The citric acid in lemon juice is a natural bleaching agent which could possibly be used help to lighten the skin, if used carefully. It's critically important to avoid going out in the sun with citrus juice on your skin, however, which can cause a painful reaction called "phytophotodermatitis."<  Squeeze the juice from half a lemon and dilute it to half strength with water. Dip a cotton ball in the liquid and apply the lemon juice to your face, or wherever you wish to lighten the skin. Leave the lemon juice to sit on the skin for 15 to 20 minutes. Do not go outside during this time, as the juice makes your skin hyper-sensitive to sunlight. Thoroughly rinse your skin when you're done, then apply a good moisturizer as lemon juice can be very drying. Repeat this treatment 2 to 3 times a week (no more) for best results. Turmeric is an Indian spice which has been used in skin lightening treatments for thousands of years. While the effects haven't been studied, turmeric is believed to inhibit melanin production, thereby preventing the skin from becoming tanned.  Mix turmeric with some olive oil and chickpea flour to form a paste. Apply the paste to the skin using gentle circular motions. This will help to exfoliate the skin. Leave the turmeric paste to sit on the skin for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing off. The Turmeric may stain your skin slightly yellow, but this should quickly wear off. Repeat this treatment once or twice a week for best results. You can also use turmeric in your Indian cooking!  You can also cook with turmeric or use it to make teas and smoothies. It is very beneficial to your skin when it's ingested. Raw potato is believed to have mild bleaching properties, due to its high vitamin C content. Vitamin C is used as a lightening ingredient in many OTC skin creams. To use:  Simply cut a raw potato in half, then rub the exposed flesh over the skin you wish to lighten. Leave the potato juice to sit on the skin for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing. You will need to repeat this treatment several times...

TL;DR in Russian:

The citric acid in lemons attacks the pigments in your skin responsible for a red or discolored blemish, evening it out. Lemon juice will make blemishes less noticeable, but it can also lighten your skin tone and make you susceptible to sun damage, so always wear sunscreen when you go out.  Mix tomato juice and lemon juice together and apply to face with a cotton swab regularly. Wash away with cool water after 10 minutes. This mix will reduce blemishes and lighten any facial hairs over time. Mix together 2 tablespoons of honey and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice along with a pinch of turmeric. Wash away with cool water after 10 minutes. If applied regularly, this mixture works well. Rub a lemon peel along with a bit of sugar over your skin. Let it sit for 10 minutes before washing away with cool water. Mix together a paste of sandalwood powder and water, applying to face. Leave for 10 to 20 minutes before rinsing off with cool water. Just be careful because sandalwood can dry out your face. Leave for 15 minutes before washing away with cool water. Your blemishes should get smaller and/or less noticeable. Papaya and banana contain the enzymes papain and bromelain in addition to other acids that help minimize the presence of blemishes. Extremely effective in combating the redness of blemishes, rosehip oil can be applied in low doses to the face for 15 minutes every day before washing off with cool water.

TL;DR in Russian:

Воспользуйтесь чудесной силой лимонов. Используйте смесь порошка сандалового дерева с водой. Потрите кожу кожурой папайи или банана. Используйте масло семян шиповника.


The citric acid in lemons does have natural lightening components. Unfortunately, the process will take some time. If you want to speed the process up, try using hydroquinone, kojic acid, alpha-hydroxy acids, or bearberry as lightening agents. Be warned, however: There are some risks associated with some of these products. One study showed that 1 out of every 4 skin lightening products made in Asia but sold in the U.S. contained mercury. When using lemon and other skin-lightening products, always use sunscreen and avoid unnecessary time in the sun.  Lemons and lemon juice can dry out skin, making it susceptible to sun damage. Lightening your skin with lemon juice will take a long time, so it's tempting to try to apply a mask or lemon juice every day. Try to stick to 3-4 applications every week. Lemon juice dries out the skin too much to apply every day. Some sources say that lemon juice kills the bacteria that produce acne while simultaneously clearing up acne scars. Lemon juice may do this, but it may also interfere with any topical treatments you are using for acne. Talk to your doctor about coupling your acne treatment with lemon juice. Much of what you put on your skin gets absorbed into your body. If you are using other ingredients besides lemon juice as a peel, a wash, a lotion, or a mask, use good judgment about whether you'd want it in your bloodstream.

TL;DR in Russian:

Лимон действительно осветляет кожу, но для этого понадобится время. Избегайте воздействия солнечного света. Попробуйте использовать лимон или лимонный сок через день. Лимонный сок может помочь в борьбе с угрями, но обсудите применение этого метода с врачом. Знайте, что вы наносите на кожу.


The class clown is usually a pretty popular kid, as is the prankster who's always making people laugh. Being genuinely funny is a hard thing to do, but it's an important part of getting other people to like you. Act funny and go with the joke the other person says. And don't constantly joke around or do pranks or the other person will get annoyed, bored, or frustrated with the pranks you are doing.

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте веселым(ой), но не ведите себя как полный идиот(ка).


The class you choose will depend on what function you want to perform within the group.  There are several classes specific to each role:   Tank: Tanks are the players with a lot of armor and hit points that take all the damage on them when fighting several mobs at once or a very powerful mob (bosses or elites). Choose:  Protection Warriors Blood Death Knights Protection Paladins Guardian Druids. Brewmaster Monks. Vengeance Demon Hunters.    DPS (damage per second): Damage dealers, as the name implies, are players who are responsible for dealing damage in the group. It is almost always abbreviated as DPS (Damage per second) or DPSer in-game. DPS can be separated into two large groups:  Those who do damage mostly to nearby enemies, or, as we call, enemies in melee range. Those who do damage to enemies usually from a far distance.   Types of Ranged DPS:  Balance Druids. Beast Mastery and Marksmanship Hunters. Arcane, Fire, and Frost Mages. Shadow Priests. Elemental Shamans. Affliction, Destruction, and Demonology Warlocks.   Types of Melee DPS:  Frost and Unholy Death Knights. Enhancement Shamans. Feral Druids. Havoc Demon Hunters. Retribution Paladins. Assassination, Outlaw and Subtlety Rogues. Survival Hunters. Fury and Arms Warriors. Windwalker Monks    Healer: A healer is a character whose primary combat purpose is to heal friendly creatures or give them defensive buffs. Priests, Druids, Paladins, Monks, and Shamans can all serve as healers. Healers are typically the second most in-demand role for a dungeon or a raid, after tanks. Choose:  Discipline and Holy Priests Restoration Druids. Holy Paladins Restoration Shamans. Mistweaver Monks.

The classic date is to spend a nice meal together with her.  Pick her up in your car and drive her to the restaurant.  Open the doors for her.  This is a great moment to ask her questions, and have lively conversation.  Look at her eyes as you are speaking and listening.  Compliment her on that nice dress she is wearing.  Do not go out to places like movie theaters until at least your second date.  For a first date you aren't looking at each other, and there isn't a chance to talk to one another.  When it comes to later dates, movies can be fun experiences and give you guys something to talk about. Bring her some flowers right when you walk up to her at the door.  It's a great kick-starter, and will start your date out tremendously. First dates are usually never times to inquire about sex.  However, you should hold her hand, perhaps during dinner, or the car ride back home.  An older girl may make the first move herself, but you want to exude confidence.  After you get her back home, walk her to her front door.  Kiss her on the lips good night.  As you are kissing her, move your hand behind her head.  A first kiss good night should only last about 5-6 seconds.  You do not want to make the situation awkward, or make her feel as if you want more. Do not simply peck her on the lips or cheek.  Use a little bit of tongue and show that you feel something for her.  She will want more, and will be more open to dates in the future. Know that an older girl may be further along sexually, and she may have had more experience in this area than you.  Decide upon your level of intimacy as you get to know her better.  If you are not ready for further advancement, be upfront about it.  If you are willing, go with the flow.  Listen to her needs, and feel free to express your desires.  Remember that older girls are mature, and will want to practice safe sex.  Always have a condom ready in case the moment is right. Open, honest relationships are built on a good sex life.  If you can't be happy here, the relationship probably...

TL;DR in Russian:

Сводите ее в хороший ресторан. Потихоньку двигайтесь к физическому контакту. Подготовьте себя к более серьезным этапам близости. Не подчеркивайте разницу в возрасте. Продолжайте напоминать своей девушке, как вы ее любите.


