Article in English: One of the worst things to spill all over your white clothes is red wine, but, perhaps surprisingly, a good remedy for this is to spill more wine on yourself. Take a little white wine this time, and carefully pour it onto the stain and it will work against the red wine. Dab at the edges of the stain gently with some kitchen towel to prevent it spreading. This won’t make the stain disappear, but can help it come out in a normal wash subsequently.

Article in English: One point must be emphasized before discussing management of individual causes of palpitations one by one. All the palpitations which are not normal must be evaluated by a doctor, and you must begin a management plan as prescribed by your doctor. If you do not know whether or not your palpitations are normal, scroll down to Method 3. For management of palpitations caused by stress, anxiety, depression and panic attacks, your doctor may have prescribed you some medications. In addition to those medications, the following strategies have been tried with variable success. These strategies can help to stop palpitations from occurring. The following steps can also be used to try to control palpitations caused by intense exercise. Holding your breath for a few seconds, or taking slow and deep breaths to calm yourself can help to control your palpitations. Breathing deeply can help you to feel relaxed. This can be a particularly effective method for people who experience fast, shallow breathing along with your palpitations. Try to breathe in through your nose for four seconds, hold your breath in for two seconds, and then release the air slowly through your mouth for four seconds. Coughing can help to ‘reset’ your heart’s rhythm and can end spells of tachycardia. This is particularly effective for people who have panic attacks that cause palpitations. Taking a cold shower, jumping in a cold pool, or even washing your face with cold water can help to control your palpitations. In particular, this can help if you feel like your heart is racing uncontrollably. The cold water can have a soothing effect on your body and slows your heartbeat. Tensing the muscles in your stomach, or the muscles all over your body, can help to focus your body and end your palpitations. The Valsalva maneuver may also help to do this: The Valsalva maneuver involves forcefully exhaling  against a closed airway. This is done by closing your mouth, pinching your nose, and then pressing out as if you are trying to blow up a balloon. This can also...

Article in English: One simple way to talk to a girl if you’re feeling shy about it is to give the girl a compliment. Keep it simple and sincere. You don’t need to tell the girl that she’s the prettiest girl in your school. Just tell her that you like the color of her sweater, that her new haircut looks nice, or that her earrings are really unique. You can also compliment her smile or her sense of humor, though you don’t need to get too personal, at first.  Simple compliments show a girl that you’re paying attention and that you care. You don’t have to start off with a compliment, but you can give the girl one if the conversation is lagging. Another way to not be so shy around girls is to actually work on getting to know them. While you don’t need to interrogate the girl, making an effort to ask some simple questions will make the girl see that you really care about her and want to get to know her better. You can ask the girl a few things about herself while also revealing things about yourself so she doesn’t feel like she’s sharing too much; a simple comment like, “I have two cats. Do you have any pets?” can make her feel more comfortable. Here are some things you can ask her about:  Her hobbies and interests Her favorite bands, TV shows, movies, or actors Her favorite foods Her favorite places to go in town Her friends Her siblings Her pets Her weekend plans Though asking the girl questions and being interested in her life can make you feel less shy, another thing you can do is share a bit about yourself while you’re talking to her. This will make you feel more at ease, because you’ll feel more comfortable while the girl gets to know you a bit, and it will also open the conversation up for her to share more about herself. You want her walking away from the conversation feeling like she’s learned something about you.  If you start to feel shy when you talk about more personal topics, just make sure you stick to the topics you know and feel the most comfortable talking about, whether it’s sports or your dog, as long as they are...

Article in English: One study showed that you can save $308 annually by growing your own food. On top of that, you can grow organic produce for less than it costs to buy it regularly from stores.  Since growing your own food takes more time than the average student has, consider joining a community garden. It's possible to put in hours on a local food farms and reap the benefits yourself. Less time passes between when food is harvested and when it's eaten with home gardens. This mean higher nutritional value for your food. Growing your own food is good for the environment as it reduces the number of trucks driving long distances from farm to store. If you're no longer reading or planning on teaching or learning from your books, they can be a nice addition to your savings. Likewise, if you have grown out of clothes, or don't need them anymore, consider selling them to bulk up your savings account.  Amazon will buy back many different books. If it's most likely to sit unused, consider making profit; textbooks are surprisingly valuable. Ebay is an easy market to post clothes for sale. Stores like ASOS and refurbished clothing stores (higher grade thrift) will buy back clothing they think is worth it. Although being a student entails a lot of studying, it's possible you will have enough time for a part-time job. Consider your interests and current studies when looking for work. This could be an opportunity for savings as well as advancing your future.  Food industry jobs offer the potential of free food depending on your employer. As a student you likely have a unique knowledge set. Consider tutoring or teaching those younger and less experienced than you. Outside of the traditional realm of employment are one-off jobs. This is anything in the realm of online surveys, paid medical experiments, and manual labor. Look through Craigslist for gigs in your area to see if you can pick up some extra cash. Donating plasma, blood, and semen are other ways to make extra money. Do you know someone who can do something or makes something you...

Article in English: One surefire way to make your cold drag on and on - for days or even weeks - is to continue with your normal routine and not give your body time to recuperate. The best way to get over a cold quickly is just to take a few days off, hold up somewhere warm and cozy, and give your body a break.  Even if you're reluctant to take time off work, just think of your co-workers - they don't want you spreading your germs around the office! You're doing them a favor by staying home. Aside from that, the common cold is a virus which attacks and weakens the immune system, making you more susceptible to contracting other illnesses or your cold becoming worse. Therefore, staying in your home environment is the safest option, at least until you start to feel well again. Try to remember that your body is doing its best to fight off the cold virus and it needs all the energy it can get in order to win. Over-exerting yourself with housework, exercise, traveling, or other physical activities will just prolong the cold and make you feel worse. Ensure that you are getting at least eight hours of sleep a night and take frequent naps during the day.  Even if you can't sleep, try curling up on the couch with a warm blanket and a hot drink, Use this time as an excuse to binge on multiple re-runs of Friends or read the entire Harry Potter series. When sleeping, try to prop your head up on an extra pillow. It may feel a little strange if you're not used to it, but the raised angle will aid in the draining of your nasal passages. If it really feels uncomfortable, try placing the extra pillow beneath the bottom sheet or under the mattress on your bed, for a less severe angle. What's the opposite of cold? Warmth! (Well, sort of). Even though cold weather or "catching a chill" doesn't actually cause a cold (the cold virus does), staying warm during the recovery process will help. So turn up the thermostat, light a roaring fire and pile on the blankets -- you'll feel much better soon.  Despite the benefits of heat, dry heat can actually...

