Article in English: Anxiety can build up as a result of too much stress in your daily life. Adequate problem-solving and stress-management is required to help you overcome these stressors and minimize feelings of anxiety. With people who have a natural tendency towards anxiety, the need is strong to try to control the environment even when that is not possible. Focus on what you can control. Grab a notepad and write down all the things that are worrying you at the moment. Brainstorm a few strategies on how you can fix the issues or prepare for them more appropriately. For example, if you are worried about an upcoming speech, you can make a plan to practice the speech nightly and, at some point, deliver it in front of a mock audience. People with anxiety often increase their feelings of worry with unhelpful or irrational thought patterns. Perhaps you are worried about your sibling who is traveling across country. You may develop intense, anxious feelings if you miss hearing from your sister or brother even by a few minutes. It may be helpful to challenge your worries with realism. For instance, in the above scenario, you may have started to tell yourself "something is wrong with my sister" or "she's been hurt". You can easily challenge this premise by looking up news reports that relate to her travel route. If you have heard no reports of a car accident, then you can make a more accurate statement like "she has been delayed in calling me for some reason" or "maybe she is having trouble accessing her phone". If you suffer from an extreme form of anxiety such as regular panic attacks, your body goes into "flight or fight" mode even when you may not be in danger. People who experience panic attacks may feel as though their lives are being threatened and a feeling of doom may come over them. Rational thinking can also help with such scenarios. Look around at your immediate surroundings. Are you being threatened in some way? If not, repeat this phrase over and over again until you begin to feel calm: "I am not in danger. I am safe."...

Article in English: Anxiety felt at school can stem from a variety of factors, including problems at home, high expectations to achieve, relationship or friendship issues, or trouble concentrating or focusing in the classroom environment. Students with panic disorder can easily fall behind other students because they may have to leave the classroom environment or miss school more than other students.  You should make an extra effort to keep your parents and teachers in the loop of what's going on with you. If you feel like your workload is too stressful or unreasonable, think about dropping a course or an extracurricular activity. If your parents often pressure you to be high-achieving, speak with your school counselor about some ways you may discuss this issue with them. She may be able to help you find ways to talk to your parents and feel less pressure about their expectations of you. Bullying can negatively affect those who are bullied, those who bully, and those who witness bullying. Kids who are bullied may experience symptoms of depression and anxiety, which means that instances of bullying could be the source of your panic at school. Take a stand against bullies at school by:  Raise your chin and make eye contact with the student who is bullying you. Tell the student in a calm, even voice to leave you alone. You can also choose to ignore the bully. If speaking up for yourself or ignoring the bully does not work, don't keep bullying to yourself. Tell someone as soon as possible. Tell a teacher, parent, older sibling, or school counselor about what is going on. You may also want to avoid the places at school where bullies gather. The older you get, the more responsibilities you have in both school and at home. If you are not managing your time well, you could be putting yourself at risk for even greater anxiety. Here are some tips for better time management:  Break bigger projects down into smaller tasks, like dividing a book report down to reading the book, then reviewing the book and taking notes, then writing an...

Article in English: Any case of severe itching that lasts weeks or months could result from scabies. Signs of scabies include:  Intense itching, especially at night.  Small red bumps (they may be pimple-like) appear on the skin like a rash. The rash can be on the whole body or limited to certain areas. Common places include the wrist, armpit, elbow between fingers, genital area, waist, and beltline. The rash can also have small blisters.  Small burrow lines between the bumps. They are typically light gray and slightly raised.  Norwegian scabies, or "crusted scabies," is a particularly severe form. Signs of crusted scabies include thick crusts on the skin that crumble easily and may appear greyish. They contain hundreds of thousands of mites and eggs. Crusted scabies is rare and typically seen in patients with suppressed immune systems Be particularly vigilant of these symptoms if you have been in contact with anyone infected with scabies. It is important that you visit your doctor. Over-the-counter and home remedies will not treat the infestation completely.  The doctor will usually only need to see the rash to diagnose the condition. He might also take a sample by scraping under the bumps and looking for the presence of mites, eggs, and feces under the microscope. Be sure to tell your doctor if you are pregnant or have any problems such as serious illness, or other severe skin diseases. If your itching is severe, you may want to treat it on your own while waiting for your doctor's appointment or prescription. Soaking in cold water or applying calamine lotion may provide relief from itching. You can also use over-the-counter oral antihistamines, such as cetirizine (Zyrtec), diphenhydramine hydrochloride (Benadryl). Once diagnosed, your doctor will usually prescribe a mite-killing cream or lotion containing five percent Permethrin. Always follow your doctor's and pharmacist's instructions exactly when using the cream.  Permethrin is topically applied and has a few side effects such as burning/stinging and itching.  Permethrin...