The classic flapper look is all about the dress--specifically the shift dress. The flapper-dress silhouette is a dress that features a drop waist (the waistline was often dropped to the hips), straight vertical lines that hang loosely around the body, a scooped neckline that reveals the neck and shoulders, minimal or no sleeves, and a hemline falling just at or above the knees (a scandalously short length for the time). The two classic flapper-dress options are a fringed dress and a beaded shift dress.  Though fringe is perhaps most readily associated with flapper fashion, Egyptian-inspired designs and embellishments were also quite popular at the time (inspired by the recent discovery of King Tutankhamen’s tomb), so keep an eye out for dresses and fabrics with a slight Egyptian feel.  If you opt for the classic fringe dress, your easiest option is to buy one ready-to-wear in a vintage color--typically black, white, gold, or silver. If you prefer to craft your own dress and are handy at sewing, you can begin with a solid-colored dress that matches the flapper silhouette. If you plan to make an entirely fringe-covered dress, buy several yards of fringe (you’ll need anywhere from 6-9 yards, depending on your size and your margin of error) and sew them in consecutive horizontal rows over the length of the dress. If you prefer just a trim of fringe along the bottom, buy a yard or so of fringe and attach it just around the hem of your dress. For even more details on making your own flapper dress, see How to Make a Flapper Dress. The 1920s saw a major increase in the profile of footwear, since, given the rising hemlines, shoes were a particularly visible part of the flapper outfit.  The most popular shoes of the flapper era featured a heel of at least two inches, in either an ankle-strap Mary-Jane or T-strap style, sometimes adorned with sequins or beads. Flapper fashion was oriented around dancing, so choose shoes that are danceable with covered toes and chunky heels--no stilettos! You might opt for flats if you...

TL;DR in Russian:

The classic treasure hunt clue is a simple couplet, or rhyming lines. These can be easy, like "To find your first clue, look by the glue," or more opaque, such as "We travel together, one black and one white, you only meet us when the food isn't right" (by the salt and pepper). Draw or take photos of places they should investigate, figuring out where the actual location is. This is a great clue for younger kids, as it lets them get moving quickly. For the older crowd, you can up the ante by using vintage photos, satellite shots, or extreme close-ups for a more difficult hunt. For example, you could get three identical cups. Show the kids which cup you are hiding the clue under, then rapidly mix around the cups. The kids then have to guess which cup contains the clue. You can run egg races, small obstacle courses, or mini scavenger hunts as well, giving out the clue only once the game is complete. This can be a good way to break up the middle of a hunt. Send them off on the first 4-5 clues, then go set up the game for the middle. After the game is over, they can get some food, water, and sunblock before hitting the next 4-5 clues. The simplest way to make invisible ink is to write something in white crayon, then have the kids go over it with highlighter. You can also make invisible ink, letting the kids figure out what to do with the "blank" clue on their own. For kids of all ages, you could turn all of the lights off in a room so it is pitch black. Tell the kids to search for the clues with flashlights or by feeling around. You might dunk the clues in a bowl of wet spaghetti "brains," forcing kids to go dig through. If you have some waterproof clues, you can put them in the bottom of the pool, giving kids a chance to jump in and swim (as long as they are supervised). Anything that makes them move and try out different things will be a blast. For example, you can get custom-made puzzles cheaply online, which you can print with a clue. Then, at each smaller clue, you give out a puzzle piece, which build up to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Придумайте разные подсказки – срифмуйте их в загадки. Разнообразьте подсказки изображениями и картинками. Включите в некоторые подсказки мини-игры.

The cleaner your socks are, the better they will conduct electricity. If your socks are wet or dirty, they will not have as much traction with the floor and may not make static electricity.  Warm socks that just came out of the dryer are best for conducting electricity. While most socks can conduct static electricity, wool socks generally work best. Electronic items contain microchips that can malfunction or become permanently destroyed by static electricity. Before touching any electronic items, take off your socks and touch something else to discharge any static electricity. Even if your electronic device has a protective case, it may still be vulnerable to static shocks.

TL;DR in Russian:

Наденьте на ноги чистые сухие носки. Не прикасайтесь к электронике.


The cleaning approach is dependent on the material of the mortar and pestle. Check the instructions that came with the mortar and pestle you bought to ensure you clean it properly. Here are some broad advisories:  For a dishwasher-safe mortar and pestle, simply place in the usual dishwasher cycle. If it is not dishwasher-safe (such as a wooden set), clean with warm water. Dry it completely before storing. For a dry grind, it may be sufficient to simply brush out with a clean cloth or paper towel. Since most mortar and pestles are a little porous, soap can leave an ill-tasting residue that can get mixed in with your spices next time you grind something. Wiping it out with warm water, then drying it thoroughly should do the trick. Sometimes it's difficult to remove smells and stains from strong spices. A good trick is to pour some dry white rice into the mortar, then use the pestle to grind it finely. The rice will probably take on the color and smell of the last spice you processed. Discard the rice, then repeat the process until the ground rice remains white and odor-free after the grinding.

TL;DR in Russian:

Очищайте ступку и пестик после использования. Не используйте моющие средства без необходимости. Попробуйте использовать сухой рис для избавления от въевшихся запахов и пятен.


The clothes you wear can really have an effect on your self-esteem. For example, wearing a superhero costume can boost confidence and make people feel stronger; women perform better on a math test in a sweater than in a swimsuit; and a white coat gives people more “mental agility.”  Focus on wearing clothes that make you feel comfortable, such as a nice soft sweater, your favorite jeans, and a suit and tie (or something else professional looking). Examine your wardrobe and make sure your clothes fit your style. If they don’t, you may need to go shopping!  If you dislike shopping in public or don’t know what is in style, consider a service that selects clothes for you and sends them to your house or find an online retailer with an easy free return policy. Wear colors that you like.  Doing so will help boost your mood. If you can’t decide on a color you like, a good go-to color is blue because people general respond positively to it. Find outfits that will look good to you when you look in a mirror because they match your body type or include accessories that show off your good features. There is no perfect body type, but there are good and bad clothes for particular body types. Clothes that fit because they match your type are more likely to look good on you.  If you are very skinny, avoid wearing dark colors, such as black, which are slimming.  Wear lighter colors instead.  Slim women should try to create some curve by belting a flowing dress in the center. Thin men should avoid wearing large or baggy clothing to add the appearance of bulk; dressing in the appropriate size will look better.  If you have broad shoulders and narrow hips, avoid scarves with patterns (calling attention to your shoulders), shirts that accentuate your shoulders, and footwear that looks small for your body type, but do wear pants that make your hips look bigger and shoes with wider heels or boots with buckles that call attention to your feet. If your body is pear-shaped, wear bright colors or patterns on top and dark, solid colors...

TL;DR in Russian:

Носите одежду подходящего размера или подгоняйте ее в ателье согласно особенностям фигуры. Найдите правильную губную помаду. Наносите макияж сообразно форме своего лица. Сделайте хорошую прическу. Уход за своей внешностью очень важен.


The clothing should be loose enough to allow full range of motion, but not baggy enough to snag on branches. Remove all loose jewelry and accessories, especially from around your neck, as these may snag during the climb. If possible, wear flexible shoes with good traction. If your shoes have hard soles or poor traction, climbing barefoot might be easier. Find a tree with large, strong branches that can support your weight, at least 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter. Before you start the climb, step back far enough to inspect the whole tree. Avoid trees with any of the following signs of danger:  Strange shapes or turns in the trunk. Leaning trees are risky but sometimes safe. Deep cracks. Large areas of sunken or missing bark. A forked top is a sign of decay in conifers. Other types of tree might still be safe, but do not try to reach the fork. Approach the tree and inspect the lower trunk and the circle of ground 3 feet (0.9 meters) around it. These are all signs of a damaged or dying tree that is unsafe to climb:   Mushrooms or other fungus growing on the tree or around the base. Many dead branches on the ground. (A few dead branches attached to the lower trunk is common, but if they're falling from higher up, there's a more serious problem.) A large hole or several small ones in the base. Severed roots, or a raised or cracked area of soil next to the trunk (a sign of uprooting). Even if the tree is sturdy, weather conditions could make the climb more dangerous. Understand how the following affect your climb:  Never climb during a thunderstorm, or in strong wind. Wet conditions can make the tree slippery and very dangerous to climb. Cold temperatures make wood brittle. Plan on climbing slowly and testing every branch before you use it as support. There's one last safety step before you can get started. Look closely for the following dangers. These can be difficult to spot from the ground, so keep an eye out while climbing as well.  Never climb if there is a power line within 10 feet (3 meters) of the tree's...

The cloudy, brown film you see in some bottles of apple cider vinegar is called “the mother”, and it’s a good thing. It means the vinegar is of high quality, and contains extra healing nutrients that will make it even more effective. You will want enough so that you can stick both your feet in. If more volume is needed, consider adding warm water, being sure to not dilute the vinegar beyond one part vinegar to one part water. If you do not have apple cider vinegar, you can also use white vinegar. Rinse your feet with soap and water. Once your feet are scrubbed clean, dry them off with a towel or let them air-dry. If you choose to use a towel, make sure to wash it immediately after you use it so that it can’t spread the fungus to other parts of your body. Place your foot in the large bowl of vinegar mix. The acid of the vinegar will kill the fungus, as well as soften and break down the calluses it causes. If you want, you can use a washcloth to gently scrub the infected spot while your foot soaks in the mixture. 5% vinegar should not be too harsh for your skin. However, if you feel burning or a rash occurs, stop soaking your foot and add water to dilute the mixture. You should do this two to three times a day for seven days. Once those seven days are up, continue to soak your foot for one to two times a day for three more days. After the 10 to 30 minutes have passed, take your foot out of the bowl and dry it. If your infected spot is very small, you can also dip a cotton ball or washcloth into the solution and rub the infected spot. Press the cloth on the fungus and hold it there for several minutes, then dip it back into the mixture and repeat. Do this twice a day for 10 to 30 minutes at a time. The acid in vinegar can be hard on your skin. To protect it, consider applying a thin layer of moisturizer after treating your feet.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подержите ноги в растворе 10–30 минут. Уксус можно применять даже при маленьком очаге инфекции. После процедуры нанесите увлажняющий крем, поскольку уксус сушит кожу.


