Article in English: Tea tree oil can help get rid of acne-causing bacteria. Add 1-3 drops of tea tree oil to your cleanser or moisturizer. Tea tree oil can also be mixed with a teaspoon of coconut oil and applied to your face.  Use a cotton swab to apply the mixture to your face and let your skin absorb it. There is good scientific evidence that tea tree oil is effective for treating acne. Mix 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of a carrier oil - olive oil, jojoba oil, coconut oil - and 8-10 drops of tea tree oil and apply to the irritated parts of your skin.  This can decrease itching, irritation, and symptoms associated with eczema, water warts, and viral skin infections in both children and adults. This mixture can also be used for allergic skin reactions to nickel. More studies are needed to determine how effective this treatment is though. Incorporate 3 or 4 drops of tea tree oil into your regular shampoo. This mixture helps to relieve dry flaky scalp, dandruff, and psoriasis.  Add a few drops to your shampoo and wash your hair as you usually would.  You can also mix a few drops of tea tree oil with a carrier oil (e.g. jojoba oil, olive oil, coconut oil) and apply the mixture directly to your scalp. Leave it on for an hour, and then wash your hair as you usually would.  The scientific evidence is unclear on the effectiveness of tea tree oil to treat scalp conditions. Mix equal parts tea tree oil and olive oil and rub the mixture on the affected area twice a day.  It takes about 4 weeks for the treatment to work. For toenail fungus, apply 100% tea tree oil to the infected toe, 2 times a day for 6 months. If you do not want to use undiluted tea tree oil, mix 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and 1 to 2 drops of tea tree oil and apply to your toe using a cotton ball.  Bandage the cotton ball to your toe and leave it on overnight. Tea tree oil can be used for both bacterial and yeast infections. Apply coconut oil or olive oil to a tampon and then add 2 - 4 drops of tea tree oil.  Insert the tampon, and leave it in for an hour.  Do this for 3 to 5...

Лечите прыщи. Лечите проблемы с кожей. Добавьте масло чайного дерева в шампунь. Избавьтесь от грибкового заболевания ног и ногтей на ногах. Лечите вагинальную инфекцию. Узнайте, когда нельзя использовать масло чайного дерева. Остерегайтесь возможных побочных эффектов.


Article in English: Tea tree oil is a renowned anti-fungal and antibacterial herbal remedy, making it great for mild to moderate acne. In a study comparing the efficacy of tea tree oil and benzoyl peroxide, tea tree oil proved just as effective in fighting acne and reducing lesions. Whereas benzoyl peroxide works quicker than tea tree oil, tea tree oil produces less side effects in patients. Spread over your face, wait 3-5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Fill an empty 1 gallon (3.8 L) jug with water and put it in the freezer for 2 hours. Pour  the water into a bowl, then dip your face in the water for 25 seconds (5 dips for 5 seconds each). Repeat a few times every day. Once acne has improved, keep it at bay with a milder solution of 20% apple cider vinegar and 80% water. Do not use cheap vinegar. Apple cider vinegar is about $3-4 for a large bottle at any supermarket (more at health food stores). It will last months. Potassium alum can usually be found in the spice aisle in some grocery stores. Although widely used as a natural deodorant and styptic (lessens bleeding after a cut), alum is a natural antiseptic and astringent, meaning that it shrinks skin tissue. Try to get a big block instead of in powder form. Powdered alum can be a little too abrasive. Gently wipe the alum over the affected areas, being careful not to irritate or inflame any pimples. Slice a raw potato in half and apply onto acne. Raw potato can heal as well as act an anti-inflammatory. Again, wash the residue off your skin gently with water after using.

Article in English: Teachers enjoy answering your questions about the day’s lesson because it shows that you were paying attention. If you ask questions, you will better understand what’s going on in class. If you don't know the answer to a question, ask! It shows that you are engaged in the material.  If you’re uncomfortable speaking up in class, talk to your teacher after class about something that you thought was interesting or was confusing. This will clarify the issue in your mind and allow for the teacher to explain the concept to you privately. The more specific the question, the better it will be. For example, you might ask "when Dickens writes 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times' at the beginning of A Tale of Two Cities, is he referring specifically to London and Paris in that order? Or does he mean it was the best and worst of times in both places?" Support your opinions with quotes from the book, or make connections to other books the class has read. Most teachers give participation grades, and these can really help to bring up your final grade. Cutting class will lower your grade. You will miss out on valuable class material and will be behind when you decide to return to class. It’s also inconsiderate to your teacher. Ignoring directions on an assignment will usually hurt your grade. At minimum, it will annoy your teacher. For example, if he or she assigns a 3 page paper, don’t hand in a 2 page paper with extra large font and margins. Take pride in your work and take care to fulfill the assignment or paper requirements. Skipping assignments is a sure way to get a low grade in any class. Be sure to turn in all assignments, even if you think you didn't do your best work. Getting at least some points on a paper or other assignment is far better than earning zero points. For example, Charles Dickens’ David Copperfield is often assigned in high school English classes. It is one of the most studied novels of the nineteenth century. You might ask your teacher if there are particular studies or...

You can keep this at your desk or carry it with you in a planner. Sometimes, physically jotting things down can help you remember them. Different people are productive at different points during the day. It can help to know when you're most able to use your time wisely and plan to work during those times. For example, if you find yourself energetic during the mornings, try to get the bulk of your work done then. During the night, you can wind down and do relaxing things you enjoy. It can take awhile to identify your energy peaks. Try tracking your energy level and overall focus throughout the day for a week or so. This should help you figure out when you would be the most productive. It can help to make a game plan for the day in the morning. As soon as you get up, think about what you need to do and sketch a rough outline of when to do it. Keep work obligations as well as social obligations and errands in mind.  For example, say you work from eight to four and need to call your grandmother for her birthday and pick up your dry cleaning after work. In the morning, figure out what order you should do those activities. If your grandmother is in a later timezone, plan to call her after work so it's not too late where she is. Then, plan on picking up your dry cleaning. No one can work continuously without a break or an interruption. It's okay to invite interruptions and distractions into your day on occasion. It can help to schedule these kinds of deviations from necessary tasks. This way, interruptions are less likely to take over and...