Article in English: One thing you can do for someone with anxiety is let the person know that they can come to you. Reassuring your loved one that you won’t judge them no matter what they say or despite the anxiety can help give your friend some peace of mind. It will also help calm them.  Tell your friend that you won’t like them any less no matter what their anxiety is. Even if your friend tells you every time you are together that they fear something, you will still be there for them and still feel the same way. Let your friend know that they can call you whenever they need you. This can help provide some calm for your friend. You may even say, “Let me know if there is anything I can do for you.” Another way you can calm your friend with anxiety is to spend time with them. Don’t avoid your friend, ignore calls, or cancel plans without a good reason. Avoiding your friend may cause more anxiety since they may believe it is their fault that you are not spending time with them. Being around other people can help your friend a lot. When someone with anxiety spends quality time with other people, it helps to distract from the anxiety. This can help your friend feel calmer and less anxious. You should be patient with your friend if they have anxiety. Getting frustrated will increase your friend’s anxiety. Staying patient during an anxiety attack or when your friend expresses any fears can help calm any anxiety.  Remember that your friend suffers from a chemical imbalance and may rationally understand that any fears are unfounded. However, they are unable to control the anxiety, so getting frustrated because your friend can’t “get a grip” or think logically like you about something may worsen the anxiety. Forgive your friend if they say anything out of frustration or irritation. Because anxiety can cause a neurological change and sudden intense feelings, your friend may say something they do not mean. Let your friend know you understand and forgive them. You should never try to calm your friend with anxiety by giving them alcohol,...

Article in English: One thing you can do to help with your kidney stones is drink large amounts of water. This treatment method has not been proven effective, but increasing your fluid intake has other positive benefits as well. Try to drink way more water than you usually do a day, even if you drink the recommended amount. The recommended amount while you have kidney stones is two to three quarts (1.9 to 2.8 liters) a water a day. Have water on you at all times and continuously drink it. The more water you drink, the more diluted your urine will become.  This may help dissolve the salts in the kidney stone, which may help you pass the stone. This may also help prevent a urinary tract infection, which is common with kidney stones. Don't make yourself sick by drinking too much water at one time. The most common symptom of kidney stones is pain. To help with this, you can take over the counter pain relievers, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or acetaminophen (Tylenol), in small doses. NSAIDs include naproxen (Aleve), ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin), and aspirin. NSAIDs seem to cause fewer adverse reactions than opioid pain relievers, so you might consider trying these before asking your doctor for a prescription pain reliever.  Always follow the dosing and instructions on the label. The standard dosage for ibuprofen is 400 to 800 mg every six hours. Standard dosage for acetaminophen is 1000 mg every six hours. Standard dosage for Aleve is 220 to 440 mg every 12 hours. Use one of these medications as needed for moderate to severe pain. Be aware that two NSAIDS should never be taken together because this can reduce your kidney function. Your doctor may also prescribe you strong pain medication, such as opioids, or prescription antispasmodic medications, such as tamsulosin (Flomax), alfuzosin, nifedipine, doxazosin, and terazosin. In some cases, your doctor may prescribe you a water pill (diuretic). These will help break down deposits in your urine, which will help you pass your kidney stone even faster. This is most...

Article in English: One way to ensure you'll be memorable is to pick a date that you know will set you apart. Instead of going to dinner and a movie, pick something that will make you stand out compared to other dates you've been on.  Ask your date to an art show, or invite them to a painting class. Ask them to go to an arcade. If you're into music, invite your date to a record store to talk about music and your favorite bands. Make a picnic and spend time feeding ducks in the park. To be memorable, your date needs to get to know you, so make sure you are able to talk during your date. Choosing an activity instead of a sit down discussion will help ease awkward silences and give you something to talk about in a pinch since you can talk about what you're doing.  Try mini golf or bowling. Play pool. Go to a carnival or theme park. While you don’t want to plan out everything you’ll say, you’ll feel less nervous and will be able to converse easily if you have a go-to list of fun topics to discuss. You’ll also avoid spending too much time talking about topics like work or school.  Make a list of stories about you that people usually find interesting. Write down a list of interesting facts you know. List the five most interesting things that have happened to you. In addition to choosing clothes that make you look good, dress in a way that says something about you. The clothes you pick give you another chance to stand out and be memorable.  If you're a music buff, wear a T-shirt with your favorite band’s logo. Accessorize with your handmade jewelry. Choose a great pin-up dress if you're into vintage.

Article in English: One way to get a guy hooked on you is to demonstrate that other guys find you attractive too. This does not mean that you should flirt with other guys in front of him or try to make him jealous, but keep seeing other guys if he has not committed to you yet. If he complains about you dating other guys, just let him know that you would be happy to just see him if he wants to be in an exclusive relationship with you. But don't stop seeing other guys until it is clear that he is also going to stop seeing other girls. If you want him to stay in love with you, then you can't just let him worship you. You have to show that you care about who he is as a person too. After all, you want to be in love too, right? Here's how to show that you really care about him as a person:  As you get to know each other, ask him questions about his personal life. Talk to him about his childhood, his family, and his background. Take an interest in his work or studies. If he's really into science or history, talk to him about those subjects instead of brushing him off. Ask his opinion. Ask what he thinks about different subjects, from your newest outfit to world affairs. Show that his perspective really matters to you. Understand his moods. Learn to be extra supportive if he's having a bad day. You don't have to smother him with praise to let him know that he's truly special, but you should give him a sincere compliment now and then. You can compliment him in person, through texting, or by leaving a note at his desk or his locker. This will let him know that you're thinking about how great he is.  Try complimenting him for something he excels at. For example, you might say something like, "Dinner was delicious! You are such a good cook!" Or, "I really enjoyed your show last night. You are such a talented musician!"  Only compliment him when you really mean it. Don't give him false praise just because you think it'll make him like you more. If you want to keep the guy hooked, then you should not only let him know how unique he is to you,...

Article in English: One way to get relief from swollen veins is to put on compression stockings. These are tight-fitting stockings that put pressure on your legs to help push blood through your veins, reducing vessel diameter and improving blood flow. There are two types of compression stockings you can get without a doctor’s prescription, or you can get the strongest kind by talking to your doctor.  Follow manufacturer recommendations regarding when and how long to wear compression stockings. Make sure to check your skin condition underneath the stockings multiple times each day. Advanced age, diabetes, nerve damage, and other conditions can place an individual at greater risk for skin damage associated with prolonged pressure and skin infections. The stockings should be the appropriate size for the person using them and not too tight. Support pantyhose. These are merely tight stockings, which offer the least amount of pressure. They will provide pressure to your entire leg, not a particular part, but can be helpful if the swelling isn’t serious. Over-the-counter (OTC) gradient compression hose. These are sold in medical supply and drugstores, and will provide more targeted pressure. Look for products labelled “gradient” or “graduated.” By talking to a doctor, you can get prescription stockings. These are the stockings that give the most pressure to your legs. They can be targeted to different parts of your legs to make sure you get pressure where you need it most. Make sure you wear them as often as directed. If you do get a prescription, don’t stop wearing them without consulting your doctor. To get blood flowing out of your legs and back towards your heart, lie down and raise them above your heart. Elevate your legs at least 15 minutes, three to four times a day.:  Some good ways to elevate your legs include putting pillows under your legs while you lie in bed, lying on a couch with your legs elevated on pillows on a chair in front of you, or leaning back in a reclining chair that will elevate your legs above your heart.