The clover leaf builds off the tongue roll. Roll your tongue into a tube. Then, pull the tip of your tongue back. As you pull it back, press the bottom of your tongue against the inside of your lower lip.  To complete this, you may have to stretch your lips wide. Turn them down slightly to get enough tension to press again. This also gives you enough space to see your tongue. Use your fingers while you are learning. Roll your tongue into a tube. Place your fingers about a centimeter apart under your tongue. Pinch together the tip of your tongue. This helps your tongue start to learn the formation of the clover leaf. This trick gives the illusion of two separate ends of a tongue. Start with your tongue flat and slightly sticking out of your lips. Slide your tongue into your mouth, and put the tip of your tongue behind your teeth. Pull the middle of your tongue down so that the edges pop up. Close your lips around your tongue so that the only thing showing is two sides of your tongue.  Use your finger to push down the middle of your tongue if it keeps popping into view. The trick is to have only the two sides visible. You can also achieve this by rolling your tongue. Roll your tongue into a tube. Push the edges of the tongue nearest to the lips past the lips. The rolled shape helps keep the rest of the tongue out of sight. This trick uses some of the same movements as the clover. Start with the tip of your tongue behind your bottom teeth. Push the middle of your tongue down while pushing forward. This should create a fold along your tongue just above your teeth. Paired with the line down the center of your tongue, this crease makes an upside down T.

TL;DR in Russian:

The clutch is located in front of the left handgrip. It is responsible for transferring torque from the engine to the transmission. The throttle located on the right hand grip. Rolling on the throttle increases the engine RPM to prevent the engine from stalling. The gear shift is a bar located in front of the left foot pedal. It is responsible for switching between gears. Practice the following:  Squeeze the clutch lever in, then slowly ease it out. Roll the throttle towards the back of the motorcycle ("roll on") to go faster. Roll the throttle towards the front of the motorcycle ("roll off") to go slower. Press down on the gear shift to put the motorcycle into first gear. This only works if you are in neutral or second gear, otherwise, pressing down the gear shift will only take you to a lower gear. Move the gear shift upwards to reach the remaining gears. The predominant gear pattern for manual motorcycles is one down, and four or five up. Neutral is found between first and second gear.

The coal will heat up and the lighter fluid will burn off. You’re ready to start cooking once the coal is a white-gray color and glowing red at the center.  Wait until the coals are ready to begin grilling. If you start cooking your food before the lighter fluid burns off, your steak or chicken will taste like petroleum!  Do not add more lighter fluid to your grill once the coals are burning. It won’t make the fire heat up faster and you may burn your hands.

The coaxial cable has a connection that resembles a needle on each end. This will plug into the cable output. Make sure that you screw the coaxial cable onto the cable outlet to ensure that the connection is solid. On the back of the modem, you should see an input that resembles the cable output cylinder. Attach the free end of the coaxial cable to this input, making sure to tighten as needed. A wall socket or a surge protector will do. It's important to plug the cable into the power outlet before connecting it to the modem, since connecting the power cable to the modem first can cause damage. You'll usually find the power cable input port at the bottom of the back of the modem, but check your modem's documentation to confirm if you can't find the power port. With the cables attached, gently move your modem into its designated position. You shouldn't feel any resistance from the cables. If you have a Wi-Fi router that you want to use in conjunction with your modem, plug one end of an Ethernet cable into the square port on the back of the modem, then plug the other end into the "INTERNET" (or similarly labeled) square port on the back of the router. As long as the router is plugged into a power source, the router should immediately light up.  Give your modem and router a few minutes to boot up before attempting to connect to Wi-Fi. You can also connect your computer directly to your modem via Ethernet if you have an Ethernet port enabled computer (ex. A PC or Ethernet Adapter for most Macs)

The coefficients are the numbers outside of a radical. If there is no given coefficient, then the coefficient can be understood to be 1. Multiply the coefficients together. Here's how you do it:   Ex. 1: 3√(2) x √(10) = 3√( ? ) 3 x 1 = 3   Ex. 2: 4√(3) x 3√(6) = 12√( ? ) 4 x 3 = 12 After you've multiplied the coefficients, you can multiply the numbers inside the radicals. Here's how you do it:   Ex. 1: 3√(2) x √(10) = 3√(2 x 10) = 3√(20)  Ex. 2: 4√(3) x 3√(6) = 12√(3 x 6) = 12√(18) Next, simplify the numbers under the radicals by looking for perfect squares or multiples of the numbers under the radicals that are perfect squares. Once you've simplified those terms, just multiply them by their corresponding coefficients. Here's how you do it:  3√(20) = 3√(4 x 5) = 3√([2 x 2] x 5) = (3 x 2)√(5) = 6√(5) 12√(18) = 12√(9 x 2) = 12√(3 x 3 x 2) = (12 x 3)√(2) = 36√(2)

The cold water soak will help loosen any dried blood. You can also wash the bed sheets in your washing machine. Use cold water and a mild detergent. This will not necessarily remove the stain, but it will help loosen it. Follow this step with any of the stain-removal treatments listed below. Keep in mind that the stain may be permanent, especially if it has been through the dryer. Heat sets stains, so if you put your stained bed sheets into the dryer, the blood may have been baked into the fabric. For a small stain, fill a bowl with vinegar first, then soak the stain in the bowl. For a larger stain, place towel or rag under stain first, then pour vinegar over the stain. Wait 30 minutes (for both small and large stains), then wash the bed sheet as usual using cold water. Mix 1 tablespoon of meat tenderizer and 2 teaspoons of cold water into a paste. Spread the paste onto the stain, making sure to work it into the fabric. Wait 30 to 60 minutes, then brush the paste off. Wash the sheets in cold water. In a small cup, combine 1 part laundry detergent and 5 parts water. Stir to mix, then apply the solution to the stain. Pat it in with a soft-bristled brush and wait 10 to 15 minutes. Blot the stain with a damp sponge or towel, then pat it dry with a white towel. Pour some hydrogen peroxide onto the stain, and pat it with wait a soft-bristled brush. Wait 5 to 10 minutes, then blot the stain with a damp sponge or rag. Pat the stain again with a clean, dry towel.  Light turns hydrogen peroxide into water. If it is very bright in your room, cover stain with plastic wrap, then place a towel over it. Do a spot test on colored sheets first. Hydrogen peroxide may fade or bleach colored fabrics. Use full-strength ammonia as a last resort. Avoid it on colored bed sheets. Follow the instructions on the box of borax to create a soaking solution. Dunk the stain in the solution for several hours to overnight. Rinse it out the following day with water, then hang it up to dry. Use cold water, a mild detergent, and you usual cycle...

TL;DR in Russian:

Снимите испачканную простыню с постели и положите ее в холодную воду на несколько часов или на всю ночь. Попробуйте использовать белый уксус. Приготовьте пасту, размешав размягчитель мяса в воде. Для удаления небольших пятен используйте стиральный порошок и воду. Для удаления въевшихся пятен используйте перекись водорода. Устойчивые пятна попробуйте пропитать водным раствором буры, оставив его на несколько часов или на всю ночь. После выведения пятен любым из перечисленных выше способов постирайте белье.


The cold will reduce the swelling and make it less likely to rupture the skin. It will also make smaller, less red, and less obvious. You can use an ice pack or package of frozen vegetables wrapped in a towel. Apply the ice for five minutes and then give your skin a chance to warm up. You should see improvement. This will be beneficial in helping it heal if it does break the skin.  Tea tree oil must be diluted before it can be applied to your skin. For acne, dilute it in water so that the mixture contains 5% tea tree oil and 95% water. Wash the area with a clean wash cloth, being careful not to get in your eyes, nose, or mouth. After 15–20 minutes, rinse it off. Tea tree oil is not good for people who have sensitive skin. It can cause contact dermatitis and rosacea. Similar to the tea tree oil, it will kill bacteria in case the pimple breaks through the skin. It will keep your skin dry to prevent the buildup of natural oils. There are several options and you can pick based on what you have available in the house: lemon juice, lime juice, or apple cider vinegar. Make a 1:3 dilution and wash the area with it. Do not get it in your nose or eyes. If you get it in your eyes it will hurt — flush your eyes with water immediately. Exfoliating or using harsh substances on your skin may make your acne look and feel worse. The following are not recommended:  Exfoliants Astringents Alcohol-based substances that will dry your skin Your skin will absorb potassium and vitamins A, C, and E. The healthier your skin is, the better it will fight the infection in the pore.  Peel and mash up a half a cucumber. You can leave the seeds in. Dab the liquid onto the pimples and give it at least 15 minutes to be absorbed into your skin. Then wash the area with clean water. It may be sticky so avoid getting dirty or dusty while you have the mask on. Stress causes physiological and hormonal changes in your body, including increased sweating.  Managing stress may help prevent pimples that are under your skin from becoming full-blown...

