considered ideal since psychiatrists specialize in mental health disorders, have more experience working with antidepressants, and can prescribe the antidepressants that will work best for you.  Research local psychiatrists who are covered under your insurance plan and set up an appointment by phone or online. You can get a referral from your primary care physician to go to a psychiatrist or you can find one by using a site like ZocDoc or Thero.org. Providing as many details as possible can give your doctor the insight needed to correctly diagnose your disorder and prescribe the right type of antidepressant.  For example, those diagnosed with bipolar disorder may need two different medications to manage manic and depressive phases, but someone with anxiety disorder may need one specific type. Mention physical symptoms of depression such as insomnia and lack of energy, as well as mental symptoms such as sadness or feelings of helplessness. Identifying the cause of your stress and depression can help your doctor properly diagnose and treat your condition and prescribe the right type of medication.  Be honest with your doctor when asked if there are any stressors in your life. For instance, perhaps you are in a toxic relationship currently that has caused you to become depressed.  Mention this to your doctor. It’s important to let your doctor know how long you’ve been experiencing symptoms of depression. In most cases, individuals who’ve been experiencing long-term stress are the best candidates for antidepressants. Those experiencing short-term stress or depression due to being separated from a partner or laid off from work may not be considered ideal candidates. Let them know of any medications that you’re currently on, including vitamins and birth control.  This can help your doctor better understand...

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратитесь за врачебной помощью. Расскажите о своих симптомах как можно подробнее. Объясните врачу, какие жизненные обстоятельства являются причиной вашего стресса и депрессии. Расскажите врачу, как долго длятся симптомы. Опишите все способы, которыми вы пытались справиться с симптомами. Подготовьте заранее вопросы и предложения, касающиеся лечения. Получите рецепт или несколько рецептов для покупки препаратов, которые назначил вам психиатр. Купите назначенный вам препарат в аптеке. Поддерживайте контакт с врачом. Получите второе мнение врача, если чувствуете такую необходимость.


A psychopath may end a conversation with a statement that opposes what they said at the beginning. Dishonesty and pathological lying is a sign of psychopathy. The person may talk about how disrespectful it is that your coworker always shows up late and does things they are not supposed to, and then moments later the person will break the rules without apology. The contradictions may not occur within the same conversation, so keep track of what is said over time. Log in a journal important information that you think might later be contradicted. Psychopaths talk excessively about the people in their lives because they view them as extensions of themselves. A psychopath will lie about the people in their life; they will even lie about their children.   Psychopaths are prone to giving out half-truths or disinformation. They have no problem keeping important information away from you. If the person has told you stories of betrayal or tragedy to explain their damaged family, friend, or romantic relationships, see if you can verify these stories independently. A psychopath refuses to take responsibility for their own actions and will blame others for things they have done.  If there is irrefutable evidence that they are at fault, they may then admit it, but will show no remorse.  A psychopath will also try very hard to control the narrative by professing an altered version of events, which may be very different from what you experienced. This can cause you to question yourself and is known as "gaslighting." On the other hand, because the psychopath displays a grandiose sense of self-worth, they may brag about or inflate their achievements, or even take credit for the work of others. Notice if they quickly and smoothly change topics when you broach a subject that might reveal their anti-sociality. They may rapidly dismiss discussions of their odd behavior by accusing you of causing too much drama, or by insisting that you are mentally ill and need professional help.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обращайте внимание на противоречия в речи. Перепроверяйте сказанное. Обратите внимание на то, как они постоянно ищут козла отпущения. Обращайте внимание на резкие смены тем разговора.