Article in English: Tell him the truth (as much as you can). Don't be mean or tell lies—tell him simply that you don't think that the relationship is working out. Try to avoid "let's just be friends" or "it's not you, it's me," as these cliches will make it sound like you haven't put much thought into his feelings. Let him know that it's time to move on, that it just isn't working, and that you hope the two of you can do this maturely. Look him in the eyes when you're talking. Let him see that this is hurting you, too. It's likely that he will want a bigger explanation, even if he doesn't say it right away. Be open to talking to him. It will show him you're open to talking, and thus that you'll work to be a good friend when he's ready. It will also give him the closure that he may need to move on. He may not want to ask questions or talk at all, though he may come to you with questions later. That's fine. If he really doesn't want to talk, don't push it. There are a number of ways he can react; if he's stunned into silence or just wants to leave right away, then fine. But he might really, really want to know why. And you might just have to tell him -- to the extent that you can without hurting his feelings. If you think he doesn't care about you, give him one or two concrete examples, as long as it doesn't sound accusatory. Usually, you won't need to go into it that much. If you have an idea that it's not working, then he will probably be on the same page. Though you may be angry, hurt, or crushed, there's no need to go into it by calling him names, being rude, or making him feel even worse. You should go into it with your head held high, and have him think of you as positively as he can when he looks back on the relationship. No matter how bad things are, things were probably pretty good once, and there's no reason to ruin all that just because you're angry or hurt. If he really hurt you, of course, then this doesn't mean that you should be super nice to him. Just avoid cursing, slapping him, or being excessively mean. Once...

Article in English: Tell the reader who wrote the article, their credentials, and the title of the article. Then, briefly explain what the article is about and why it’s important. You might say, “Inez Lopez is a former high school educator who now teaches curriculum planning as a researching professor. Her article entitled “Homework Smarts: Why Kids Need Homework” discusses why students benefit from regular homework assignments. Lopez also differentiates between effective homework and busywork, which helps educators change their lessons for the better.” Write your thesis as the last sentence in your introduction. Focus your thesis on the original author’s thesis, hypothesis, or research question. State their core ideas in your own words, but don’t include any of your own ideas. For instance, you’d write, “Lopez argues homework is necessary to support in-class instruction because students retain more information, the class covers more curriculum, and students get more one-on-one attention in class.” Re-read the 1-sentence summary you wrote in the article margins. Pull out the main point from that section, then write a sentence that summarizes what the author is saying. Do this for each section of the article.  A short summary is 1 page or shorter. For a short summary, you’ll write either 1 long paragraph or an introduction, a body paragraph, and a conclusion. Write, “According to Lopez, students who complete homework assignments for their core classes perform better academically.” For a long article, you’ll typically write a summary that’s longer than a page. In this case, you’ll write a separate 4-6 sentence body paragraph for each main point. State your summary of the main point in the first 1-2 sentences of the paragraph.  If your summary is longer than 1 page, it’s considered a longer summary. You might write, “In her study, Lopez compared 2 different classrooms at the same high school, one that had homework and one that didn’t. Lopez asserts that students who completed homework assignments performed better academically.” The...

Article in English: Tell the talker you'd like to engage in reflective listening to make sure you are understanding. This will create lots of opportunity for you to get clarification and to verify your perceptions of the other. Your responses to others may be distorted because of personal biases or projections. Sigmund Freud introduced projection as a defense mechanism and was later expanded upon by Anna Freud.To avoid dealing with our own unacceptable or undesirable thoughts and feelings, we attribute them to another person. This then colors our impressions of the other person's behaviors and shapes the way we respond to him or her. This in turn, influences the other's perception of you. To be sure you are accurately perceiving others and responding appropriately, you should seek to verify your perceptions. We engage in self-deception to protect our sense of self. We all possess traits and display behavior we are not proud of. Carl Jung referred to the collection of these unsavory traits and unacceptable thoughts and feelings as the shadow. Projecting our shadow onto others relieves us of the guilt and shame we experience when we acknowledge it. Others will not be so willfully blind of these parts of your personality, so denying them will only inhibit your ability to see yourself as others see you. If others have commented about your jealousy, or intolerance, or any other trait most would like to deny, explore the possibility you are indeed those things and accept them. If something about your personality causes you enough distress that you would rather lie or hide it, you should be working to change it. You must first acknowledge the trait(s) to change them. As with any habit, projecting happens subconsciously. Once you've acknowledged you project, ask others to help you become self-aware by telling you when you are doing it. In addition to projecting our own thoughts and feelings on others, we sometimes incorporate others' projections into our sense of self. It may be that someone in your life projects negative feelings and...

Article in English: Tell this person you would like to discuss something with her confidentially. It’s easier talking to someone you love about your problems. Ask her if it is a good time to talk. A person who is preoccupied or stressed herself may not be in the best position to help you. If possible, pick a trusted person who you know has gone through a similar experience to yours. She is more likely to understand your current position and her empathy can be consoling. Tell your confidant about what happened that gave rise to these feelings. Tell her why it’s important to you. Voice anything that you are thinking and need to get off your chest. Simply voicing how you feel has a cathartic effect and is beneficial for your physical health too. In response to your story, the other person may share her own personal experiences and show you that whatever happened to you can happen to anyone. She may give you a fresh perspective that you had not thought of before.