The colder the cream is, the easier it is to whip. Plan to whip the cream the moment you take it out of the refrigerator, rather than leaving it sitting on the counter for some time. The bowl you pour the cream into should also be chilled if possible.

The colder the thawing temperature, the less likely that harmful bacteria populations will grow on your fish. Thawing overnight is the recommended method whenever you have the time. Keep your fridge below 46ºF (8ºC) to keep your fish safe, and cook with 48 hours.  Frozen foods will produce water as the ice melts, so keep your fish in a container that can catch water. To avoid waterlogging your fish, you could punch holes in the base of that container, and place it above a second container that will catch the draining water. While most fish will thaw within 8 hours, massive amounts of fish could take up to 24 hours. If you don't want to wait for hours to thaw your fish, seal it inside a zip locked bag and submerge it in cold water. This method usually takes 1–2 hours per pound (0.45 kg) of fish, and is the fastest method that still retains quality. Never use water at room temperature or warmer, as this encourages the growth of bacteria.. This method is not recommended for most circumstances, since the uneven cooking will usually make part of the fish rubbery before the rest of it is defrosted. It is typically much faster than the other methods, however, taking about 3–6 minutes per pound (0.45 kg) with most microwaves. Check on the fish halfway through, and flip each piece over. Once the fish is pliable, meaning it is no longer stiff, it is fully thawed. Cook it as you would a fresh fish, or take a look at the recipes section for ideas. Note that the fish will still be cold once thawed.

TL;DR in Russian:

Размораживайте рыбу в течение 8 часов в холодильнике. Размораживайте в холодной воде. Размораживайте в микроволновой печи. Когда рыба станет податливой, то есть нежесткой, значит, она оттаяла.


The color and style of the buttons is entirely up to you but you might like to consider some of the following ideas:  Choose matching but varying hues. Choose the exact same color; this could be good where you want it stand out against a plain top. Choose a rainbow of colors. Choose different patterns, or even sizes of buttons. Whatever buttons you choose, ensure that they are in excellent condition and will be able to withstand being turned into an often-worn item of jewelry. Older, more fragile buttons may not be ideal for this project. For alternating colors, choose an even number of buttons. Arrange the buttons in a circle, alternating the colors and check that the look is suitable. You can have an odd number of buttons if the colors are matching. For this, the button needs to be much larger than the petal buttons, as they will sit around it. You can either match this button to the petals or choose a button in a completely different color, texture or style, as long as you like how it looks. Place the large central button over the already-made circle of petal buttons. Make sure you can see the petals poking out from around the edges. Place this one on top of the big button. Do the same for each additional layer you want (obviously, you're limited by how large your central button is).  Using hot glue, glue the petals to the center. Then flip it back over. Use hot glue again, but this time to add the center layers. Now you have a fixed button flower. Glue it to the back of the flower. On the side that doesn't open, lather this with hot glue. Place it on the middle of the craft foam circle. Then place a lot of glue on either side of the pin, and on top of the side that doesn't close. Press it in for a few seconds. Then let it dry. If needed, add more glue until the pin sticks. Enjoy your new button pin.

The color and the consistency of engine oil is indicative of its age, and possibly of other engine efficiency issues that you might need to address. As soon as you remove the dipstick, you can get a good sense of the quality of the oil in your engine. Engine oil that's in good condition should look slightly yellow-greenish on the rag, and shouldn't be super-dark. Wipe the oil off the end of the dipstick and examine it on the rag.  Oil will change in color from golden or amber colored to brown and black as more and more particulate gets in the oil from the engine. Metal filings and particulate will slowly scrape the cylinders of your engine over time, which is why the oil needs to be changed according to the manufacturer's recommended service interval (check your owner's manual or service booklet to find your vehicle's service interval). Look at the color, specifically.  Does it look brackish, or chunky? Does it look black or dark? If so, it's likely a sign that your oil needs changed. Take the car in to have it serviced, or change the oil yourself.

TL;DR in Russian:

The color and thickness will depend on why you're making the paper chain. Consider picking colored paper that matches the theme of an upcoming holiday: red and green for Christmas; white and blue for winter; orange, black, and purple for Halloween; pinks, blues, yellows, and other pastels for Easter. You can buy colored construction paper, or you can color the paper yourself.  If there is no holiday coming up, feel free to make your paper chain plain white – or to use a wild mix of colors. Work out a pattern of alternating colors in complement or contrast. Avoid using thick paper that will not bend easily. Most construction paper should be okay, but you don't want to get much thicker. Remember: you want your paper not only to bend, but to stay bent! Try using special seasonal paper. For Christmas, for instance, use wrapping paper.

The color of Lent is purple - a quick stroll by any church will make that abundantly clear. Add a few touches of deep, royal purple into your home to remind you that these 40 days are quite meaningful. But do keep it simple -- Lent is hardly a time for overabundance. A few purple candles, a purple table runner -- nothing too gaudy, eye-catching, or unnecessary. It's a time of reserve and  preparation for growth. Save the excess for Easter!   g closer and closer to Jesus' resurrection. Lent is 40 days long and doesn't include Such a calendar will help you to focus on the progression of the Lenten season and is a neat reminder to see the days ticking away, get in Sundays. It ends the Friday before Easter (the last day being Holy Thursday); count backwards from there. Hang the calendar in a common area in your home. Every day, tick off a box. As you get closer and closer to Easter, how do you find yourself feeling? Are your sacrifices becoming more or less difficult to maintain?    As with any tradition, there is always food involved. Here are a couple ideas to commemorate this season:   Make hot cross buns. These are usually reserved for Good Friday -- but you've got to make them in advance!      Make soft, homemade pretzels. The shape symbolizes arms crossed in prayer.     Of course, you could always prepare food for needy families or those at the local shelter. In addition to fasting on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, have a "sacrifice meal" once each week. A simple bowl of rice and glass of milk instead of your family's traditional spread. Limiting yourself to this will remind you of what's normal for you -- highlighting that it isn't normal for others. The things we so easily forget! Again, only partake in diet restrictions if it's advisable for you. If you're not sure, it's wise to consult a doctor beforehand. Jesus doesn't want you sacrificing your health!    At the start of Lent, Ash Wednesday, burn the palms you have from last year's Palm Sunday. Keep them in a bowl at your dining room table (or wherever...

TL;DR in Russian:

The color of a horse's teeth provide a general clue as to horse's age. The milk teeth are white, and the permanent teeth (which erupt at 2 ½  to 5 years of age) that replace them are cream-yellow. With increasing age they turn brown (20 years plus). Looking at the shape of the chewing surface on a horse's incisors will also help you to determine its age. Milk incisors are oval, adult incisors are circular, and senior incisors are triangular.  The cutting or chewing surface of the tooth is the portion of the tooth perpendicular to the long axis of the tooth. It is also sometimes called the “table” of the tooth. The incisors are the teeth  located at the front of the mouth, which the horse uses to chop grass. When you peel back the horse’s lips, it is the incisors you see. The teeth at the back of the mouth, which you cannot see without special equipment, are the molars. These are the names given to various ridges that form a pattern on the biting surface of the horse's incisors. They are formed by deep ridges in the enamel, which wear away over the course of the animal's life to give characteristic shapes.  To check for an infundibulum or “cup,” open the horse’s mouth to see the chewing or cutting surface of the incisors. A cup is a deep brown linear mark toward the back of the incisor surface and is present from when the adult tooth first erupts, but it becomes fainter over time. The cup disappears first from the central incisors (those in the center) around 9 years of age, then the middle incisors around 10 years of age, and the corner (outer) incisors at around 12 years of age. Once all the cups have worn away, the horse is said to be "smooth mouthed". "Stars" are a circular brown mark that sits in front of the cup. This first appears at 8-10 years of age and becomes more obvious with age. Young teeth meet in a vertical line. After 5 years of age, the teeth start to slope and meet at an angle. In an aged horse (20 years plus), this sloping angle can be very acute. Galvayne's Groove forms as a result of a...