Article in English: One way to identify triggers is to tune into when you feel anxious and what anxiety feels like for you. Begin to notice feelings of anxiety and identify them as soon as you can. You may not notice feelings or thoughts as related to anxiety right away, but your body can alert you through physical symptoms. Pay attention to any changes your body experiences, and begin to say to yourself, “This happens when I feel anxious.” Some common signs of anxiety include:  Pounding heart Sweating Stomach upset or nausea Urge to urinate Shortness of breath Muscle tension Headache Feeling tired suddenly Insomnia Begin tuning into your emotional experience of anxiety. Recognize when your thoughts and mood begin to change and how they change. You may feel irritable, restless, or jumpy. You also may have difficulty concentrating or feel like your mind is blank. Perhaps you feel dread or apprehension. Increasing your emotional awareness will help you identify when you feel anxious and help you uncover what causes your anxiety.  Start to link these feelings to your experience of anxiety and acknowledge when they occur. Say to yourself, “Right now I feel irritable, and this is related to feelings of anxiety.” If you don’t know how your anxiety feels or where it comes from, take a few days to observe yourself in and after anxious situations. You don’t have to do anything to change your anxiety, just observe what happens. You may recognize afterward that you felt anxious, and that’s okay. Start to recognize the feeling of anxiety. Observe when you feel anxious without judging it. Notice what feedback you receive most strongly, whether it be physical or emotional.   What made you realize you were anxious? How did you feel? What changed in your body or your mind that felt different? Observing yourself nonjudgmentally can help you increase your self-awareness.

Article in English: One way to make a knee length skirt look really classy is to wear a belt. This will draw attention away from the hemline and back to your waist.  Some people prefer to wear a wide belt with a knee-length skirt. You could try choosing a wide belt in an interesting color, like mustard. Other people prefer to wear thin belts with knee-length skirts, but there’s more material with a knee-length skirt, so a wider belt might be a better choice so the belt is more visible. With some pencil skirts, you will want to wear the belt a little bit higher to create sort of a vintage look. Remember that knee-length skirts are sort of a throwback style of the old classics. Remember that knee-length skirts can be pretty formal. They don’t have to be (if you wear, say, a cropped top), but they often are.  Go with the formal feel, and carry a vintage clutch. Play up the 40s and 50s feel of the skirt. You don’t want to carry too big of a purse with this look because, again, you want the skirt itself to make the statement. You could try carrying a clutch in a color that doesn’t match yet complements the skirt color. For example, if your skirt is black, you could carry a ruby-red clutch or a lime-green one. Keep other accessories simple. Maybe wear a brooch on your shirt (depending on the shirt). Maybe wear simple diamond earrings. But, again, you want to let the skirt draw the attention. Wear bracelets, necklaces, rings, scarves, hats, and fingerless gloves. It might seem counter-intuitive to wear boots with a knee-length skirt because that’s not going to show much of your legs. As long as you let a few inches of leg peek out, it will look good.  This look is very popular, especially in the winter, and it can look great. In fact, you can wear boots with a lot of different skirt lengths. Boots in leather or suede look great. You probably won’t want to wear knee-length boots with this look, though. Ankle boots look especially good with knee-length skirts.  However, people have tried to wear knee-length boots with knee-length skirts...

Article in English: One way to transport your fish is to put them in plastic bags. You can get plastic fish bags from a pet store. Fill the bag a third of the way full with water from the aquarium. Then, place one fish into each plastic bag. Don’t put multiple fish in the same bag.  Place a second bag over the first bag so that it is extra protected. This helps in case the bag leaks. Use a rubber band to secure the bags so the fish and water cannot get out. If you are going to have the fish in bags for longer than an hour, get some pure oxygen from your local pet store to place in the bags with them. A five-gallon bucket can be an easy way to transport multiple fish in the same container. Make sure you buy a new bucket and don’t use one that has had chemicals inside them. The bucket may have residual chemicals, which may kill or harm your fish. Make sure to cover the bucket with a water tight lid. Fill the bucket with water from your tank. Another way you can transport your fish is in a sturdy container that has a lid. Fill the container with water from the tank. Make sure the lid is secure so your fish doesn’t fall out and water doesn’t leak out. This may be good for fish with sharp fins or who may get out of a plastic bag. Small tanks can be moved with the fish and water in it. Large tanks should never be moved as a unit. If you move the aquarium with water and fish, make sure to remove all other objects. Take out all rocks, decorations, and filters. These may come loose and hurt your fish. You should also remove some of the water. This helps reduce the risk of spillage, along with giving your fish less room to be bounced around.  However, even small tanks can be difficult to move. They are very heavy, but also fragile. If you drop the tank and it breaks, you may lose all of your fish. Tanks that are moved with water in them are more likely to get chipped or cracked. If you have placed your fish in a bag or small containers, you should pack them in a secure carrier. Place bubble wrap between the fish bag and the container or...

Article in English: One week before the party is slated to start, go shopping for everything you need. If you aren’t able to drive, ask your dad or one of your mom’s friends to help you with the shopping trip.  Don’t forget to pick up things like cups, plates, napkins and utensils. You can hide these things somewhere in your room so your mom won't see. If you’re buying lots of food, don’t store it in your family refrigerator. Ask a friend or family member if you can store the perishable party supplies at their house so your mom won’t notice. In order to throw a good surprise party, you need to be good at deception. People are often able to tell when something is up, so your mom may start asking questions. In the event this happens, do not panic. Try to smooth over the situation.  Play dumb. If your mom asks if something is going on, say something like, "I don't know what you're talking about." Keep playing dumb and your mom's suspicion may pass. Try to distract your mom as you plan party events. If your mom has something else going on, she is less likely to notice you sneaking around. You can, for example, have your dad take your mom out to the movies when you need to start gathering decorations. Since this is a surprise party, you need a way to get your mom out of the house while you’re setting up and while guests are arriving. Ask one of your mom’s friends to invite her over on the day of the party.  Make sure the person hanging out with your mom knows to bring her to the party at a certain time. You could also try having your dad take your mom on a date. When they return, the party begins. If you’re holding the party at your home, you need the place to look nice. But cleaning the house for a surprise party can be tricky because you don’t want your mom to get suspicious.  Make sure your mom is out of the house before you start cleaning. Prioritize cleaning the bathrooms, living spaces and kitchen. These are the places where people are likely to congregate. While your mom is still out, hang all the decorations and set out the...

Article in English: Online storage is a growing field, allowing users to back up their data to remote servers. Incorporating online backups into your backup routine can help make sure your backups are redundant, and will allow you to access your backed up files from anywhere you have an internet connection. There are a variety of services, both free and paid, that offer a wide range of features:  BackBlaze - Offers unlimited storage for a small fee per month. Carbonite - One of the more established online backup services, Carbonite offers unlimited storage for a monthly fee. Carbonite is known for their automated backup solutions. SOS Online Backup - Another older player in the backup game, SOS offers unlimited storage for all accounts. Services like Google Drive, SkyDrive (OneDrive), and DropBox all offer online storage, but they require you to manually keep them updated. Files are synced between all devices running that account, which means that if the file is deleted on the backup server, it is deleted on all your connected devices! These services also do not offer robust file versioning, which means retrieving an older version of a file can be difficult or impossible. You can certainly use these services as a means of free storage, but they are not powerful enough to truly be called "backup services". You will have to maintain your backup manually. Any online backup service worth their salt should encrypt all files that are transmitted to and from their servers. They may have access to metadata, such as folder names and file sizes, but the actual content of your data should be unreadable to anyone but you. Many services use private keys to encrypt your data. This means that it is highly secure, but you will lose access to it if you forget your password. In cases such as this, passwords are irretrievable and the data is lost. Nearly all online backup solutions come with software or a browser interface that allows you to set what is being backed up and how often. Set a schedule that works for you. If you are frequently making...