Article in English: Tell your doctor you are worried about your fertility, and get an examination. They will ask you about your medical and family history, and perform a physical exam. They will examine your genitals, and may ask you about your sexual history and sexual development. Semen analysis looks at a sample of your semen under a microscope. A lab technician, doctor, or computer count how many sperm appear in the squares of a grid pattern. This is the most common sperm count test, so ask your doctor to schedule you an appointment with a fertility specialist. Semen analysis tests are usually repeated at least twice over a period of time. This is because sperm count varies somewhat, and your doctor will need an accurate representation of your sperm count over time. A second sample is usually collected one to two weeks after the first.

Article in English: Tell your parents how you feel.  It is possible that your perception of their feelings about your actions is not the same as their actual feelings about your actions.   Be proactive and ask them to sit down and talk with you, possibly in a neutral space free of (electronic and other) distractions such as a neighborhood park. To really have meaningful communication, you need to both talk and listen.  Try to put yourself in your parents’ shoes and really understand what they are saying as they talk to you.  If they say something that confuses or offends you, ask them about it.  Once the lines of communication are open, you and your parents can start rebuilding your trust relationship. A sincere apology can go a long way to making your parents trust you again.  The best apology acknowledges your wrongdoing, restates what happened clearly, acknowledges the nature of the hurt or harm done, asks for forgiveness, and proposes a means of avoiding the error in the future.  Try not to expect anything in return.  Though it would be nice if the apology immediately fixed everything, that is unlikely to happen.  It’s possible that your parents may not know the best way to respond to your apology. The words you use are less important than speaking genuinely. Another part of apologizing is forgiving yourself. The most obvious way to figure out how to get your parents’ trust back is simply to ask them what you can do.  They may not have an answer ready, but tell them that they can think about it and let you know at a later time. Be honest in your response to their request.  If they seem to have an unreasonably long list of things for you to do, tell them (without whining) that you think you would have trouble being successful at meeting their expectations.  Offer a compromise instead. Trust builds trust, and trusting them will help encourage them to trust you. In fact, you may find that you do not feel like you trust them right now; it is normal to feel that way.  Trust is a two-way relationship, not a one-way feeling, so you...

Article in English: Tell yourself that negative emotions are not objective facts: you are never forced to feel emotional pain. Remember that emotional pain comes from your own mind. This means that you can rise above many negative emotions such as fear, anxiety, and anger. When a negative emotion threatens to emerge, simply dismiss it with the mantra: "This is only in my mind." This is an essential component of mindfulness. In addition to armoring yourself against emotional pain you feel in the present, you can also use mindfulness techniques to prepare yourself for future emotional pain. Think about events in the near future that might cause you distress, such as a stressful exam, a potential fight with your girlfriend, or a difficult task at work. Imagine a calm, unemotional response to each of these future events, and practice overcoming these negative emotions. Soon you will inure yourself to these strong emotions, and you will be better equipped to handle yourself calmly. Every day, perform a few periodic "mental check-ins" to determine your emotional well-being at that specific time. Even when you are not sad or upset, being mindful of what you are feeling and why will help you understand your instinctive emotional responses to everyday life. Eventually, your mindfulness will allow you to control your emotional responses more effectively. When you perform your "mental check-in," ask yourself the following questions:  What am I feeling in this moment? Am I feeling a single, overwhelming emotion, or a combination of emotions? Simply giving your emotions a label can help you view them more objectively.  Why am I feeling this way? Are my emotions due to internal factors (such as my own fears) or external factors (such as when somebody yells at me)? Do I like the way I am feeling now? Perhaps you are feeling joyful or grateful about life and want to foster these emotions. But perhaps you are feeling anxious or nervous and do not want to experience these emotions in the future. What can I do to control my feelings in the future?...

Article in English: Tempeh isn't always easy to find in grocery stores, but if you have a health food store or a natural foods store in your area you'll find it in the refrigerated section, close to the tofu. If you'd prefer not to buy commercially-made tempeh, you can make your own. The process is time-consuming, but you'll be able to rest assured that your tempeh contains only natural ingredients. Making tempeh yourself can be done with 2 cups of hulled soybeans, 2 teaspoons of vinegar and a packet of tempeh starter. Boil the beans until they're soft, then drain them and pat dry. Mix in the vinegar and tempeh starter, then place the beans in a container with air holes to allow them to ferment. They must be kept at a temperature of 88 °F (31 °C) for 24 - 48 hours. During this time, mycelium will grow over the beans and fuse them together into a solid block. Tempeh comes in a dense, brick-shaped block. While it can certainly be sliced and cooked up right away, many recipes call for boiling or simmering it in hot water for a few minutes to soften the tempeh before using another cooking method to finish it. Boiling or simmering the tempeh before frying, baking or sauteing it results in tempeh pieces that are pleasingly soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. To boil or simmer tempeh.  Remove it from the packaging. Bring a pot of water to a boil or simmer, depending on how soft you want the tempeh to be. Hotter water will result in softer tempeh. Place the entire block of tempeh in the boiling or simmering water. Cook it for 8-10 minutes. Remove the tempeh from the water and pat it dry. The most common ways to break up the block of tempeh are by slicing it into thin strips or chopping it into bite-sized pieces. You can also shred it or chop it finely so that it takes on texture of ground beef. Cut the tempeh to whatever side is right for the dish you want to include it in. For example:  If you're making barbecued tempeh, slice it into long strips. If you're making tempeh tacos, shred or crumble it. If you're adding it to...