Article in English: Any designated cross country skiing area should have smooth, groomed trails, often with two tracks to slot your skis into. This is the best way to learn cross country skiing. Skiing off the trails, or "back country" skiing, requires significantly more effort, and is only recommended once you are comfortable on the trails, and have a heavy-duty pair of skis. If you are not at a prepared skiing area, pick a flat area of powdery snow with no obstacles. Stand on flat ground with your skis parallel to each other. Bend forward at the ankles, and slightly at your knees. Keep your torso straight, not bending at the hips. This position helps keep you balanced, with your weight over your feet. Scoot one ski at a time slightly forward, getting a feel for the amount of force you can apply without losing your balance or bending above the hips. It takes significant leg strength to turn this shuffling motion into the "kick and glide" motion described below. Many recreational skiers prefer to only use this shuffling technique of moving forward. Every skier falls, so learn the correct way to get up early on in your practice. Set the poles aside after a fall. Adjust your skis so they are parallel to each other, rolling onto your back if necessary to get them untangled. Place the skis onto the snow, to one side of your body, and crawl forward until your feet are behind you. Kneel on top of the skis, and use your poles to push yourself up. If you fall on a hillside, raise your skis in the air and bring them down on the slope below you to get in a more stable position. Crawl to a flat area before you stand up. Keep the skis to one side as you crawl, not directly beneath you, or your weight could push them down the hill. Leave your ski poles aside for the moment, so you can practice this new motion without relying on your arm strength. Push your right foot down into the snow to get moving, swinging your right arm forward and your left arm back. Immediately shift your weight over your left ski and raise your right ski slightly...

Article in English: Any health and wellness policy needs to involve anti-bullying protocols. Make sure this is covered and supported by the management and is taken seriously at all levels of the business. Pair this with an open door policy and hold frequent orientation meetings regarding workplace bullying, making sure employees at all levels are on the look out for this behavior. It's easy to sit back and hope for the best, thinking that your employees will be able to work it out among themselves. It won't. Don't let a problem fester among your employees if you want a productive, healthy, and effective work environment.  Investigate all complaints seriously and fully. Even if complaints seem to come from overly sensitive employees and turn out to be the result of simple misunderstandings, they're worthy of your attention. Often bullying evolves from a sense of competition in the workplace, leading employees who feel threatened by the skills of other employees to attempt to bring them down or sabotage their efforts by engaging in psychological warfare. It's a dangerous and problematic workplace dynamic to let fester. Workplace competition is based on the belief that employees want to be the best and will work harder when rewarded for successes. While it's true that competition in some business models can increase productivity, it also increases the turnover of employees and can create a hostile and unwelcoming environment. The more involved your workforce is at all levels with itself, the less likely the lowest-level workers are to take matters into their own hands. Think of it as Lord of the Flies--don't let the parents be absent from the island, and the kids will be ok.

Article in English: Any kind of physical exercise whether it is running, dancing or yoga helps to build body confidence.  Choose an activity that you enjoy. Kickball, walking, karate, swimming and dancing, for instance, all are activities that can help you begin to associate having fun with moving your body. Physical activity sculpts and molds the body. Whichever activity you choose serves of dual purpose of body sculpting and enjoyment. Exercise or physical activity slowly helps you feel more confident about your body, which is helpful when you’re nude. The point is not to lose weight but to gain confidence through movement of the body.    Stay hydrated if you want to do a regular or an extreme workout. If you're not hydrated, you'll be tired the rest of the day and also be out of breath as well for the people that have asthma. Get a massage or facial.  The act of pampering yourself pays homage to your body. It helps you appreciate your body and love it, which makes it easier to incorporate several of the previous steps such as moving the body and eating healthily.   Pampering yourself could be as simple as taking a long bath instead of a shower. Add some sea salt or flower petals  to the water. Grooming activities such as shaving, combing the hair, and rubbing lotion on the body all are elements of pampering and self-appreciation. These tasks build an appreciation for the body that are independent from material adornments such as clothes, shoes and jewelry. If you’re comfortable being naked at home, then it’s much easier to be naked around others and have fun doing it. Getting comfortable with your own nudity at home is essential to being comfortable nude out in the world.  Stand in front of the mirror naked -- not to criticize -- but to appreciate. This also lets you get comfortable seeing yourself naked. If you’re uncomfortable looking at yourself naked, then you will be uncomfortable when others are looking at you naked. Do an activity around the house naked. Water the plants. Dance. Read a book. Style your hair shirtless....