The color of the gemstone is often your first clue. This component can be further divided into three parts: hue, tone, and saturation.  Do not shine a light into the stone to examine its color unless you have a dark stone and need to determine whether it is black, dark blue, or another deep color. "Hue" refers to the stone's overall body color. Be as specific as possible. For instance, if a stone is a yellowish green, identify it as such instead of merely saying "red." The GIA separates stone hue into 31 different colors. "Tone" refers to whether a color is dark, medium, light, or somewhere in between. "Saturation" refers to the intensity of color. Determine whether the hue is warm (yellow, orange, red) or cool (purple, blue, green). With warm colors, check the stone for brown tints. For cool colors, check the stone for gray tints. The more brown or gray you see, the less saturated the stone color is. Transparency describes how light filters through the gemstone. A stone can be transparent, translucent, or opaque.  Transparent stones are completely see-through (example: diamonds). Translucent stones can be seen through, but some color or haze alters the image (example: amethyst or aquamarine). Opaque stones cannot be seen through (example: opal). You can determine heft—how heavy the gemstone is—by simply bouncing it in your hand. This is a quick and easy way to estimate a stone's weight without performing complex specific gravity tests and equations.  To judge heft, bounce the stone in the palm of your hand and ask yourself if it feels as heavy as you would expect for its size or if it feels heavier or unusually light. Specific gravity readings are fairly outdated as a practice among gemologists, and heft measurements are used as a relatively accurate estimation. For example, aquamarine has low heft while blue topaz, which is similar in appearance, has a high or heavy heft. Similarly, diamond has a lower heft than synthetic cubic zirconia. While not a foolproof method of identification, some gemstones are...

The color of your bedroom walls can have a big impact on how you feel. Warm colors like oranges, reds, yellows, and earth tones can make even large rooms feel cosy and intimate. Muted colors, such as pale gray and pastels, create a cozier environment than bright or bold colors. Blue/navy is also a calming colour to have in a bedroom. You will also be able to hang more pictures and photos without worrying if it will clash. Neutral colors make your room feel larger. If you have a dark color like black or purple, it will seem smaller and cramped. Consider painting just the wall behind your bed a bold color. This will draw your eye to the bed, anchoring it in your room. The effect will make your bedroom feel cozier. Is it a small carpet, pillow, painting or photo frame? If possible, take that item to the store with you to look for similar paint colors. Get a large paint chip, usually around 8 x 10 inches, from your local paint store before you commit to a new color. You will probably have to order the larger samples and wait a few days to get them, but most stores will provide you with these free of charge.  Tape your paper sample on a wall that gets both natural and artificial light so you can see how it looks in both. In most cases, paint colors appear slightly different under various lighting conditions. It's best to get small containers of paint samples to put on the wall. Most brands allow you to purchase a tiny container of the color you're interested in using. Simply brush a stroke of paint onto your wall in an area exposed to all of your light sources. This will give you the most accurate idea of what the color will look like on your wall. Select a range of shades in that color. For example, if you are thinking about red walls, choose a number of paint samples in red hues. A shade you think might not work in your room might very well turn out to be the best one for your new space. If your favorite colors aren't right for the wall, you can always incorporate them in your decor instead. Paint it on white...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поймите, каким образом цвет стен может менять настроение комнаты. Покрасьте комнату в нейтральный цвет, например в бежевый, светло-коричневый или в белый. В выборе цвета попробуйте вдохновиться цветом какого-нибудь уже имеющегося в спальне предмета. Предварительно проверяйте потенциальные цвета красок для покраски стен. Сконцентрируйтесь на образцах нескольких оттенков наиболее привлекательного для вас цвета. Купите небольшую банку краски понравившегося вам цвета, чтобы нанести ее на толстый лист белого плакатного картона, если магазин не предоставил вам крупных образцов с цветами красок. Оставьте образцы цветов краски повисеть на стене несколько дней, чтобы выбрать среди них наиболее подходящий. Поэкспериментируйте с сочетаниями теплых оттенков. Попробуйте обратить внимание на теплые оттенки белого цвета или светло-желтые оттенки.


The color wheel is a map of colors, showcasing the ways new colors can be created. There are three sets of colors present: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary colors are: red, blue, and yellow. These are colors that come straight from a tube; they cannot be made from mixing other colors. However, secondary colors (purple, green, and orange) can be made from the primary colors. Tertiary colors are in between primary and secondary on the color wheel (think teal or peach).  Red + Yellow = Orange Yellow + Blue = Green Red + Blue = Purple Adding a small amount of white to any color will make it lighter, turning it into a tint. Most from-the-bottle colors are very vibrant and bold, and can be made more pastel-like by adding white. It is harder to add white to a color, so try adding a bit of your color to white paint first. You will have to use less paint to make a tint in this fashion. If a color is too bright for your liking, mix the color’s opposite into it to dull the vibrancy. Doing this is changing your hue (true color) into a tone; you’re toning the color down. A color’s opposite is the one directly across from it on the color wheel. For example, the opposite of red is green, yellow is violet, and blue is orange.

TL;DR in Russian:

Познакомьтесь с цветовым кругом. Создавайте различные светлые тона. Создавайте различные тона.


The colors and design should generally be subdued. Since you are writing a personalized note, choose a blank card or one with very little text; an abundance of trite ready-made phrases will depersonalize your gesture of thanks.  Alternatively, you can send a plain note. This is especially appropriate if you feel you have a lot to say. However, if you're at a loss for words, stick with a store-bought card, as they don't lend themselves to a lot of writing. While muted cards are "normal" and socially acceptable, consider using blank cards that reflect the personality of the person whose life is being remembered. For example, tasteful images of a motorbike for someone who loved riding.  Do not email a sympathy thank-you. Though this is the most convenient way to contact people, it is also extremely impersonal and will be considered a serious faux pas. Whether you've chosen a card or a letter, hand-write the note in pen rather than typing it or writing in pencil. Again, this will give the thank-you a more intimate and polished feel. Opening with “Dear ___” breaks the ice and keeps the message intimate. This can be an actual item (flowers, a card), a gesture of condolence (attending a funeral, making a heartfelt phone call), or simply emotional support. Mentioning specifics demonstrates that you noticed and appreciated the effort made. If someone has passed, for example, you might mention how much the recipient(s) meant to the deceased. If the recipient(s) attended an event, you might mention how much their being there gave you strength. If you can't think of something nice to say about the recipient(s), compliment the present/gesture instead. For example, say that gift comforted you at a dark time, that the flowers were the deceased's favorite, etc. Begin wrapping up your thoughts by offering a general expression of appreciation. State how much their kindness or condolences have meant to you and your family. Write “Sincerely,” “With love,” “Warm regards,” “From our hearts,” etc. before signing your name(s).

The common theory as to why children are more susceptible to head lice than adults is that children are less likely to respect personal space. They may also be exposed to situations where head-to-head contact is unavoidable like class nap times or sitting close together side-by-side at their desks. It's as simple as two kids touching heads while leaning over a colouring book. Try to leave space between you and others in order to prevent the spreading of head lice.  Contrary to popular belief, head lice do not jump. They actually crawl very fast from one head to another on a strand of hair. While lice eggs are laid on the shaft of a hair with cement-like glue. Ask children to try their best to avoid head-to-head contact. That might mean avoiding games or activities that need them to have head contact with each other. Lice can also travel onto any items or surfaces that may have come into contact with the head. Hats, glasses, scarves, combs and hairbrushes, earbuds and headsets, and even chairs can be sites where can lice can jump from and to your own head.  Even within families, it's good practice for each family member to have their own hairbrush or comb. In some situations such as school closets, clothes, hats, and scarves are often stored together out in the open. Avoid exposing these items by either keeping your belongings with you or storing them away in a bag or backpack. Long hair can sometimes reach beyond personal space since some hair can grow well past someone's shoulders or even fall off and get onto other people's space. Keeping hair tied prevents your hair from touching others.  Use hairspray to keep stray hairs in place. Never share hair ties, barrettes or clips with others. This is a great way natural remedy to prevent head lice. These oils will act as repellents and keep head lice away. Use only a few drops on your scalp per day or dilute a few drops in a spray bottle and spritz it in your hair.  Tea tree oil can be quite drying so only use as directed on the label. Tea tree oil can also be...

The components needed to make gel alcohol hand sanitizer are common household products, so it’s quite possible that you already have them. If you don’t, you can obtain them easily at any drug or grocery store. You will need rubbing (isopropyl) alcohol that is at a minimum 91% pure and plain aloe vera gel. That’s it!  To be comparable to store-bought products like Purell or Germ-X in terms of effectiveness, the final product needs to be at least 65% alcohol. Using 91% isopropyl alcohol will place your final product within that range. If you can find 99% isopropyl alcohol, choose that. It’s not required, but it will increase the germ-killing effectiveness of your final product. Aloe vera gel also comes in a variety of purity options. You’ll want the purest that you can find – simply check out the label to get the purity information. This doesn’t alter the effectiveness of the product, but using the purest you can find will ensure that your final mixture contains the least amount of additives and additional chemicals. Measure out 3⁄4 cup (180 ml) of isopropyl alcohol and 1⁄4 cup (59 ml) of plain aloe vera gel and dump both of them together into the bowl. Use your spatula (or spoon) to stir vigorously until the ingredients are fully mixed together.  If you’d prefer not to mix by hand in a bowl, you can use your food processor instead. If the ingredients flow too easily, add in 1⁄8 cup (30 ml) more aloe gel and stir it together. Be careful adding any more gel since you may dilute the alcohol so much that it won’t be effective against bacteria. Use the funnel to pour the mixture directly from the bowl into the bottle you’ve chosen to use. Replace the pump, lid, or cap on your bottle. Now you have your finished product and it's ready to use immediately!  The mixture will keep for 6 months or more. Store it away from direct sunlight to get the longest shelf life possible.  Put the mixture in smaller bottles that can easily fit into a purse, backpack, or briefcase for use on the go. If you purchase any commercial...