Article in English: Termites are divided into three broad types: drywood; subterranean; and dampwood. They each have different characteristics and it is best to be certain that you know which type of termite is which so you can take the appropriate course of action. Subterranean termites feed off the cellulose in wood. The point where wood comes into contact with soil is the main entry point for subterranean termites. Although they are generally dug in below your house and you may not see the termites themselves, it’s worth knowing a little about their appearance in case you find one and you want to identify it. There are three so-called ‘castes’ in a termite colony, each of which are different.  Alates (more commonly known as swarmers) are dark-brown or black, and are around a quarter to a half inch long, with two pairs of wings of very similar length. Workers don’t have wings, are generally a quarter inch long, and are cream coloured. Soldiers are also wingless, but they have large mandibles (jaws). They are the defenders of the colony and are distinctive for their jaws and their creamy torso, and their brownish head. Probably the best way to determine whether or not you have an infestation is to look for the signs and marks that often indicate that a subterranean termite colony has taken up residence. One indicator is wood that appears layered. Subterranean termites only consume the softwood, so the hardwood portion remains, and this could give the wood a layered look.   Dark patches or blisters in wood flooring can indicate termites.  Wood may not look damaged, but if you tap it and it sounds hollow, this suggest that though the veneer is undamaged, the softer wood beneath has been eaten away. Alates (or swarmer) termites are the ones you are most likely to find. What you think are flying ants, might in fact be swarmers. One difference is that swarmers are smaller and have four wings of about the same size, whereas ants have a pair large wings and one of smaller wings.  Once they have mated, swarmers will shed their wings....

Article in English: Thanks to brain chemistry and social reinforcement, people in positions of power or control are less capable of empathizing with others. And it turns out that even a temporary “power trip” reduces your ability to “feel the pain” of others. To tap into this element of human nature, keep visualizing times in your life when you’ve felt most powerful or in control. For instance, before any instance when you might run into the other person, remind yourself that you’ve built a successful business from the ground up, that you’ve secured your financial future, or that you’ve earned the respect of those around you. When you become weak in your resolve to be cold hearted, you will find that anger is a very good motivator. When times get tough and you feel tempted to cave in, get angry. Remind yourself about all the times you were mistreated, lied to, or left without the support you needed. Write down a detailed list of all the ways the person hurt your or let you down, and refer to it whenever necessary. Or, if it helps, stick their picture on your dart board or punching bag and go at it. It’s important to occupy your mind and keep yourself busy during this transitional period. Take up a new hobby that you’ve always wanted to try, or get back to doing something you used to enjoy. If certain activities or hobbies remind you too much of the person you’ve turned cold hearted towards, stop doing those things at least temporarily. Or, change the conditions — join a new gym, take an art class instead of a cooking class, etc. If the challenges of the detrimental relationship you’ve been in have hurt your connections with others, work on being a good friend, sibling, parent, etc. Show those loved ones who've been on your side the whole time that you appreciate their support. Don't let your cold heartedness extend to them. Show them the loving warmth they deserve! Make good use of all the time, attention, and affection you’ve withdrawn from the other person by focusing it back on yourself. Prioritizing your own needs will help...

Article in English: That doesn't mean they have no empathy or kindness. Autistic people are usually very caring people who just struggle with mind-reading. Remind the person you are explaining autism to that many autistic people show empathy differently, making them appear insensitive when really they are just not understanding the emotion you are experiencing.  Explain that it's best to be clear about how you are feeling. For example, an autistic person might not understand why you are looking down, but if you tell them that you're feeling sad because your dad is upset with you, they will have a better idea of how to respond to you. Many autistic people are deeply passionate about a few specific subjects, and could talk about them for great lengths of time.   Talking about the autistic person's special interests can be a great way to connect with them. Some people might think this is rude, but since autistic people can have trouble figuring out what others are thinking, they don't always know when someone is disinterested. Some autistic people are overly cautious about discussing their special interests, for fear of being rude. If that is the case with this person, they should be assured that it is okay to talk about their passions once in a while, especially if their conversation partner is asking questions about them. It is important for people to understand that autistic people feel love, happiness, and pain just like others do. Just because they may seem detached at times does not mean that they are devoid of feelings—in fact, many autistic people feel emotions very deeply.  If the person has a hard time with surprises or bad news, try to break it gently, and then comfort them in a way that works for them.

Article in English: That's right -- snatiation. It's a legitimate medical disorder where you can't stop sneezing because your stomach is full. It generally happens immediately after consuming quite a large meal. So how do you avoid it? Don't eat so much. In case you're as curious as George, it's a backronym -- Sneezing Non-controllably At a Time of Indulgence of the Appetite—a Trait Inherited and Ordained to be Named. Originally it was a portmanteau of sneeze and satiation. Now that you know it's a real thing monitor your eating activity. When do you usually find yourself sneezing? " If you find that you sneeze when exposed to bright lights, you could have photoptarmosis or the photic sneeze reflex. It's present in a remarkable 18-35% of people and is sometimes referred to as ACHOO - Autosomal dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst syndrome. The more you know, right? It's hereditary and can be treated with antihistamines if it's inconvenient. Otherwise, wear sunglasses (polarized, especially) or scarves. If bright lights (or the sun) are present, keep your eyes away and focus on something darker or more neutral. This is doubly important if you are operating a motorized vehicle. If you're entering a high sneeze-risk environment (say a cloud of pepper or a field of pollen), take precautions to keep your sneezing fits at bay.   Keep a tissue on hand. Often sneezing and blowing your nose go hand in hand. Have a way to wet your nostrils. This can stop sneezing fits before they start. Though snorting water is definitely a feasible option, you may want to stick with wetting a tissue and applying to your nostrils, using your eyedrops, or sniffing the steam from a cup of coffee. For those of us that don't suffer from the completely random sneeze attack and are privy to more constant bouts, it may be more of an environmental thing. In addition to talking to your doctor, be allergy smart. A certain amount of sneezing can be prevented.  Get on antihistamines. Not only will these fight sneezing, but they'll keep the coughing, runny...