A pulse oximetry test can give the saturation of oxygen in your blood by transmitting light through your tissues. It  You may need to have your blood oxygen level tested prior to surgery or other medical procedures, or if you have certain conditions, such as:  Sleep apnea A heart attack or congestive heart failure Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Anemia Lung cancer Asthma Pneumonia Cystic fibrosis A current or possible need for mechanical ventilation to support your breathing The pulse oximetry method of measuring blood oxygen level is non-invasive, so there is usually little you need to do to prepare for the test. However, your doctor will still discuss the test with you and answer any questions you may have.  You may be asked to remove fingernail polish, if applicable. Your doctor may give you other specific instructions for preparation, based on your medical condition and history. There are very few risks associated with pulse oximetry. These are minimal, but include:  Skin irritation at the application site. This may occur with prolonged or repeated application of the probe sensor. Inaccurate readings in cases of smoke or carbon monoxide inhalation. Your doctor can let you know if there are any additional risks, based on your specific medical condition. The sensor used to measure the oxygen level of blood by pulse oximetry is a clip-like device called a probe. The probe sensor contains a light source, a light detector, and a microprocessor. The light emitted from the source on one side of the clip passes through your skin and reaches the detector on the other side of the clip. The microprocessor does calculations based on the information received from the detector in order to calculate the oxygen level of your blood with a very small margin of error. Usually, a finger, ear, or nose is chosen as the site to attach the sensor. The sensor will then use light to measure the oxygen level of your blood.  This method has the advantage of being painless and noninvasive, since no needles are involved. ...

A quadratic equation is an equation that takes the form ax2+bx+c=0{\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c=0}. A quadratic equation has two solutions, which means a line written in this form is a parabola and will have two x-intercepts. For example, the equation x2+3x−10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0} is a quadratic equation, so this line will have two x-intercepts. The formula is x=−b±b2−4ac2a{\displaystyle x={\frac {-b\pm {\sqrt {b^{2}-4ac}}}{2a}}}, where a{\displaystyle a} equals the coefficient of the second-degree term (x2{\displaystyle x^{2}}), b{\displaystyle b} equals the coefficient of the first-degree term (x{\displaystyle x}), and c{\displaystyle c} equals the constant. Make sure you substitute the correct values for each variable from the equation of the line. For example, if the equation of your line is x2+3x−10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0}, your quadratic formula will look like this: x=−3±32−4(1)(−10)2(1){\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}-4(1)(-10)}}}{2(1)}}}. To do this, first complete all of the multiplication. Make sure you pay close attention to all positive and negative signs. For example:x=−3±32−4(−10)2(1){\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}-4(-10)}}}{2(1)}}}x=−3±32+402{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}+40}}}{2}}} Square the b{\displaystyle b} term. Then, add this number to the other number under the square root sign. For example:x=−3±32+402{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}+40}}}{2}}}x=−3±9+402{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {9+40}}}{2}}}x=−3±492{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {49}}}{2}}} Since the quadratic formula has a ±{\displaystyle \pm }, you will solve once by adding, and once by subtracting. Solving by adding will give you your first x{\displaystyle x} value. For example:x=−3+492{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3+{\sqrt {49}}}{2}}}x=−3+72{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3+7}{2}}}x=42{\displaystyle x={\frac {4}{2}}}x=2{\displaystyle x=2} This will give you the second value for x{\displaystyle x}. First calculate the square root, then find the difference in...

A quadratic equation means that you have at least one variable that is squared. It will typically be written in the formula y=ax(squared)+bx+c.  Graphing a quadratic equation will give you a parabola, which is a ‘U’ shaped curve. You will need to find at least three point to graph it, beginning with the vertex which is the centermost point. If we use the example y=x(squared)+2x+1, then a=1, b=2, and c=1. Each letter corresponds to the number directly before the variable it sits next to in the equation. If there is no number before ‘x’ in the equation, then the variable is equal to ‘1’ because it is assumed that there is 1x. To find the vertex, the point in the middle of the parabola, use the formula -b/2a. In our example, this equation would change to -2/2(1), which equals to -1. You now know the vertex, -1, which is a point on the x-axis. However, this is only one point of the vertex coordinate. To find the corresponding y-coordinate as well as two other points on your parabola, you will need to make a table. Place the x-coordinate for the vertex in the top center column. Choose two more x-coordinates an equal number in each direction (positive and negative) from the vertex point. For example, we could go up two and down two, making the two numbers we fill in the other blank table spaces ‘-3’ and ‘1’. You can choose any numbers you want to fill in the top row of the table, as long as they are whole numbers and the same distance from the vertex. If you want to have a clearer graph, you can find five coordinates instead of three. Doing this is the same process as above, but give your table five columns instead of three. One at a time, take the numbers you have selected to represent the x-coordinates from your table and insert them into the original equation. Solve for ‘y’.  Following our example, we could use our chosen coordinate of ‘-3’ to substitute into the original formula of y=x(squared)+2x+1. This would change to y= -3(squared)+2(3)+1, giving an answer of y=4. Place the new y-coordinate underneath the...