Article in English: Only 1-2% of Parkinson's sufferers have genes that directly cause the development of the disease. Most people have “associated” genes, meaning that they are at a higher risk of developing Parkinson's, but will not necessarily have it even if they have the genetic predisposition for it. If associated genes are combined with other inherited genes or environmental factors, they can trigger the onset of Parkinson's. About 15-25% of people with the disease have relatives who suffered from it as well.  Age also increases your risk of developing Parkinson's. Whereas 1-2% of the general population suffers from the disease, 2-4% of the population over 60 years in age suffers from it. Be aware of your genetic risk factors and be able to provide them to your doctor. Parkinson's disease can be difficult to diagnose, especially in its early stages. However, early detection is very important for maintaining a good quality of life for as long as possible. If you observe more than one of the symptoms listed in the previous section and have a family history of Parkinson's, ask your internist or family physician to go over your symptoms with you. There is no standard diagnostic test for Parkinson's disease, though scientists are working to find a biological marker — like blood tests or an imaging scan — that can confirm a diagnosis. But because we don't have that test yet, the doctor will instead draw on his or her knowledge of how the disease manifests and combine it with observations of your ability to complete some simple tasks. The test will likely test for the symptoms that were listed in the previous section:  Animation of the facial muscles The presence of tremors when your limbs are resting Limb or neck stiffness Ability to stand up suddenly without dizziness Flexibility and muscle strength Ability to regain balance quickly Even if your family physician doesn't see any cause for concern, ask for a referral to a neurologist if you are still worried. A specialist will be more familiar with the signs of Parkinson's, and...

Article in English: Only after you've exhausted all other options should blocking collection call numbers be considered. Most phone companies offer "anonymous call rejection". If the calling party is not displaying caller id information for whatever reason, your phone will not ring. Instead the calling party will be confronted by a phone company system that will do one or more of the following:  Prompt the caller to release caller id information, Prompt the caller to leave a very short voice message which is subsequently played to you giving you a chance to accept or dump the call, or instruct the caller to call back revealing caller id information. This will weed out most collection calls. Numbers not on your approved list (WhiteList) will not reach your phone. Collection agencies often employ caller id spoofing, sending fake or alternate caller id information to trick you into answering. However, a WhiteList-Only home phone setup puts a swift end to this, because it won't accept non-recognized numbers. WhiteList-Only can be through your phone company for around $50USD with no monthly fees. Alternatively one can switch phone service from Land Line (conventional phone system) to VoIP (Voice over IP). This requires an internet connection and performs best on a broadband link; dialup internet is generally insufficient. There are a variety of home VoIP providers that allow WhiteList-Only setup for as little as $8 USD monthly. If one is adventurous, one can setup a home PBX using Asterisk, an open source software phone system usually requiring a dedicated computer. PBX in a Flash is one such flavor of Asterisk and is well suited to the above average computer user. Similar to WhiteList-only, sometimes also called GreenList-only, BlackList allows all calls except those explicitly blocked. Land Line phone service typically limits the customer to twenty blocked numbers whereas home VoIP providers or home PBX have no such limit. Additionally, these services often allow one to block all calls from toll free numbers: 800*, 866*, 877*, 888*.

Article in English: Only consider this if your hamster has come in contact with a toxic substance that can't be spot cleaned, and you can't bring it immediately to the vet. It is not uncommon for hamsters to die from being bathed, either by drowning or because they got sick after the bath. Some situations that might warrant a bath include:  It fell in something that was potentially dangerous or toxic such as neat disinfectant, white spirit, corrosive substances such as an acid, nail polisher remover The coat got covered in something that would be toxic or cause a stomach upset if the animal groomed and swallowed it (non-food substances such as those mentioned, or chocolate, jam, honey) The hamster was covered in something really sticky which could irritate the skin (chewing gum that could not be removed by spot cleaning or cutting fur) or that would cause a bowel obstruction if the hamster chewed it off the skin (blue tac, putty, wax) or a substance that would damage the skin such as urine If you absolutely must bathe your hamster as a last resort, get a bowl and fill it with a couple centimeters of lukewarm water. Moisten your hamster, taking care to keep the water away from her face. You can also use a cloth or an old toothbrush with soft bristles to gently clean the hamster. Again, make sure not to get water on or near the hamster's face. If water alone will not remove the toxic or sticky substance, you can use a very small amount of the mildest unscented pet shampoo you can find. Be very careful to keep the shampoo and water away from your hamster's face. If you used any shampoo, be sure to use plain lukewarm water to rinse the hamster off and completely remove any shampoo residue. Place your hamster on top of a dry towel and use the other end of the towel or a second towel to gently pat your pet dry.  If you rub, be sure to do so very gently in the direction of its fur. Make sure to get most of the water off before putting your hamster back in its cage to sleep off its agitation. Make sure your hamster has plenty of...

Article in English: Only metals containing iron will rust, and some iron alloys will rust slowly or not at all. Stainless steel, an alloy of iron and chromium, will be very difficult to rust. Cast iron or wrought iron will rust most easily. Hydrochloric acid is readily available in low concentrations at hardware stores, often labeled as muriatic acid. Handling it carefully, pour about 2 ounces (60 ml) into a sturdy plastic bottle. You should wear rubber gloves and safety glasses when doing this. Dissolving copper into the acid solution creates a wash that will speed the rusting process. The best way to dissolve copper in the acid is to wrap a short length of copper wire into a coil and submerge it in the acid for about a week.  When leaving the copper to soak, do not cap the bottle tightly. The gases produced during the chemical reaction will cause pressure to build inside the bottle. Also, make sure to clearly label the bottle and store it out of reach of children or pets. Copper coins can be used as well. Make sure the coin's content is largely copper; for instance, United States pennies made after 1982 are only 2.5 percent copper. However, pennies made before 1982 are 95 percent copper. After some of the copper has dissolved into the acid, put on protective gloves and carefully remove the copper from the solution. Once you have taken it out of the solution, you can discard it. Dilute the acid with water in a ratio of roughly 1 part acid to 50 parts water. If you used 2 ounces (60 ml) of hydrochloric acid, you should mix it with about a gallon (3.8 L) of water. The acid and copper solution will work best when the metal is very clean. There are commercially available products designed for cleaning scale or corrosion from metal, but a wash and rinse with soap and water will generally be sufficient. Apply a light layer of the solution to the metal and allow it to air dry. The acid can be applied with a spray bottle or paint brush, although the acid will quickly deteriorate any metal components of the spray bottle. Wear protective...