Article in English: The "Print Screen" key will be in the upper-right corner of the keyboard next to the Delete key.  If your keyboard has a number pad on the right side of it, you'll find the prt sc key left of the top row of keys in the number pad. Note whether or not the "prt sc" (or similar) text is at the top of the key or at the bottom of the key. If it's at the bottom of the key underneath a different text option, you may need to use the Fn key as well. This key, which has the Windows logo on it, is usually in the lower-right section of the keyboard. If the "prt sc" text is at the bottom of the key and below some text instead of at the top of the key, you'll need to use the Fn key to force your computer to recognize the Print Screen function. You'll usually find the Fn key in the lower-left side of the keyboard. Go to the page or program in which you want to take a screenshot. Make sure you do this through the next step as well. If the "prt sc" text is below another text item on the Print Screen key, make sure you hold down the Fn key as well. You should only have to do this for a second or so. Make sure you're holding the ⊞ Win key while doing this. This indicates that Windows has taken a screenshot of your screen's contents. If the screen doesn't dim, try releasing and then pressing again the prt sc key. If this still doesn't work, hold down the Fn key as well if you weren't doing so before, or let go of the Fn key and try again if you were using it.

Article in English: The "classic" cross country skiing described above is how most people learn to cross country ski. Skate skiing is best for athletic skiers interested in faster movement or racing, or for people with experience ice skating or roller skating. Skate skiing involve powerful, angled motions of the skis to provide a faster boost. This is rarely possible away from groomed trails, with a firm snow surface. Specialized skate skis are also helpful for providing additional strength and control, although you may attempt to skate ski on ordinary cross-country skis.  Note: While most skate skiers do use ski trails, you cannot skate ski inside the ski tracks cut into the trails. Skate on the surface of the trail itself, next to the ski tracks. Bend at the ankles and knees, but keep your upper body straight and relaxed. Bend your elbows and keep your hands in front of you. When you are first learning, it's a good idea to practice without ski poles, so you can focus on your leg motions. Ski poles will add extra power later, but should not replace strong leg movements. Keep the skis pointed outward in front of you in a V position. Turn your right foot onto your little toe, setting the outward edge of your skis against the snow. Rotate your ankle as you push gently against the snow, so the ski returns to a flat position ready to glide forward. Bring your right foot back into its original position, then practice this motion a few times with each foot. Still without the poles, practice this same motion, but push harder and glide on the opposite ski. Push with your right foot, then lift it as you shift all your weight onto your left ski to glide forward. Repeat the motion in reverse with your left foot, trying to keep your whole body directly above and in line with the ski moving forward. If you are having trouble keeping your balance, stop and practice balancing on one ski at a time without moving. Once you can repeat the gliding motion, practice the "V-1" skate skiing motion. To do this, plant both poles into the snow at the...

Article in English: The "numbers" in clippers refer to the blade guards, which determine the length of your hair. Generally, the smaller the number, the shorter the cut. For instance, a "0" will give you barely-there hair, while an "8" is 1 inch (25 mm). In between, the blade guards go up by an eighth of an inch (3.18 millimeters) for each number, starting with 1⁄8 inch (3.2 mm) for number "1."

Article in English: The A-1 has three modes that you'll be interested in: fully-programmed AE (which is fully automatic), shutter-priority AE, aperture-priority AE and fully manual.       Turn your mode dial to "Tv" and the shutter speed to "P" for program automatic.  Programmed AE will make the camera set both aperture and shutter speeds for you automatically. Turn your mode dial to "Tv" ("Time value", which is Canon's silly name for "shutter priority"), and use your AT dial to select the green "P" as the shutter speed. Most of the time, this will be what you want to use if you're not using your aperture for creative depth of field tricks, or if you're not using your shutter speed to creative effect; it generally does a good job of picking something that works for most photos most of the time. (Sorry, but this is 1978; you can't shift the program.)       For shutter-priority auto-exposure, turn the mode dial to "Tv" and select your shutter speed (here, 1/125 sec).  Shutter-priority AE will allow you to select a shutter speed, and then the A-1 will pick an aperture for you. If you want either very fast or very slow shutter speeds for creative effect, then use this. Turn your mode dial to "Tv" and select a shutter speed. Remember that the speeds in yellow on the dial are shutter speeds in seconds, the white numbers are ones in fractions of a second.       For aperture-priority auto-exposure, turn the mode dial to "Av" and select your aperture.  Aperture-priority AE will allow you to select an aperture, and then the A-1 will select a shutter speed for you. Use this if you want to use very wide or very small apertures (i.e. if you want creative control over depth of field). Turn your mode dial to "Av" and select an aperture with the AT dial to get aperture priority AE.Note that this won't allow you to select apertures smaller than f/22, but you shouldn't be doing that anyway. Fully manual exposure is a last resort for using in extremely dim or otherwise impossible lighting conditions. You can select fully manual mode by setting...