Article in English: Any major electronic retailer should be able to help you with this purchase if you have questions. Generally, brackets come in a size range. This means you can buy a bracket that fits a range of TVs. For example, you might purchase a bracket that fits 32 to 56 inch (81.3 to 142.2 cm) televisions. Any flatscreen TV within this size range should fit the bracket, unless otherwise stated.    If the base is not already attached when you open the box, do not put it on; you'll just have to take it off later. If you have any reservations about laying your plasma TV glass-down on the carpet or floor, check the owner's manual for guidance. Some plasma screen manufacturers recommend working with the flat screen facing upright while attaching the brackets. Those are where you will place the bracket you purchased.  There might be three pieces to your mount. The two small brackets will attach to your TV. Remove any screws plugging the holes if necessary. Many TVs manufacturers plug their mounting holes with screws during assembly. Make sure that the brackets are facing the correct way when screwed to the TV. The bracket should be firmly bolted to the TV, without any wiggle room. You may need to use some washers that come with the bracket to get a tight fit.

Article in English: Any site that you make a purchase on should have a padlock icon next to the address when you are in the checkout process. This ensures that your information is encrypted as it is transferred to the Amazon servers, which prevents thieves from being able to read the data. If you don't see the padlock icon, do not purchase from that website. Secure sites will also have "https://www.example.com" instead of "http://www.example.com" You will have much more security if your account is compromised if you pay with a credit card instead of a debit card. This is because if your debit card information is stolen, the thieves have direct access to your bank account, whereas if the credit card information is stolen, it can all be quickly reversed by the credit card company. Try to use one credit card for all online purchases to help minimize the risk and keep any potential incidents isolated. If you are connected to an unsecured wireless network, any data that you send out from your device is unencrypted until it reaches the router. This means that hackers can "listen in" on your device and the information you are sending and receiving from the internet. If you had to enter a password to join the network, then it is secure and your data is being encrypted. For the most security, only make purchase from a computer on you home network. As you shop more online, you will inevitably be creating multiple accounts to use at various retailers. Always ensure that your passwords are different for each store, regardless of inconvenience, because if one store is compromised the thieves would have access to your payment information any store you use. Keep a record of all of your purchases so that you can compare your receipts to your bank statement. It will also help to have receipts for legitimate purchases in the event of fraud. You can either print and file your receipts or save them digitally. Viruses on your computer can jeopardize your security and send your information to hackers and thieves. To prevent this, make sure that you...

Article in English: Any size will do, as long as you have figurines that will fit inside them.  Pimiento jars, olive jars, artichoke heart jars, and baby food jars are all good choices, but anything with a tight-fitting lid will do the trick - just take a look in your fridge. Wash the jars inside and out. If you're having trouble removing the label, try rubbing it with hot soapy water and using a plastic card or knife to scrape it off. Dry thoroughly. You can put anything you like inside your snow globe. Small children's toys are a good option, as are winter-themed figurines or cake-toppers (think snowmen, Santa Clauses and Christmas trees) from thrift and craft stores.   Just make sure the figurines are plastic or ceramic, as other materials (like metal) may start to rust or turn funny after being submerged in water. If you want to get a little more creative, try making your own figurines from clay. You can buy clay from a craft store, shape it into any form you want (snowmen are really easy) and bake them in the oven. Paint them with water-proof paint and they're ready to use. Another idea is to take pictures of yourself, your family or your pets and laminate them. You can then cut around the outline of each person and place their photo in the snow globe, for a really personalized touch! Even though it's called a snow globe you don't need to limit yourself to creating a winter scene. You could create a beach scene using seashells and sand, or something playful and fun like a dinosaur or a ballerina. Take the lid of your jar and cover the underside with a layer of hot glue, super glue or epoxy. If you like, you can sand the lid with some sandpaper first - this will create a rougher surface which helps the glue to stick better.  While the glue is still wet, build your scene on the underside of the jar. Stick in your figurines, your laminated photos, your clay sculptures, or anything else you want to put in there. If the item you're sticking has a narrow base (such as the laminated photos, or a snipping from a garland or plastic...