The concentrated hydrogen peroxide used in this experiment will burn the skin and eyes. It can also bleach fabric, so choose your clothing with that in mind. This hydrogen peroxide is stronger than any household peroxide. Be sure to handle with care and make sure the graduated cylinder is set on a stable location. Play with the food dye for fun effects. Create fun patterns and color variations. To make the final product striped, tilt the graduated cylinder and drip food coloring down the sides. Add a small layer of liquid dish soap by pouring it into the solution down the side of the cylinder. You can also use powdered dish soap but be sure to mix the solution thoroughly. Using a spatula, add the potassium iodide to create the chemical reaction. You can also dissolve the potassium iodide in water in a vial before adding to the solution. Large colored foam will rise out of the cylinder. Place a glowing wood splint near the foam and watch it reignite as the oxygen is released from the emerging foam. Flush the remaining solution down the drain using plenty of water. Make sure all glowing wood splints are out and there are no open flames. Close and store the hydrogen peroxide and potassium iodide.

The concept of 'naughtiness' is a human characterization that has been incorrectly applied to an animal. Your Labrador is not innately "naughty" or "bad." Rather, your dog does what Labradors do in a Labrador fashion until you teach him new behaviors. Keep in mind that he wasn't born automatically knowing the rules of living in a human world. Labradors are generally intelligent, happy, and energetic dogs. They need substantial attention and an outlet for their energy.  Labradors originated from and were developed in Newfoundland. They were frequently used by fishermen to help retrieve fishing nets and loose fish. To this day, they remain good "workers" and swimmers. The versatility of the Labrador has seen the breed utilized in many "jobs," including  search and rescue, police work, drug detection, and service work for the blind, among others. Giving them what they need will help ensure that they don't engage in "bad behaviors" as a way to cope with the insufficiency of their treatment. For example, Labradors need to play and be thoroughly walked. If you don't do this, they often become bored and destructive. Keep them active by playing fetch and going on substantial walks at least twice a day. Increased physical activity helps a dog stay healthy and also tires them out. A tired out Labrador will, in turn, be less inclined to help himself to the food in your cupboards and dig up your garden. Swimming is also excellent exercise for a dog and playing fetch in the water is a great combination that expends a lot of dog energy.

TL;DR in Russian:

Заметьте, что не может быть такого понятия, как «непослушный» лабрадор. Прочитайте информацию о породе. Обращайтесь с лабрадорами так, как того требуют особенности данной породы.


The concept: you will put the beers inside a clay pot, insulated by a layer of sand and a larger clay pot. Cover the top of the pot with a cold, wet towel. As the water evaporates, it cools the inside of the container. After an hour or two, you can put the beers inside and let them cool! You can use this method even on very hot days – you may be able to cool the inside of the pot to more than 40 degrees below the outside temperature. In a pinch, you can use smaller-scale evaporative cooling. Soak a towel, newspaper, or toilet paper with cold water, then wrap the beer inside. As the water evaporates, the beer should slowly cool. One should be large enough to hold 2-5 beers at once; the other should be large enough to hold the first pot with at least a half-inch of clearance on each side.Plug the bottom of each pot with clay, putty, cork – anything that will help retain the sand. If you must use plastic pots (or another material), then you may. Bear in mind that clay is a better insulator, so a "clay pot fridge" will be more effective.

TL;DR in Russian:

The conclusion of a biography should remind the reader of the subject’s achievements or actions. Briefly describe their greatest achievements so that the reader can remember why it is important or enlightening to learn about their life. A conclusion in Jane Austen’s biography, for example, should mention that she wrote 6 novels, some of which are regarded among the memorable and influential works of English literature. It is important to describe the impact the subject had during their lifetime. If their actions caused political reform, describe the laws, changes, or conflicts that that took place because of their actions. If they enacted important societal changes, mention how their actions changed the cultural mindset. A biography about Martin Luther, the 16th-century monk who lead the Protestant Reformation, should mention his impact on the development of religious beliefs throughout Europe. Not only did he challenge the ruling Catholic Church, but he made the Bible more accessible to all individuals, not just the clergy. A conclusion should mention that his actions influenced religious beliefs during the Renaissance. While a biography on an important historical figure may include details about their legacy, a biography about a family friend or person who is unknown to the general public may not. In this case, mention what the person learned or achieved in their life, or note experiences that transformed them.  For instance, a biography written by your grandmother may focus on how moving to a metropolitan area when she got married changed her perspective on women in the workforce. If you’re writing the biography about yourself, note the greatest life lessons you’ve learned or the biggest achievements you’ve had so far.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обобщите самые важные деяния своего героя. Опишите, какое влияние на жизнь общества оказал ваш герой. Объясните, чему учил ваш герой или чего он достиг в своей жизни.


The confession varies depending on the church and the people involved, but it’s typically a few sentences either way. Break the confession into small phrases, which the person being baptized will repeat after you say them. The person may be nervous if they are in front of a crowd, so it is important that they clearly hear what you want them to say. Speak each word fully so they can understand it.  Use a slow, calm voice to fit the seriousness of the situation. When the person is ready to repeat after you, start by saying, “I believe that Jesus is the Christ,” then pause and let them repeat the phrase. Then say, “The son of the living God,” and let them repeat. Continue, “And I accept Him as my Lord and Savior.”   Other versions of this confession ask questions rather than having the person repeat after you. Examples of questions to ask are: Do you believe that Jesus is the son of God? Do you believe that He died and was raised to life? Do you accept Him as your Lord and Savior? After each question, the person says, “Yes,” or “I do.” Talk to the pastor of your church, or another local church, for other versions of this confession of faith. After they have repeated their confession of faith, say a blessing over them to make their baptism official. Say, “Ellis, I now baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, for the forgiveness of your sins, and the gift of the Holy Spirit.”

TL;DR in Russian:

Скажите, чтобы крещаемый повторял за вами слова исповедания веры. Медленно и отчетливо произносите каждое слово. Произносите исповедание веры по фразам. Благословите крещаемого перед тем, как погрузить его в воду.


The connections in your brain that create short-term memory can be strengthened if you keep mentally active. Things like doing crossword puzzles, playing a musical instrument, or even learning new routes between home and work can help with brain activity.  Try a crossword once or day, either in the morning or in the evening. If you don't already know a musical instrument, consider taking lessons. If you already play (or sing) set aside a half hour or so a day to practice. Depression and stress can both contribute to short-term memory loss. By spending more time with your friends or family, you can ward off stress and depression, and therefore improve your short-term memory. Something as simple as a regular phone call, or meeting for lunch for can help with short-term memory loss. If you find that you have a hard time remembering what you read, or what you’ve studied, try to limit the number of distractions around you. Pick a quiet space to work in. Turn your phone’s notifications off, or turn your phone on silent. The less distracted you are as you work, the more likely you are to improve your short-term memory. Scientists aren’t sure why, but chewing gum while learning can increase activity in the area of the brain responsible for memory. While you’re studying or working on an important project, chew a piece of gum. It could improve your ability to retain what you’ve learned!  Make sure that you chew the same flavor of gum each time you study. When taking the exam, ask your teacher if you can chew gum. Use the same flavor. If you’re worried about your ability to retain what someone says to you, try doodling while they talk! Doodling can actually help you focus on just two things – what you’re drawing and what someone else is saying. Just make sure you warn the person you’re speaking to that you’ll be doodling.  For example, you can say something like “I find that doodling while I speak to someone helps me remember what we said later. Do you mind if I doodle while we chat?” You can doodle in meetings, too,...

The construction of your handheld EMP device will go most smoothly if you have all the tools and components required for construction on hand. You will need:  AA battery AA battery holder Copper wire Cardboard Disposable camera (with flash) Electrical tape Iron core (circular shaped preferred) Rubber gloves (recommended) Simple electrical switch Solder and soldering iron Walkie-talkie antenna Inside your disposable camera, you will see a main circuit board that controls the functions of your camera. Remove the batteries first, and then remove the circuit board, taking note of the position of the flash capacitor.  Wearing rubber gloves can save you from getting an electric jolt while handling your camera circuit and flash capacitor. Capacitors generally look like cylinders attached to the circuit board with two prongs. This will be a necessary component for you EMP device. Expend the charge in your capacitor by engaging the flash after removing the batteries from your camera. Any stored charge in your camera can result in an electrical shock. Be sure that you have an adequate length of copper wire; your wrap should evenly and completely cover your iron core. You should also wrap your wire tightly, as a loose winding will negatively impact your EMP. You walkie-talkie antenna will serve as the stock onto which you fix your electromagnetic coil and camera circuit board. Wrap the base end of your walkie-talkie antenna with electrical tape as a preventative measure for being shocked. Your cardboard will serve as another insulator to prevent any unpleasant electrical shocks. Use your electrical tape, taking care not to cover any of the electric pathways of your camera circuit, and attach it to your piece of cardboard.  You'll want to attach your camera circuit face up so that the capacitor and its connection pathways aren't interfered with by the cardboard. Your cardboard mount for your camera circuit should have some additional space for your AA holder. Since current will be running through your coil to create your...