Article in English: The A1C test measures your blood sugar control over the past two to three months and aids in the detection of Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes. This blood test is not affected by recent food intake so you don’t have to fast before the test. If your doctor has recommended an A1C test, she will give you a form detailing what test should be conducted. Bring the form to the laboratory you will be testing at.  You may also want to make an appointment for the test. Some laboratories or testing centers will take appointments, which should reduce the time you need to wait in line. Be sure to use a laboratory that is the primary provider for your health insurance. The A1C test is a simple blood test that can be done by two different ways, either using a venipuncture or a finger prick test.  During venipuncture, a needle will be inserted into a vein in your arm and blood is drawn into a test tube. During a finger prick test, the tip of your finger will be punctured with a needle (lancet). The laboratory technician may also gently squeeze your finger to form a blood drop that she will then collect. Once the blood is drawn, a sample is sent to the laboratory for testing The A1C test measures what percentage of your hemoglobin is coated with sugar, also called glycated hemoglobin. When your A1C level is higher than normal, it indicates a poor blood sugar control, which translates to a higher risk of diabetes.  A normal A1C level ranges from 4.5 to 5.7% glycated hemoglobin. A 5% A1C level translates to 97 mg/dL (5.4 mmol/L) blood sugar level.  Results ranging from 5.7 to 6.4% are considered to be in the prediabetic stage and indicates a higher risk for developing diabetes. Results showing an A1C level of 6.5 percent or higher are considered diabetic. If your results are positive for diabetes, your doctor may confirm the results with an oral or plasma glucose test (see below) and/or will initiate a treatment plan for you to begin. People who are diabetic are often told to try to keep their HBAC1 under 7%. You should be aware...

Article in English: The British Isles are the world capitol of pudding recipes, and hundreds of these have become popular dishes across former British territories. While the section on other pudding recipes contains links to many of these, this method covers a classic, easy to make dessert: the summer pudding. This pudding is best when chilled for at least four to six hours, although it can be eaten earlier. This bread will be used to create a dome shape for the pudding. Cut the slices into "wonky rectangles" with one end wider than the other to make this easier. A few triangular pieces the same length as the rectangles will also be useful. You may also cut a large circle of bread out to serve as the base of the domed pudding, but you can use spare wedges instead. You'll want slightly stale white bread for this recipe, as this will soak up the fruit juice faster. If you're cursed by a breadbox full of freshly baked loaves, toast the slices in a 350ºF (175ºC) oven for 15–20 minutes or until dry and slightly brown. Wash and dry the berries, and defrost frozen berries before using. Once the berries are ready, add ¾ cup (175g) golden caster sugar and 3 tbsp (45 mL) water to a saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is melted and boils for approximately 60 seconds. Golden caster sugar is ideal for this recipe, but is not widely available outside the UK and some Commonwealth countries. Superfine sugar is the best substitute. Add the 2 lb 12 oz (1¼ kg) berries to the saucepan. Heating them will bring out the juices that will soak into the bread. You only need to cook this for another two or three minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.  If using strawberries, you can optionally keep these at room temperature and add later to preserve their firm texture.  Remove stems from currants before using. Blackcurrant liqueur adds a rich flavor, if you don't mind making your pudding alcoholic. Stir in ¼ cup (60 mL) for a strong flavor, or less if you prefer just a hint.

Article in English: The Church of Scientology claims that the method works 100% of the time for people who commit fully to using it. In that "commit fully" though, is a lot of real work. Do you want to improve your life and reach a state of contentment and happiness? Are you willing to do what it takes? If you're interested in Scientology, approaching it with an open mind and a full commitment to change your life for the better is necessary. The Tone Scale is used in auditing to place your overall attitude and emotional state somewhere on a quantifiable scale, which runs from +40 (Serenity of Being) to -40 (Total Failure). Depending on your situation, your attitudes will fall in a variety of places on the tone scale at any given time. It's fine to explore the tone scale by yourself, but it's also important to let an experienced auditor guide you through the process to more thoroughly integrate the concepts into your practice. Dynamics are an essential part of Scientology, referring to the eight classifications of survival, which Scientologists believe is an essential part of changing your life for the better. A person progresses through various dynamics over the course of a life, the first of which is your innate desire to survive. Babies have this desire, and animals, but we gradually progress through various mind-body stages of improvement over the course of a life dedicated to improvement. This is a life-long struggle. The Eight Dynamics are as follows:  Self Creativity Group Survival Species Life Forms Physical Universe Spiritual Dynamic Infinity The life of a Scientologist involves receiving period audits, assessing your personal growth and the stages of your improvement, and realigning your practice in accordance to where you're going. Receiving periodic audits is an essential part of improving your life and your practice as a Scientologist, to get your mind-body alignment in harmony.

Article in English: The DEFCON scale is a way of assigning a numerical value to the readiness of the American military. Higher DEFCON values are used for lower levels of readiness (during more peaceful situations), while lower DEFCON values are used for higher levels of readiness (during tenser situations where the possibility of military action is more likely). A DEFCON level of 5 corresponds to ordinary peacetime, while a DEFCON level of 1 (which has never been reached) corresponds to the most dangerous situations, like thermonuclear war. Note that different branches of the military can be issued different DEFCON levels. For instance, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, which is generally considered one of the tensest moments in American military history, the Strategic Air Command went on DEFCON 2, while the rest of the military went on DEFCON 3. A DEFCON level of 5 is a very good thing — this is the condition used to designate normal peacetime military readiness. At a DEFCON 5, the US military takes no wide-scale precautionary defense measures beyond what is ordinarily required. Note that DEFCON 5 isn't necessarily a sign that the world is at peace — conflicts, even major ones, may be occurring around the world during a DEFCON 5. However, in this case, the military judges that these events pose no significant defense threats. DEFCON 4 is the first level of readiness above the baseline value of DEFCON 5 and thus constitutes a fairly mild increase in readiness (though an increase from DEFCON 5 to DEFCON 4 is certainly significant). This DEFCON level signifies increased intelligence-gathering efforts and, sometimes, the heightening of national security measures. However, it is not usually an indication that the military (or the nation) are in imminent danger of attack. In the modern world, it is thought that DEFCON 4 is sometimes issued after minor to moderate terrorist attacks and politically-motivated killings, or after would-be plots are uncovered. Presumably, this is done in anticipation of further violence as an attempt to...