Article in English: Any type of string or yarn will work. The string can be many different lengths, but generally three to six feet works best. Multicolored string may make it easier to track your movements while you learn. Make sure the knot is secure and not too big. Some toy makers sell string already in a loop especially for this game. Double-check that the string can slide smoothly across your skin without causing a rope burn. Start with your hands in front of you and both thumbs pointing up. Place a section of the string over the side of your thumbs facing your chest. Your hands should be roughly six inches apart with palms facing each other. You may need to bring your palms closer together slightly. Dip your hands slightly forward with your wrist if necessary. If your string is properly positioned, it should be held diagonally across your palm, looped over the back base of each pinky finger and thumb. Keep your hands level with your chest,  palms facing each other. The result should be a rectangular loop that isn't sagging. This is called Position 1 or First Position.

Article in English: Any wood surface can be wood burned. However, some are better than others. Light-colored and soft wood, such as bass, works especially well. This is because the wood burning stands out on the light color and you don't have to push very hard to make your marks. Woods with minimal grain also work best for wood burning. The grain of wood can cause the lines of wood burning to be bumpy and less precise. Wood with little grain allows you to draw smoother, more precise lines. When wood burning you should begin with a smooth, sanded surface. While it is possible to wood burn a rough surface, wood burning that is done on a smooth surface will be easier to complete and the design will come out more neat and clear in the end. Sand off any coatings that are on the surface you will be wood burning. Burning through paint or stain can create a lot of toxic smoke that is not good to breathe in. The easiest way to get your design onto your wood is to draw it right on with a pencil. This can be done freehand or by using a template or stencil to get a more exact design. It's also possible to freehand your letters with the wood burner. However, when beginning wood burning it is easier to have a pattern on the wood to follow. Make a design on paper or on a computer and transfer it onto your wood surface. Begin by drawing the design on a piece of paper or by creating on a computer and then printing it out. Then place a piece of carbon paper on the wood and set the paper with the design on top of the carbon paper. By taking a pencil or stylus and tracing your design, you will transfer the design onto the surface of the wood. When placing the carbon paper on your wood, make sure the the carbon side of the paper is facing the wood. The side facing up is typically shiny in comparison. There is a technique in which you can transfer photocopied images onto wood using your wood burning iron. Buy an image transfer tip for your iron, which are sold specifically for this technique. Simply place the paper with the image on it face down on...

Article in English: Apple cider vinegar is an old home remedy used to to remove all sorts of skin blemished, including warts. The vinegar contains citric acid and also a high percentage of acetic acid, which is an antiviral (it kills HPV and some other viruses). However, citric and acetic acids can also irritate healthy skin, so be careful when applying it to your hand wart. Try soaking a cotton ball or Q-tip in vinegar and then applying it directly on top of the wart, then cover it with a bandage overnight. After about a week of daily treatment, the wart should turn darker and then fall off. New skin will soon grow in its place.  Apple cider vinegar may cause mild burning or swelling in the skin around the hand wart initially, but it usually goes away quickly. Another potential downside to using apple cider vinegar is that it smells bad to most people. White vinegar consists of acetic acid also, but it doesn't seem to have the impact on warts that apple cider vinegar does. Garlic is another old home remedy that's used for many conditions. It contains a compound called allicin, which is a strong antimicrobial that can kill a variety of microorganisms, including HPV. In a 2005 study, an extract of garlic was discovered to completely cure warts after a few weeks and there was no reappearance many months later. Raw, crushed garlic or store-bought extracts can be applied directly onto your hand wart a few times daily for 1-2 weeks. Once you apply it, cover it with a bandage for a few hours until you decide to reapply more. For best results, apply the garlic just before bedtime so the allicin can absorb deep into the wart.  Like the application of apple cider vinegar, using garlic on warts may cause mild burning or swelling in the skin around your hand wart, but it usually fades away. And obviously, it also has a strong odor. As a less-effective alternative, you can take capsules of refined garlic orally (by mouth), which attacks HPV from your bloodstream. Thuja oil is made from leaves and roots of Western Red Cedars. It's an old...

You can also apply deicers during a snowfall after you’ve removed the first layer of snow. You should expect to use about 1 gallon of the chemical for every 1,000 square feet of pavement. You should be able to buy it at hardware stores. Chemicals can be very toxic to plants and animals. Follow all directions, and consider other methods if you have pets or expensive landscaping. Rock salt works at temperatures that are above 12 degrees Fahrenheit, although it’s not a good idea to put it on concrete or grass. You can purchase rock salt, otherwise known as sodium chloride, at many gas stations or grocery stores.  Store the rock salt in a sealed bucket, and spread it around the public space or pavement with a handheld spreader or a push spreader. It will melt the ice and prevent the area from being a hazard for slipping. Use about a handful for every square yard. If you’re not a fan of salt, you could try urea, which is usually used as a fertilizer and performs the same function as rock salt. It can be hard to find, though. The key is to find a deicer. Alfalfa meal is another fertilizer that helps melt snow. One downside of rock salt is that it can harm plants or pets, and it doesn’t really work if the temperature is below 25 degrees. It can also leach into soil. Calcium chloride pellets melt ice faster than rock salt does, and they  have some other advantages as a deicer.  Calcium chloride is effective with colder temperatures than rock salt. It works with temperatures of up to minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit. Calcium chloride can be harmful to pets or animals, and it costs a lot more than rock salt, though. It also can cause a surface to become slippery. Prolonged use of chemical snow melt can damage concrete...