The container needs to be deep enough to allow slugs and snails to fall in without being able to crawl out again. Deep containers also ensure that the beer won't evaporate too quickly.  You could use a tuna fin, an empty aluminum pie tin, or a small dish.  Plastic drinking cups, leftover yogurt containers, and the bottoms of plastic soda bottles are also suitable. If the container is at or below the soil’s level, you might also kill the ground beetles that eat slugs.  If the lip of the container is too high, though, the garden snails will find entering the container difficult.  Use a simple hand trowel to dig a spot for the container in your garden.  Plant the container snugly into the hole. Backfill the hole with soil if necessary to achieve a sturdy fit. Beer traps only attract snails from the immediate area.  The number of traps you’ll need to make depends on the size of your garden.  If you have a garden with perimeters of nine feet (three meters) by nine feet (three meters), for instance, you’ll need nine beer traps. Snails aren’t picky about what sort of beer they drink.  Any good brew will do! As an alternative to beer, you could mix two tablespoons of flour, 1/2 teaspoon of brewer’s yeast, one teaspoon of sugar, and two cups of warm water.  Use this mixture instead of beer. Some recipes do not include flour, so you may be able to leave it out if you don't have any. A few pinches of baker’s yeast can make the trap even more enticing for garden snails.  Just sprinkle the yeast over the beer and mix it in with a spoon. The beer will lose its potency over time, so you’ll have to pour the old beer out and add new beer every couple days.  If it rains in your beer traps, you’ll have to empty them then, too.  There’s no need to empty traps filled with dead snails.  Other snails will be attracted to their friends’ decomposing bodies. Pour the beer and dead garden snails into a disused part of your yard or into your compost pile.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите подходящую емкость для пивной ловушки. Закопайте емкость для ловушки в саду так, чтобы верхний край возвышался над землей примерно на 2 см. Разместите ловушки на расстоянии примерно 90 см друг от друга. Наполните емкости пивом наполовину. Добавьте дрожжей, чтобы ловушка стала еще привлекательнее для вредителей. Опустошайте ловушки каждые два-три дня.


The container should be small enough on the sides that your tortoise should be able to climb out of it. Add lukewarm water to it. Make sure the tortoise's head pokes above the water when he's in it, but it should be about chin deep. You can also place one end of the tub on a book to create a slight angle, making a shallow end and a deep end. Place the tortoise's head at the shallow end. The tortoise will spend time in the water, using it to rehydrate his body. Tortoises use water to rehydrate their bodies. They absorb it through a vent in the tail know as the cloaca. The tortoise needs to soak for at least 20 minutes, but he will generally let you know when he's done by trying to climb out. Once the tortoise has soaked, you can take the water out. Discard the water in the toilet to avoid spreading any germs. You can also take the tortoise from his cage to put him in a basin and simply take him out when he's done. Make sure the tortoise is dry when he goes back to his cage. Use a towel to gently sponge him off. Start with the shell, gently rubbing the water off. Also, pat off the head, arms, and legs, being sure to get in all the cracks. How much water you need to provide depends on the type of tortoise, the time of year, and whether he's inside or outside. Inside, you may need to do it as often as once a week, especially if the humidity is low. Outside in the heat, the tortoise will need it twice a week, and you can let the water dry up in between.  It's especially important to provide a bath when the tortoise is coming out of hibernation, as the tortoise will need to rehydrate.  When the tortoise is hibernating and inside, you may only need to provide water about once a month.

TL;DR in Russian:

Наполните водой неглубокую емкость. Оставьте черепаху в воде на некоторое на время. Подождите, пока черепаха «напьется». Вылейте воду. Вытрите черепаху насухо. Купайте свою черепаху не реже раза в неделю.


The container should have a diameter of 16–18 inches (41–46 cm) to let the plant grow. The holes on the bottom will ensure that the soil drains properly. Fill about 1/3 of the pot. Drape landscape fabric over the items. This will help the soil drain properly. The strawberry plant has rather shallow roots, so it does not need the whole pot filled with soil. This will also make the container less heavy, which will help if you need to move the container. Use a multipurpose potting soil with a pH between 5.5 and 6.5. Leave enough space in the container for you to plant the strawberries. If desired, you can add compost to enrich the soil. The label of the potting mix should state its pH. Remove the strawberry from its original pot. Gently loosen the soil around the roots with your fingers, but try not to touch or disturb the roots. Set the plant into the hole in the pot. Push or add more soil to cover the tops of the roots.  The crown of the plant should remain above the soil. Only the roots should be under the soil. If you have a large pot or growing container for multiple plants, keep the strawberries about 10–12 inches (25–30 cm) apart. Strawberries need 6-10 hours of direct sunlight a day. Put your pots out on a porch, in a garden, or on a balcony where they can get enough sunshine. You can bring the pots in during the winter, as long as you leave them by a sunny window.  If you can’t get enough sunlight indoors for your strawberry plant, try putting the plant under a grow light.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите крупный горшок с дренажными отверстиями. Насыпьте на дно горшка гальку, небольшие камни или осколки глиняной посуды. Заполните оставшийся объем почвой для комнатных растений. Пересадите землянику в горшок. Поставьте горшки в освещаемое солнцем место.


The container you choose should be big enough to accommodate the type and number of roses you’ll be growing, with a little bit of room left over. Miniature roses that only reach heights of 6–18 inches (15–46 cm) may only require a container that’s 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) deep, whereas larger specimens will need at least 18 inches (46 cm) in order for their roots to spread out comfortably.  Box planters, wooden barrels, and washtubs can make great containers for full-sized roses. When it doubt, it’s better to go too big than too small. Roses that are planted in roomy containers grow larger and healthier on average, and also tend to do better over the harsh winter season. Containers made from materials like plastic, fiberglass, and recycled composites are easy to pick up and relocate. This feature can be a major advantage if you think you might want to grow or display your roses both indoors and outdoors. Grow bags are also easy to pick up and tote from place to place, and can even be planted in the ground should you decide to make your roses a permanent fixture in your garden. Materials like terracotta, ceramic, and concrete heat up quickly when left in the sun. By fitting a heavy stone-type container with a separate plastic liner, you can ensure that your planting soil stays cool and retains vital moisture. Roses that get too hot need more frequent watering, which can be hard on both you and the plant.  Most garden supply stores and greenhouses sell plastic pot liners that are designed to fit perfectly inside standard-sized containers. If you don’t want to purchase a separate liner, you can also make your own using a plastic trash bag or several layers of newsprint. Look for containers that have holes or slits in the bottom. These openings will make it possible for water to flow out of the container once it’s made its way through the soil, reducing the chances of overwatering.  If you already have a container you want to use that doesn’t feature built-in drainage holes, you can put a few in yourself using an...

The content of your copy should be inspired and informed by the research you conducted on the product or service. The intended audience will likely have questions that are similar to your research questions. Good copy anticipates these questions—answering them before the customer even has a chance to wonder.  Always write with your audience in mind. Scrutinize each word, phrase, and sentence of the copy to ensure that it will be well received by your target audience. Provide your audience with a comprehensive understanding of the product or service. Explicitly state how the product or service will benefit, improve, or fill the need of your customer or client. Radio ads are frequently tuned out by listeners and extremely short. To compensate for these circumstances, copywriters must capture their audience’s attention quickly and write short, precise, and clear copy that holds their listeners’ attention. Achieving this delicate balance is tricky, but possible.  Do not try to share every detail about the product or service in the copy. Keep your message simple and the focus on the product or service—don’t let the copy get bogged down by an overworked creative format. The product or service should not be overshadowed by a vignette, dialog, or testimonial. Revise your copy with an editing eye. Consider every word, phrase, and sentence carefully. Could you shorten a sentence from 15 words to 6 words? Is that joke relevant? Is there a better word?  Remember that most people who are listening to radio advertisements are driving a car. When the music or show stops, they are apt to change the station. The copy must stop them from changing that station, or get through the other thoughts they have in their head while driving. In addition to presenting the product or service in comprehensive and articulate manner, radio ads must also call its listeners to action. In other words, you must explicitly tell the intended audience what it is you want them to do. Call to actions may include telling your listeners to:  Buy the...