Article in English: The DNS (Domain Name System) is the service that translates web domain names into IP addresses so that you can connect to websites. If your local DNS files have been corrupted, you may not be able to load certain websites. Flushing your DNS will clear out your local DNS information and load a fresh copy.  Windows - Press ⊞ Win+R and type cmd to open the Command Prompt. Type ipconfig /flushdns and press ↵ Enter. You will receive a message that the DNS cache has been flushed, and you can close the Command Prompt. Mac - Open the Terminal from the Utilities folder. Type dscacheutil -flushcache and press ⏎ Return. Then type sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder and press ⏎ Return to restart the DNS service. You'll be prompted for your admin password. Typically you'll connect to the DNS provided by your internet service provider, but there are many more options. Some may even result in faster browsing. Perform a web search for "free DNS list" to find up-to-date listings of free DNS providers. You can typically find speed comparisons as well.  There will typically be two addresses: the Primary and the Secondary. You'll need both in a moment. Note that not all public DNSs allow access to the same content. It's recommended that you use Google or OpenDNS for the most accessibility. Once you've found the server you want to connect to, you'll need to point your computer to it.  Windows - Press ⊞ Win+R and type ncpa.cpl. This will open the Network Connections window. Right-click on your network adapter and select "Properties." Highlight "Internet Protocol Version 4" in the list and click the "Properties" button. Select "Use the following DNS server addresses" and enter in the addresses you want to use.

Article in English: The Download link will download a very small torrent file to your computer. opening this file in your client will begin the actual download process. The Magnet link will open your torrent client directly, without downloading the small torrent file first. Either method is fine for loading the torrent. The torrent will likely start slowly, but should pick up speed as you connect to more seeders. Depending on the size of the file you are downloading, the number of seeders, and the speed of your connection, the download could take anywhere from a few minutes to several days. Some computers and network setups may make it difficult to connect to other torrent users. There are several things you can do to help increase your download speed.  Make sure nothing else on your network is using the connection, such as streaming video or gaming. Modern routers will give BitTorrent traffic a low priority on the network if there is anything else using your bandwidth. Ensure that your torrent traffic is the only thing happening on your network if you need the files quickly. Open the Options menu in your torrent client and select the "Connection" section. Check the "Enable UPnP port mapping". This will help your client open the correct ports in your router. Your router will need to have UPnP enabled as well. See How to Access a Router for information on opening your router's configuration page. Put a cap on your Upload rate in the "Speed" section of the Options menu. If your torrent is maxing out your upload rate, it will likely slow down the rest of your computer, and can potentially disrupt your download. Set the upload rate to a small number while you're downloading to maximize your speed. Run a virus scan after you have finished downloading the files. For many antivirus programs, you can right-click the downloaded file or folder and start a scan. You can also perform a full scan on your computer, though this will take longer. Scanning your files will not guarantee that you'll find any viruses that may be there, but it will...

Article in English: The FDA requires sunscreen to retain its protective power for at least three years from the date of manufacture. However, you should always note expiration dates. If the date has passed, ditch the old bottle and buy some new sunscreen.  If your product doesn’t have an expiration date when you purchase it, use a permanent marker or a label to write the purchase date on the bottle. This way you’ll know how long you’ve had the product. Obvious changes in the product, such as color changes, separation, or different consistency, are signs that the sunscreen has expired. The chemicals in sunscreen take time to bind to your skin and become fully protective. Apply your sunscreen before you go out.  Sunscreen on the skin should be applied 30 minutes before you go out into the sun. Lip sunscreen should be applied 45-60 minutes before going into the sun.  Sunscreen needs to :"cure" on the skin to be fully effective. This is especially important in the water-resistance factor. If you put on sunscreen and jump into the pool 5 minutes later, much of your protection will be lost. This is also very important for caring for children. Children are usually wriggly and impatient, and are usually doubly so when excited about an outdoor adventure; after all, who can stand still when the ocean is right there? Instead, try to sunscreen before leaving the house, or in the parking lot, or waiting for the bus. One of the biggest mistakes in using sunscreen is to not use enough. Adults usually need about one ounce -- a palm-ful, or about a shot glass full -- of sunscreen to cover exposed skin.  To apply cream or gel sunscreen, squeeze a dollop into your palm. Spread it all over the skin that will be exposed to the sun. Rub the sunscreen into your skin until you can't see the white anymore. To apply spray sunscreen, hold the bottle upright and move the bottle back and forth across your skin. Apply an even, generous coating. Make sure the wind doesn’t blow the sunscreen away before it contacts your skin. Don’t inhale spray sunscreen. Be...

Article in English: The Five Precepts in Buddhism are not commandments, but rather undertakings that you should strive toward. The first precept, which is to abstain from killing living beings, can be applied to all creatures, including humans, animals, and insects.  In positive, this precept means to be kind and to love other creatures. For many Buddhists, this precept also entails a general philosophy of nonviolence, which is why many Buddhist are vegetarian or vegan.  Unlike religions that say you'll be punished if you don't abide by the laws and rules of the religion, Buddhism focuses on the consequences that your actions will have in this life and the next. The second precept is to abstain from taking things that aren't yours or that aren't given to you. Again, this isn't something you're commanded to do, but rather something you must want to practice. Free will and choice are very important principles in Buddhism.  This precept means don't steal from friends, neighbors, family, strangers, or even businesses, and it could apply to money, food, clothes, and other items. On the other side of the coin, this precept also implies that you should strive to be generous, open, and honest. Give instead of take, and help others when you can. There are many things you can do to be generous and giving, including giving money to charity, volunteering your time, raising money and awareness for different causes, and donating gifts or money when possible. Another important notion in Buddhism is exploitation, and practicing Buddhists should undertake not to exploit themselves and others. This includes sexual, mental, emotional, and physical exploitation.  Buddhism does not mean you have to be abstinent, but it does mean that you should be conscious of your actions. If you are going to engage in sexual activity, it should only be with consenting adults. Traditionally, Buddhist teachings also indicated that a person should not have sex with a partner who was married or engaged. Instead of engaging in sexual misconduct, strive to practice...