Article in English: Only one of the three Legendary Beasts will appear in each game, and which one it is will depend on the player's choice of a starter Pokemon. The Legendary Beast in your game will always be the type that is super effective against your starter, so if you chose Squirtle it will be Raikou, if you chose Bulbasaur it will be Entei, and if you chose Charmander it will be Suicune. Plan your party accordingly.  Raikou is an electric Pokemon, so ground types will be strongest against it, while water and flying types will be weak. Entei is a fire Pokemon, so water, ground, and rock types will be strongest against it, while grass, ice, bug, and steel types will be weak. Suicune is a water Pokemon, so grass and electric types will be strong against it, while fire, ground, and rock will be weak. You will need these to successfully catch a Legendary Beast. It will be difficult to catch, so pick up around 15 to be safe. The Legendary Beasts are skittish, and they will always attempt to flee rather than engaging in battle. The best strategy is to use a move like Curse, Mean Look, or Block.  Sleep or Freeze will also work, but since status effect moves like those are temporary, they’re not the best strategy. Alternatively, you can simply throw an Ultra Ball at it. Your chances are very small here, though, as the Legendary Beast will just probably escape the Pokeball and flee. Once you’ve found a way to keep the Legendary Beast from fleeing, the process of capturing it is the same as with any other Pokemon. Reduce its HP as much as you can without knocking it out, throw an Ultra Ball at it, and cross your fingers. Save frequently as you go, because if you accidentally knock out the Legendary Beast, you will not have another opportunity to catch it.

Article in English: Only purchase seafood that has been harvested in a sustainable manner, as overfishing practices threaten the long-term health of ocean ecosystems.  There are many seafood guides available online that identify sustainably caught fish, including Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch. Print out a pocket seafood guide or keep one on your phone to have a handy reference when shopping or ordering at restaurants.  Look for Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification on your favorite seafoods to see if they are sustainably caught or not. Fish farming practices harm the oceans’ ecosystems, introducing pollutants and diseases. Additionally, the farmed fish can escape into the ocean where they may create competition and threaten native species. Look for labels and packaging that identify the fish as “wild-caught.” ” The tiny plastic pellets found in these products wash down household drains and into bodies of water. They may carry pollutants, bacteria, and toxins that can kill fish. Use your purchasing power to support farmers who avoid or limit their use of pesticides.  Look for “organic” labels, shop at local farmers’ markets, and research particular farms and companies online. Consult internet guides about the “risk factors” for pesticides with different types of produce.

Article in English: Only the computer edition of Minecraft has command blocks. They are not yet available for Minecraft Pocket Edition or Minecraft for gaming consoles. Command blocks are in-game items that give access to the Minecraft console. They are powerful tools that let you reshape the whole game — but because of this, they are only available in certain circumstances:  On a multiplayer server, only the server operators can use command blocks. You'll need to ask an operator to promote you, or host your own server. In a single-player world, you'll need to enable cheats if they weren't enabled at world creation. Open the menu and click Open to LAN, check the "Allow Cheats" box, and click Start LAN world. This will only last one play session, but you can repeat it each time you want to add more command blocks. Now that you have console access, you can switch to creative mode. This is the only mode that lets you place and program command blocks. Use the following command to accomplish this:  Hit T to open the console (the chat bar), or press / to open it and automatically enter / to the line you are typing. Type /gamemode c and hit Enter to enter creative mode. Once you're done setting up command blocks, type /gamemode s for survival mode or /gamemode a for adventure mode. Open the console again with T and type this command: /give (yourusername) minecraft:command_block 64 . Instead of (yourusername), type in your full Minecraft username, without parentheses.  Your username is case sensitive. If nothing happens, you may need to update minecraft to at least version 1.4. Update to the latest version to get access to all commands. You can replace the "64" with any number to receive that many blocks. 64 makes a full stack of command blocks.

Article in English: Open the cylinder and remove any cartridges that are still inside.  Point the gun in a safe direction and cup your left hand around the gun, keeping your fingers clear and away from the muzzle. Push or pull the cylinder release latch on the left side of the gun with your right thumb. Swing the cylinder out to the side of the gun. Slip the middle and ring finger of your left hand through the open frame. Turn the gun so that the muzzle faces up. Close your left thumb and fingers around the cylinder. Strike the ejector rod with the base of your palm one time. That should loosen the ammo sufficiently. Allow gravity to take over and drop the cartridges from inside the cylinder. Check all compartments of the cylinder to verify that the gun is unloaded. Slide the dowel rod into the barrel of the gun until it touches the face or front of the cartridge cylinder.  Use a dowel rod that with a diameter that is smaller than the diameter of the revolver barrel. Do not force the dowel rod into the barrel since doing so can potentially cause damage to the gun. The front face of the cylinder rests just behind the frame of the gun and is the actual start of the barrel. Note that the cylinder is not included in the length of the barrel. When you are unable to push the dowel rod any further into the barrel, it has reached the face of the cartridge cylinder. Once the dowel rod is as deep as it will go, draw a line on the side of the dowel rod at the point where the dowel rod first extends out of the muzzle of the barrel.  Use a pen, pencil, or marker to draw this line. Make the line as close to the muzzle as possible. Lie the gun down flat on your working surface as you do this. Carefully slide the dowel rod out of the gun barrel. Lay the gun aside and place the dowel on a flat working surface. When setting the gun aside, make sure that the muzzle points away from you and away from anyone else. Even though you already unloaded the gun, you should always treat a firearm as though it is loaded. Use a measuring stick or measuring...

Article in English: Open the water cap on your iron by popping the top or twisting it counterclockwise until it’s all the way off. Take your iron to a sink and turn it over to empty out any water in the tank. Water is bad for wood and can cause it to rot, so you need to get all of the moisture out of your iron before you start.  If you can access the inside of the tank, wipe it down with a dry paper towel or cloth before reassembling it and putting it back into your iron. The sooner you can do this after the wood has been stained, the easier it will be to remove the stain. This method should be fine for any kind of wood. You can use a hair dryer instead if you don’t have an iron, but it will take much longer. Lay an iron on the base and stand the plate up. Turn the dial on the iron to low and plug it in. Wait 5-10 minutes to let it preheat. You can use a shirt, cloth, towel, or rag. The thickness of the cotton will determine how long it takes to iron the stain out, but as long as it’s made of cotton, it doesn’t necessarily matter in terms of how effective it is. Once your iron is preheated, lay the plate flat on your cotton over the stained area. Begin to slowly move the iron around the stain in a circular pattern. Make sure that you iron at least 4–8 in (10–20 cm) around the stain in every direction. Iron for 3-4 minutes. Don’t let the iron just sit on one spot for more than 20-30 seconds or you’ll risk burning or warping the wood. Grab the cotton by an unheated edge to avoid burning your hand. Pull the cotton up and inspect the stain to see if it is still there. If the stain is completely gone, you’re done. Use the same piece of cotton and the same iron on the same temperature to continue ironing the stain. Iron for another 4-6 minutes and repeat the process until the stain is gone. This process could take up to 30 minutes depending on how old the stain is.

Article in English: Open up the paper clip so that one end is straight. The paper clip can now be used to scrape out debris. However, the metal can still scratch the inside of the jack.  A toothpick can also be used, but the pointed ends can also scratch the jack's interior.  Needles are useful for reaching lint and large debris, but can easily scratch the jack and should be used as a last resort. Use standard office tape (like Scotch or Sellotape). Tightly wrap the tape sticky side up around the straightened end of the paperclip. Before use, check to see that the tape is secure and won't come off. Slowly move the tape into position. Don't jam it in there. Reach for any debris you see. The tape forms a lint roller and will remove stuck debris and lint.