TL;DR in Russian:

The content, including word choice, references and anecdotes, should be tailored to the audience who will be listening to the speech. For example, a "don't do drugs" speech aimed at first graders will sound very different from one meant to teach awareness to college students. As you listen to the speech, try to determine whether it hits the mark or seems a bit off.  Do not base your critique on your own personal opinion, but on how the speaker would be perceived by a wider audience. Your own biases should not come into play. If possible, note audience members’ reactions to the speech. Do they seem to understand it? Are they rapt with attention? Do they laugh along with the jokes, or do they seem bored? The speaker should use correct grammar and easy to understand language, making it pleasant to listen to the speech and follow what it’s about. Within a few sentences, the main subject of the speech should be clear, and the rest of the content should build in a smooth, understandable manner to support the speaker’s thesis. Again, whether or not you agree with or like the speaker should be less important than what the speaker is saying. When you’re deciding whether the speech is clear, consider the following questions:  Is the introduction effective? Did the speaker make his or her primary argument apparent within the first few sentences, or did it take awhile before you figured out what he or she was getting at?  Is the speech full of distracting tangents that do not relate to the primary argument, or does it build in a logical manner toward the conclusion? If you were to repeat the speech to someone else, could you recite all the main points or would you have trouble remembering what it was really about? In a well-written speech, arguments are skillfully put forth to prove a larger point. The content of the speech should demonstrate the speaker’s expertise on the subject at hand, and the audience should come away feeling they learned something new. Look for gaps in the speaker’s reasoning or places where...

The conversion utility will only allow you to select folders, not individual files. Make sure CR2 files are properly sorted into folders so that you can easily convert them. You'll be able to convert files in subfolders as well. This utility will convert your CR2 files into a compatible DNG format. DNG is an open raw format that will still give you access to all of the raw colors. This converter is necessary if you are running a version of Photoshop that is too old to support your camera model. You can download the latest version of "DNG Converter" from the Adobe Updates site (http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html). Click the link for your operating system to download the correct installer. Double-click the downloaded EXE file (Windows) or DMG file (Mac). Follow the prompts to install the converter program. In Windows, this will involve clicking through some installation screens. For Mac users, you'll drag the DNG Converter program to your Applications folder. After installing, start Adobe DNG Converter from your Start menu (Windows) or the Applications folder (Mac). Click the "Select Folder" button to browse for the correct folder. If the folder contains other folders with more CR2 files, check the "Include images contained within subfolders" box. When you run the converter again to convert newly-added files, you can check the "Skip source image if destination image already exists" box. This will prevent you from converting old files a second time. By default, the converted files will be put in the same location as the originals. You can choose a different folder if you'd prefer the converted files end up somewhere else. You can apply automatic formatting to the converted file names by filling out the text fields. Click the first drop-down menu to select a format for the file name. You can then add additional text using the extra fields. For example, you could use the first field to label each file by four digit serial number, and the second to add the date. If you're using older versions of Photoshop,...

The cooked jelly is very hot, so be careful as you lower it into the jars. Fill each one to about 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) below the rim, then place the seal and lids on the jars. Let them sit for a few moments until you hear the lids pop, which indicates that the seals have been activated.  If you're planning on eating the jelly within the next few days, it's not necessary to seal the jars. You can also preserve quince jelly by melting paraffin wax and pouring it into the hot jelly after you ladle it into jars. The wax will rise to the top of the jelly and form a seal.

The cool and dark space encourages the plant to grow its roots rather than shoots, which is a better use of energy in the first few weeks.  60 F is the optimum temperature. This is a rather cool room temperature, such as you might get in a cellar or garage. This step is optional but highly recommended. After a month, you can bring the tulip and its vessel out into a bright warm room. You should always make sure the water is topped up. Make sure the water in your vessel is topped up so the roots remain in water, but don’t let the bulb itself soak.  Unless you home is very hot and dry, you should check once or twice a week. It’s best to keep forcing tulips out of direct sunlight but they will appreciate a bright room out of direct sunlight. You are advised to keep rotating the vase. Tulips will grow pointing towards the light, such as from the nearest window. Rotating the vase encourages them to grow straight and even. Depending on when you want your tulips to be fully flowered, decide when you want to begin the forcing process.  If you start forcing tulips in the fall, they will need around 3 or 4 months to come into flower. However, those that started right in the middle of winter, for example in December, won’t need as long to come to flower; possibly only 2 months. If you want tulips in flower over the holidays for indoor displays, you’ll need to get started no later than October. If you are keen to have tulips for a very specific date, it’s usually wise to try forcing them at intervals. Start in early September and start forcing one bulb each week until the middle of October. This will make it more likely that you’ll have flowers by the holiday season. Unfortunately, forcing a bulb tends to take a toll on the bulb’s reserve of energy.  Some kinds of bulbs can recover from forcing and go on to flower again, but tulips are less good at this. It’s fairly unlikely a tulip will flower again once forced, and a tulip bulb won’t stand being forced twice. If you are really reluctant to give up on a bulb once its...

The core of any alkaline diet is a strong emphasis on fruits and vegetables, rather than meat, dairy, eggs, and carbohydrates. As a general rule, plant products like fruits and vegetables usually break down into alkalines, whereas the other foods mentioned usually break down into acids. Thus, emphasizing vegetables in your diet is a sure-fire way to start increasing your alkaline intake.   Alkaline fruits and vegetables include: Apples, broccoli, asparagus, bananas, artichoke, beetroot, kale, grapes, spinach, cantaloupe, cauliflower, and many more. For a complete list, see an alkaline diet resource (like, for example, Acidalkalinediet.net) As noted above, the alkaline diet forbids many traditional sources of protein, like meat, eggs, and dairy. Protein is an essential nutrient that's vital for a huge range of bodily processes, which means that it's extra-important to get a good amount of vegetable protein on an alkaline diet. Luckily, beans and legumes provide ample protein (and, as a bonus, are less acid-forming than meat, eggs, and so on.) Don't be tempted to skimp on protein altogether — protein is an essential nutrient that's used in a wide variety of vital processes, like building healthy bones, fueling growth, facilitating muscle function, and maintaining a healthy weight. Since normal dairy is off-limits for its acid-producing properties, non-dairy alternatives should be substituted. In addition to lacking the acid-forming property of traditional dairy products, soy and almond milk can be quite nutritious in their own right, as they both lack the cholesterol and calories found in cow's milk. While drinking plenty of plain, unsweetened, ordinary water is something that's frequently recommended by health experts, alkaline diet practitioners often go as to recommend water that's been treated to give it alkaline properties. While there is some limited evidence that alkalized water can possibly help limit bone loss, this property isn't certain or even particularly well-understood. However, alkalized water...

The core storage drive of a computer may come in the form of an traditional hard disk with moving parts or a stationary solid-state drive. Solid-state drives (SSDs) are faster and use less power than hard disks. They’re also less prone to freezing when running multiple programs at once. Bottom line: if you’re a multi-tasker, go for the SSD.  If you can’t decide between a hard disk and a solid-state drive, you could choose a hybrid drive which combines the two. With a hybrid you get the speed of an SSD for a lower cost. On the other hand, its hard-disk parts are fragile and can be damaged if you drop your computer.  Optical drives, which play CDs and DVDs, are becoming less common on laptops. If you can’t find a computer with a built-in drive, buy an external drive that you can attach with a USB cable. The larger your computer's hard drive, the more information you can store on it. Hard drives usually come in sizes of 500 gigabytes (GB) to 8 terabytes (TB). Consider your intended tasks on the computer. Ask yourself if these needs could change over the next few years. For example, your immediate need might be enough space to hold word documents and spreadsheets. However, you could find music and video files that you’d like to store for later. Your friends could begin sending pictures of the kids’ latest milestones. These files will require more space than smaller files. The more random access memory (RAM) memory your computer has, the more applications it can run simultaneously and the better it performs overall. If you plan to stick with basic usage, go with a standard 4GB RAM. If you’re a serious gamer, on the other hand, go with 16GB or higher. You can also buy additional RAM later if you need it. RAM tends to be rather inexpensive, regardless of the system you’re using. Look at the both the number of cores and the number of gigahertz (GHz). Cores determine how fast your computer runs. GHz measure the amount of power consumed. For example, a 1.5 GHz quad core processor runs faster than a 2.0 GHz single-core....

The cover can be removed by loosening the screws securing it to the outlet. There will either be one screw in the center, or two screws on the top and bottom of the outlet cover. Place the outlet cover and the screws aside. There will be two long mounting screws securing the electrical outlet to the blue electrical box. Remove them so you can insert the outlet extenders. Since the tile adds additional depth from the wall, the original outlet location will be sunken back from the tile surface. You can use either accordion-style or box-style outlet spacers to raise the outlet flush with the tile.  The accordion design spacers fold over with 1/8” added for each segment. If the depth of your new tile is 5/8” thick, then you can add five segments to raise the outlet 5/8”.  An outlet box extender is a rectangular ring that fits over and behind the outlet to add additional space between the original outlet box and the outlet. Regardless of which type of extender you use, the design has a hole, so you can feed the mounting screw through the extender and back into the outlet box. You won’t tighten it down until after you place your tile. This will also allow you to test if your current screws are long enough to reattach the outlet with the extender in place. You may have to purchase longer screws.