Article in English: The French kiss is pretty basic, but if you want to really turn a guy on, you have to be able to do it right. Though you don't have to kiss perfectly the first time, remember that kissing is the gateway to other sexy acts, so if you show him you're a good kisser, he'll be even more turned on because he'll be thinking about what else is in store for him. Here's how to master the French kiss:  Don't be too eager. Gently slip your tongue inside his mouth and explore. Don't go in for the kill with your tongue until it feels right. Be gentle. Slowly and gently move your tongue around the guy's mouth. Don't slosh it around and leave gobs of spit everywhere. Don't ignore the rest of your body. Move your hands around his back, shoulders, and neck, and press your chest up against his. If you get bored with the French kiss, mix it up with a variety of other kisses. This is another sexy variation on the traditional French kiss. Stand about a foot or two away from your guy while you're kissing, so that you have to lean in towards each other, and grab each other to get closer. You'll end up rubbing your hips against your guy's every time you move back in after pulling apart, and he won't be able to keep his hands off of you. Kissing ain't just for lips, honey. You'll turn your guy on even more if you maximize your kissing abilities by kissing him all over his body. If you're just making out, then you can kiss him on the neck, upper chest, and even on the bottom of his earlobes.  If you've taken off his shirt, you can try kissing him above his waistband. Tell him you'll kiss him anywhere -- except his lips. That will turn him on even more. Once you've gotten comfortable with your guy, you can take your kissing up a notch by adding some little love nibbles to your routine. Just try some gentle bites on different parts of the guy's body, and he'll be turned on even more. Here are some places where biting will really turn your guy on:  Give him gentle bites on his earlobes. Try some gentle bites on his neck -- just be careful...

Article in English: The Ganzfeld technique is one that utilizes sensory deprivation to produce hallucinations and other unusual mental states.  In order to block out the sight you will be using ping pong ball halves, placing them over your eyes.  Get a ping pong ball and cut it directly and evenly in half to begin.  Draw a guideline with a  marker or pen to make sure your cut will be even and straight. You can try cutting the ping pong ball with a razor or sharp knife. In order to block out your sense of sound the Ganzfeld technique suggests that you play white noise or radio static.  This noise will prevent you from hearing other distinct sounds and may allow you to experience auditory hallucinations within the meaningless static.  You can find white noise generators on-line. If you have a radio you can try tuning it to a station that is only static. It's best to use headphones to ensure that the only sound you hear is the white noise. You will need to find a level of lighting that is not too dark and not too bright in order to get the most from the Ganzfeld technique.  The ideal lighting should be dim and indirect, allowing you to see the light through the ping pong balls but not brightly.  You can try using a lamp, moving it closer or further away from you to control the brightness. The original Ganzfeld experiments used red lighting. Once you have created the rest of your space, finding a source of dim lighting and white noise, you can now tape the ping pong ball halves over your eyes.  Taping the ping pong lids over your eyes will block your sense of sight almost entirely while allowing only the indirect lighting to come through.  Use a gentle and easily removable adhesive tape to affix the ping pong halves over your eyes. Make sure the ping pong ball fully covers your eyes. Be careful when taping the ping pong balls to your eyes. Once affixed, keep your eyes open under the cover of the ping pong ball halves. The sensory deprivation will allow your mind to wander and create very detailed and interesting experiences.  Your...

Article in English: The Holy rosary is not just a prayer tool - it's also a way to reflect on important events in the lives of Jesus and Mary. Many serious Catholics choose to do so by reflecting on certain sets of mysteries as they pray the Holy rosary. Each set contains five mysteries grouped according to certain emotional themes. Individual mysteries are events in the life of Jesus and/or Mary that are taken from the Bible. Each mystery is associated with a certain religious virtue or "spiritual fruit" (e.g. charity, patience, etc.). By reflecting on these mysteries, someone who prays the Holy rosary can work to strengthen his or her personal relationship with Jesus and and Mary, meditating on each event and the spiritual fruit associated with it. Note that not everyone who says the rosary chooses to do this, but anyone can.  There are currently four sets of mysteries. The fourth mystery was added by Pope John Paul II in 2002; the others are centuries old. The sets of mysteries are:  The Joyful Mysteries The Sorrowful Mysteries The Glorious Mysteries The Luminous Mysteries (added by Pope Saint John Paul II in 2002) To say the rosary in observance of one of the sets of mysteries, the person saying the rosary proceeds as normal from the crucifix through the first few beads. When s/he reaches the first decade, s/he meditates on the first mystery as s/he prays the Our Father, the ten Hail Marys, and so on. Upon reaching the second decade, s/he meditates on the second mystery as s/he prays. The person saying the rosary proceeds through the rosary in this fashion, reflecting on a different mystery for each decade. Each set of mysteries contains five mysteries - one for each decade of the rosary.  Traditionally, a person reflects on a different set of mysteries for each day of the week. Below are more detailed instructions for each set. The Joyful Mysteries are happy events in the lives of Jesus and Mary. These events occur fairly early in their respective stories - two even take place before the birth of Jesus. The Joyful Mysteries...