Article in English: Our bodies need to program down, in a sense. The rush of the day has us into human-sized Energizer bunnies and we can't just go from 60 to 0 in a heartbeat. Your routine should be whatever appeals to you, but it should be daily (to serve as a cue to your body) and take at least 15 minutes. The routine can consist of showering, drinking warm milk, listening to classical music, or doing relaxing exercises such as yoga or Pilates. If you read, make sure to read without any bright lights (more on that later). Designate your bedroom for sleeping only. Refrain from any strenuous activities right before, as this will inhibit comfortable sleep time. Bright lights can suppress the hormone melatonin, which can lead to sleeplessness and suppress the "tired" feeling. Try to turn off TV screens, laptop monitors and the like an hour before you want to go to sleep. The science behind it is that all these bright lights are messing with our body's internal clocks. When you're sitting in front of a computer, TV, and phone until 2 AM, your body has zero ideas as to what's going on; it could be 2 AM or 2 PM for all it knows. Turning off the lights lets your body realize, "Ahh, it's bedtime. Shutting down!" . It's a simple truth, but that doesn't mean it's any less important: sleeping enough will help you wake up earlier. What are yours? It's easier to wake up early if you've have the recommended amount of sleep during the night. Plan on getting:  7 to 9 hours of sleep for men.  8 to 9 hours of sleep for women.  9 to 10 hours of sleep for pregnant women.  10 to 12 hours of sleep for children and the elderly. Sleeping with the curtains half-open could help your body to stop producing melatonin while simultaneously ramping up production of adrenaline. This could help your body be ready to embrace the day by the time your alarm clock goes off.  You know how we just said light keeps you awake? Well, if you're asleep it awakens you. Crazy stuff, huh? The natural sunlight will be perceived by your body, even when you're asleep....

Article in English: Over the winter, do a thorough inspection of the outside of your house to look for potential wasp entry points, such as loose siding, unsealed vents and cracks around windows and door frames. These are all ideal locations for a wasp's nest, so sealing them off now could prevent a potential infestation come spring. Although wasps will never return to a previously used nest, several species of wasp will build their new nest on top of the old one. Therefore it is a good idea to knock down any empty, abandoned nests over the winter and thoroughly clean the area before the queen wasp reclaims the area come springtime. The scent of old food can attract wasps, so it's a good idea to make sure your garbage cans are well sealed. You should also give any garbage cans a good clean with water and disinfectant on a semi-regular basis, to remove any food residue that could attract wasps. Fruit trees, and particularly rotting, fallen fruit is a magnet for wasps and bees, so think twice before planting one too close to your house. If you already have fruit trees, it's a good idea to regularly harvest ripe fruit and to pick any fallen fruit off the ground and dispose of it before the wasps can get to it. Wasps are extremely territorial and will not build their nest close to another colony's. Therefore, hanging a fake wasps' nest or two is a great way to deter them. You can purchase fake nests at gardening centers and hardware stores (many of which are beautifully designed), but you can have just as much success by hanging a brown paper bag!

The water repellent coating has worn off and you start getting wet from your sweat inside. Increased weight of the jacket or trouser. Follow the following to reproof your waterproof jackets and trousers:  Once wash your jackets and trousers to get rid of all stains and dirt. Spray a waterproofing agent on to it while ensuring a proper spread on the whole jacket.(spray from a distance to increase spread area) Some sprays work best on dampened jackets and trousers so spray them while they are still wet. Now tumble dry it at a medium heat (for best results use the temperature mentioned on the bottle of spray) set to activate waterproofing. If you don't have a spray then use the normal tech cleaner, such as Granger's 30'c wash as we did while washing. For trousers instead of simple drying, use the tumble drying to reproof it.

Article in English: Over-the-counter painkillers such as Ibuprofen, paracetamol, or aspirin can be used to relieve pain and swelling. All of these medications work by inhibiting the production of chemicals called prostaglandins, which cause inflammation. The recommended dosage for each of these drugs is as follows:  Ibuprofen (or similar generic drug), 200 – 400 mg tablets, with or just after food, up to three times a day Aspirin, 300 mg tablets up to four times a day Paracetamol, 500 mg tablets up to three times a day Do not mix these medications. Overdose can lead to serious side-effects. Until professional medical assistance is obtained, lying on your back and supporting the testes in whatever way feels comfortable can help to relieve physical stress and discomfort. You can also enhance your scrotal support, such as a jock strap. This can aid in relieving testicular pain by protecting the region against contact friction between your legs, painful movement of the scrotum, and external contact that can lead to irritation. In case there is a sudden onset of swelling and pain, gently apply an ice pack or a bag of frozen vegetables to your testicles to help relieve pain and swelling.  Applying an ice-pack is an important measure since, if the cause of the swelling is serious, it can increase the amount of time the testicles can survive without a blood supply.  Wrap the frozen ice or bag of vegetables in a dry cloth before applying to protect from frostbite. Allow time for the testicles to naturally heal by avoiding activities that could aggravate the pain and swelling. Avoid heavy lifting, running and other vigorous exercises. If total rest is not possible, then wearing supportive undergarments and/or a truss can be beneficial.

Article in English: Oxidation filters are generally stronger than water softeners and can remove harmful chemicals that are common to well water, specifically arsenic. If your well needs to be treated for arsenic and iron traces, choose an oxidation system to filter your water.  Oxidation filters can also get rid of "rotten egg" odors and flavors in water caused by hydrogen sulfide (sulfur). If you have not tested your well water for arsenic traces, it is recommended for all well owners to do so. High arsenic levels are common in private wells. Research local companies that sell filtration systems and compare their prices for well or home filters. Choose the price that best fits your need and contact the company to install it. If you would prefer to install an oxidation filter yourself, find a product online or at a home supply store that is marked as easily-installable. If you buy an oxidation filter online, you may be able to call a plumber to help with installation. Some oxidation filters require the usage of chlorine, a hazardous chemical. Read the filter's maintenance instructions carefully to avoid adding too much chlorine to your drinking water Never touch chlorine with your bare hands, and keep it out of reach from children or pets. Oxidation filters that use chlorine are better at disinfecting water than filters without chlorine. Send another water sample to a laboratory after installing your oxidation filter and compare its results to the well water's initial lab reading. If your oxidation filter does not seem to be filtering out all harmful minerals, you may need to try a different water purifying option. Clean your oxidation filter regularly according to the product instructions to keep it in the best possible condition. If you are concerned about its functioning at any time, send a water sample to a nearby laboratory to make sure it is functioning well.

Article in English: Oxygen hoses will have a green cover, while acetylene hoses will have a red cover. Never interchange these hoses as they are meant for different substances. If one of your hoses have broken, replace it—don’t use tape of any sort to try and patch the hole. A hose with a natural rubber liner is okay for acetylene service. All the connections from the gas supplies to the torch are metal-to-metal, and they don’t require lubricants or sealants. Similarly, don’t use any pipe-fitting tools to connect the hoses to the torch. Don’t force connections—if the threads don’t run together easily by hand, either the threads are damaged or the parts aren’t meant to go together. The torch should have identifying marks on the body or the handle showing where the hose should be connected. Most torches have 2 oxygen connections because 1 is used for the cutting jet and 1 is used for the preheat flames. If there isn’t an adaptor on the torch that unites these 2 connections, you will need to use 2 oxygen hoses, 2 regulators, and 2 oxygen tanks. Most new oxy acetylene torches come with built in adapters, but double-check with the manufacturer’s instructions to be safe. Sometimes the torch doesn’t specify which connection is for the acetylene, though the oxygen will be clearly marked. Whichever connection is not for the oxygen is for the acetylene. Double check your connections before moving on to make sure everything is hooked up to the right place. Don’t trust your hand strength to tighten these connections for you. Use a non-adjustable wrench to securely fasten both the oxygen and acetylene hoses to the torch. Having tight connections is extremely important because they will keep both the oxygen and acetylene from leaking.

Article in English: Packets of dehydrated brine shrimp cysts are sold at aquarium and pet stores. Beginning with one packet is fine, since the brine shrimp will multiply rapidly. If your tank is the correct temperature and salinity for the shrimp, they will hatch within a day. 12 hours after that, you will have young shrimp swimming around in the tank. Brine shrimp will multiply quickly. They will begin as tiny cysts and end up as small shrimp. You do not need to aid them in hatching or growing, since they will do so naturally in a well-maintained tank.  If your brine shrimp are not growing or hatching, check the salinity and temperature of the tank for problems. It is natural for some of the brine shrimp to die.

Article in English: Paint and finish stripping chemicals are highly toxic, so it's essential to set up a well-ventilated work area. Choose your garage, a work shed, or a spot outdoors.  Avoid setting up your work area in one of the main rooms of your house. Basements are not well-ventilated enough, either. Unfold the drop cloth over a large surface area and lay out the paint stripper, brushes for applying the stripper, and the scraping tools you need to remove it. Put on your ventilator (if indoors), gloves, apron and goggles. Dip the brush into the paint stripper and begin applying it to the furniture. If the piece you are refinishing is large, plan to strip the paint in sections, rather than all at once. The stripper bonds with the paint as you apply it, separating it from the wood. Use the steel wool and other scraping tools to scrape off the paint with the stripper. It should come off in large sheets.  Give the same amount of care to each part of the furniture. The stripping process affects the look of the wood underneath, so you want to make sure each part gets the same treatment to avoid an uneven finish. If the furniture has multiple coats of paint, you may need to repeat the paint-stripping process more than once. Once the paint is gone, the finish underneath also needs to be removed. Use a paintbrush to apply the thinner finish-stripping solution, then sand it away using a clean piece of steel wool. All the furniture to dry completely.  Now that the wood has been revealed, be sure to scrub along the grain, rather than against it, so the wood doesn't get damaged. If most of the old finish seems to have come off with the paint stripper, you still need to give the furniture a stripper rinse to make sure all traces of the old finish are gone. Rinse the furniture with denatured alcohol or mineral spirits, then let it dry. Use a sanding machine or 100-grit sandpaper to thoroughly sand the furniture. Work in even strokes and spend the same amount of time on each part of the furniture to ensure an even finish. Use a finishing...

Article in English: Pairing food with a beer that shares some of its flavor or aroma is a great place to start. Seek out beers and foods with similar elements of aroma and flavor profiles. Foods such as aged Gouda, walnut cake, roasted pork, smoked sausage and cashew chicken will complement the malty flavor of a brown ale. The coffee and chocolate flavors of a stout highlight silky, salty foods such as oysters on the half shell. A stout also pairs well with braised or caramelized meats and sauces. Coriander found in dishes like fajitas or tacos complements the herbaceous flavor of hops in an IPA. Likewise, many IPAs have tropical notes that can be accentuated with fruits like mangos.

Article in English: Pant guards are tied around both calves and around both thighs, right above the knees. You’ll need four shirts. You could also use scarves instead of t-shirts, if you have those on hand. Red and black are ideal, but white would work, too. The collar should be pointing toward your navel at an angle. Tuck in the seam of the collar to get rid of the awkward lines. Tuck any loose material so that the band is 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) wide. Your thigh is not in the t-shirt. The t-shirt is simply draped over it. Tie off the sleeves in the back of your leg. Fold the knots under. Tuck any loose material so that the  band is 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) wide. Then, tie off the bottom ends of the shirt behind your leg. Make sure you tuck loose ends or knots. Do this to both legs. Wrap a t-shirt around the middle of one of your calves. Tie the sleeves in the back, just like you did with the thigh guards. Fold the knots under the fabric. Do the same thing for your other calf. You could make throwing stars or a ninja sword out of cardboard, or buy plastic ones from a costume shop and carry those. If you have nun-chucks, carry those with you. If nothing else, ninjas used long wooden staffs as weapons, so you could try using the long handle of a broom or find a tree branch outside that resembles a staff. Take a piece of cardboard, and cut it to the shape of the weapon. Use duct tape, to create a sliver shine. On the end, take black tape, or cloth for the handle.

Article in English: Paprika is a reddish spice that can enhance red tones or add red highlights to hair.   Make a tea from rose hips. Brew rose hips in boiling water. Let the tea cool. Make a paste using the tea and paprika and apply it to hair. You might find it helpful to use an applicator brush. You can find these at beauty supply stores. Leave the paste on hair for at least 30 minutes then rinse. This method is simple but may require multiple applications for enhanced results.   Mix beet and carrot juice together in equal parts. Apply the mixture through the hair and work it through. Leave the mixture on for at least 60 minutes before rinsing. This method works best to enhance color in red hair. In blondes, the results tend to turn out a bright strawberry blonde. You can do this method by making a strong herbal tea from dried rose hips.   Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of rose hips. Let the mixture steep until the water turns a deep red color. Cool the mixture and then strain it. Massage into hair and then let it sit 20 minutes before rinsing. Repeat as necessary.

Article in English: Parakeets are very sociable, and if you become part of their flock, you will have a more loving friend. To do this, simply spend lots of time with your bird from a young age, and he or she will become accustomed to your hands. This will help prevent your parakeet from biting you in the first place. If a parakeet associates your hand with something positive—like food—it will be less scared and therefore less likely to bite you. Not only can this help keep the bird from biting you, it will help them become friendlier in general. If the parakeet feels threatened by your hand, you may have trouble feeding it from your hand. In this case, try using a spoon at first and gradually choking up on the handle, then placing the spoon head in your fingers, then palm, etc. until you can discontinue using the spoon and encourage the bird to eat from your hand. Feeding your parakeet from your hand is one way to develop a bond, but you can also use food and treats to reward the bird for good behavior. For example, if you successfully got the parakeet onto your hand or even out of the cage for the first time (see parts below) you can use treats or food to reward the bird for that behavior. When the bird understands the reward system, it will learn to do what you want it to do in exchange for the food or treat. Parakeets may bite out of fear or jealousy, because they are tired, due to unintended reinforcement of biting behavior, in anticipation of being placed back in the cage when they do not want to be, or to protect their territory. You will be more successful at bonding with your parakeet and reducing biting behavior if you know why your bird bites. Armed with this information, you may tailor your approach to helping put a stop to biting more specifically.

Article in English: Parenting Magazine suggests you can do this with books, such as "Germs are not for Sharing" or "Germ Stories." You can also do a miniature science experiment where you show your child or classroom videos or microscope slides of typical bacteria found on the hands.  You can find some videos on You tube. You can also visit the themayoclinic.com or cleaninginstitute.org to discover what hygiene recommendations are currently being made. They may have changed since you were a child, since the discovery of other bacteria. To actively demonstrate how we transfer germs, try the chalk experiment with your children. Have a box of chalk powder ready. Dip your hand in it. Shake hands with one child and ask the child to shake hands with other children. All of them have chalk powder on their hands, having come just from the initial dip! Explain saying that germs also spread in similar manner. This visual explanation may do more than any words to help you show the problem to your children. You should wet your hands, apply soap, lather the soap, rub your hands for at least 20 seconds, rinse them and dry them. You can use your bathroom or a large school bathroom to do this activity. Teach children a 20 to 30 second song to sing to themselves while they wash their hands. A song such as "Happy Birthday" or "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star," can help them to scrub their hands clean for the allotted time. Sing with them the first few times. Discuss daily bathing in connection with hand washing. Enumerate all the places germs like to hide and how best to clean them with soap and water. You can either tell the students where and how to wash, or you can adopt the Socratic method. You can ask students where they think germs may grow and how best to get rid of them. Encouraging casual conversation about hygiene will usually create a more comfortable environment. The best way to do this is to ask a dentist to personally come and talk to your class about dental hygiene. You should hand out toothbrushes, toothpaste and dye tablets.  You can...

Article in English: Parsley plants do not go to seed during their first year. If you plan on harvesting the seeds, you will need to monitor a plant already in its second year.  Parsley plants are biennial. Typically, the plants will only live for two years, and at the end of their lives, they will flower and seed. To maximize your seed harvest, it is recommended that you remove imperfect or weak two-year-old plants at the end of the first season. In doing so, you ensure that the healthiest plants can fertilize each other and produce good seed. When harvesting and storing seeds, try to separate those that were ready for harvest early from those that were ready later in the season. The seeds from early seed producers should be given priority over those that came from plants that produced seed late. To harvest entire seed heads, wait until the majority of the seeds have turned dark brown. If you harvest the seeds any earlier, they may not germinate well later on. Parsley seed goes through three basic stages. Immediately after it finishes flowering, the seed will emerge as a light or bright green color. It will eventually take on a tan tint during the second stage, and during the final stage, it will be brown or otherwise dark in color. Snip off the seeds by cutting directly below the seed head. Pinch the stem just below the seed head with your thumb and index finger. Cut the stem just below your fingers. Remove the seed heads carefully, shaking them as little as possible as you work. If you shake the seeds while clipping them off, you could end up scattering the seeds. Since the seeds are fairly small, seeds that are scattered will likely end up lost. Gently shake the seed heads into a paper bag to quickly and easily remove the majority of the mature seeds.  You could also lightly shake or tug on the seeds over a tightly woven patch of fabric or plastic sheeting. Shake or remove the seeds using a gentle motion. If you apply too much force, the seeds can fly off and scatter in all directions. If a few young seeds still remain stuck...

Article in English: Part of becoming a legend is in the mind. Legends are confident, cool, and have a certain “I don't care what you think” attitude. This doesn't mean that they are self-absorbed or arrogant. But it does mean that they believe in their calling.   Don't fear social judgement for your calling or your convictions. Does your family think you're weird because you want to work with Doctors without Borders in India? What's more important, their opinion or helping people in India? Remember that some of the biggest legends of all time did unconventional things. Many people refused to believe Albert Einstein's ideas about space and time. The Buddha meanwhile gave up all his wealth and goods to find enlightenment. Try to put others first in your life. Be generous, be thoughtful, and live out your calling for them. The more you impact people's lives, the more likely you are to be remembered by them and become a legend.  If you're a doctor, for example, you can live for others by cultivating a great bedside manner and by expressing empathy with patients. A lawyer might become legendary because she choose to work as a court-appointed defense attorney and serve the underprivileged. Teachers become legendary by the time and effort they take to ensure students' learning and personal growth. You can even do this at home. Whether it's reading to a little sibling, working hard to support the family, or caring for elderly relatives, you will be living for others and remembered. Whatever your calling is, give freely of it. Share your talent, your advice, your time, or your knowledge. People will be more likely to remember you because you'll have made a difference in others' lives.  Tell jokes freely if you're a comedian and bring joy to others. Give a charity concert if you are a musician. If you're a scientist, give public lectures about your work. Do you have a spiritual vocation? Be open to helping people who ask for your guidance. If you've decided to go for fame and fortune, become a philanthropist. Make charitable donations and...

Article in English: Part of coming out of your shell is making people want to talk to you. You may be surprised to hear that people might think that you're stuck up or rude just because you're so shy that you can't even begin to think about giving people positive affirmation. This can change today. The next time someone comes up to you or starts talking to you, give that person a big smile, stand with your posture straight and your arms at your sides, and enthusiastically ask that person how he or she is doing. It takes practice to start looking friendly when you're used to retreating into your shell, but you can make it work.  If you're shy, you may be used to hunching over a book or your cell phone, but this may make people think you're too busy to talk to them. You can be approachable and look engaged even if you're shy. Even if you're not saying a lot, nodding, making eye contact, smiling at the right times, and generally looking like you're enjoying yourself are all signs of being an “active listener.” Active listening helps people feel like you’re interested and involved in the conversation. If you just hang back and stare at the floor, people might forget that you're there. Try repeating a few key ideas from a conversation as the basis for your own contribution. This not only shows you’re listening, it helps other people feel acknowledged. For example, if you’ve been listening to someone talk about her trip to India, you could say something like “That sounds amazing! I’ve never been to India, but I did go to Indiana once.” If talking about yourself seems too hard at the moment, this can be a tactic you can use until you comfortable sharing yourself a little more. Once you're having a conversation with people, a great default mode is to ask them a few simple questions, whether it's about themselves, their plans, or whatever it is that they are talking about. Asking questions is also a lower-pressure form of social interaction because you won't be talking about yourself as much, but will be showing interest and will move...

Article in English: Part of making yourself a comfortable and dynamic public speaker is to make sure you know what you're talking about and you know it well. Lacking knowledge can make you anxious and uncertain when you're speaking and that will come through to your audience.  Preparation is key. Take your time when you are planning your speech to make sure that it flows naturally and logically. You'll also need to make sure that you know how you're coming across while giving the speech and heighten your good qualities while downplaying the less good qualities. Even if public speaking is something like having to answer a question in class, you will still need to make sure that you know your subject. This can help you feel and present as more confident, which will make a good impression on your listeners. While speaking in public isn't like running a race, there are still things you can do to make sure that your body cooperates with you. This goes beyond not shifting your weight from foot to foot while you're talking (hold your toes still and you won't find yourself doing this). It has to do with breathing, with projecting and making sure you're speaking properly.  Speak from your diaphragm. This will help you to project clearly and loudly so that your audience can hear you without seeming like you're straining or shouting. As an exercise, stand up straight and put your hand on your abdomen. Breathe in, and breathe out. Count to 5 on a breath and then 10 on a breath. You'll feel your abdomen start to relax. You want to be breathing and speaking from that relaxed state. Modulate your tone. Figure out what the pitch of your voice is. Too high? Too low? Going into registers only dogs can hear? Relaxing, standing in a comfortable (but upright) position and breathing properly will help you find a more comfortable and more pleasant tone. Avoid throat breathing and upper chest breathing, as these both can add to your anxiety and tighten up your throat. In consequence, your voice will sound more strained and uncomfortable. Chewing gum...