Article in English: Applying cold packs can work wonders when you want to relieve itchy skin. Temperature sensations travel along the same path to your brain as the itching sensation. Hold the cold compress on the affected area until you feel relief. You can also take cold showers to relieve itch. However, keep in mind that diabetics are discouraged from showering too frequently, particularly if you have poor control of your glucose levels.  Therefore, it’s better to stick with cold compresses for the most part. Mix ¼ cup water with 1 cup of colloidal oatmeal and stir it into a thick paste. Apply this mixture to the affected area. Keep the mixture on that section of your body for 15 minutes. The oatmeal will soothe the itching and provide you with temporary relief. You can also apply a paste made by adding a half-cup of water to one cup of baking powder. Stir with a spoon until the paste is thoroughly mixed and smooth. Apply the mixture to the affected area and keep it there for 15 minutes, then wash it off.

Article in English: Applying ice to your tailbone may help to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. For the first 48 hours after an injury to your tailbone, you can apply ice once per hour that you are awake. Apply a towel wrapped ice pack to your tailbone for 20 minutes at a time. After 48 hours you may apply ice for comfort, three times daily in the same manner. Take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) to reduce pain and swelling. These over-the-counter (OTC) products, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, can be purchased at any pharmacy or drugstore. Take 600 mg of ibuprofen every eight hours, or take 500 mg of acetaminophen every 4 hours. Do not exceed 3500 mg of acetaminophen in a 24-hour period. Poor posture may be contributing to your tailbone pain. Try to sit upright, with your core engaged, your neck straight, and your back slightly arched. If you get a sharp pain when getting up from a sitting position, lean forward and arch your back before rising. Special cushions, with a section cut out underneath the tailbone, are designed especially for patients with tailbone pain. This may help relieve some of the pain associated with sitting down.     It is possible to make your own cushion from a piece of foam rubber.  Just cut out a hole in the center so it is shaped like a toilet seat. Cushions shaped like a doughnut are not found helpful by most patients, as they are designed to relieve pressure on the genitals rather than the tailbone. Talk to your doctor about use of a wedge-shaped pillow. Studies show that applying heat to the tailbone area may decrease pain. Use a heating pad up to 4 times per day for 20 minutes each time. Try a warm compress or hot bath if you do not have a heating pad. If it turns out that you have a tailbone fracture, there is no cast that can be placed on the tailbone. You will just have to rest and avoid any strenuous activities for about eight to 12 weeks. If you have a physical job, you may need to arrange to take some time off from work while your body heals. Some people experience pain...

Article in English: Appoint a member or two to stand at the door and greet people as they arrive. The use of greeters can make the atmosphere seem friendlier and more welcoming. At minimum, try to provide water for the attendees, especially if the meeting will be a lengthy one.   Offering a variety of refreshments is a better option. Consider providing both cold drinks (water, iced tea, and lemonade/punch) and hot drinks (coffee and hot tea). Depending on the time of day, it may also be appropriate to offer light snacks like cheese and crackers. The guest speaker should talk on an unofficial issue of great importance to the members of your organization. Typically, the speaker will follow the presentation of general business but will come before the close of the actual meeting. If desired, though, you may ask the speaker to present after the official meeting closes. A door prize can encourage attendance. Raffles can encourage both attendance and financial support.  Consider hosting a 50/50 raffle in which half the proceeds go to the winner and half go to the organization. Gift basket raffles are another option. Consider making attendance a requirement for claiming prizes. Encourage attendance by keeping the formal business part of the AGM as brief as possible. Follow it with a social where attendees can interact and enjoy themselves.  If you have the budget, consider hosting a luncheon after the meeting ends. You can cut costs by making the luncheon a potluck. For organizations with lower budgets, an informal cocktail hour might be more realistic. Instead of providing refreshments during the meeting, wait until afterward and serve the snack food with a variety of non-alcoholic drinks and wine.

Article in English: Approach people you’re interested in conversing with and simply say hello.  Offer your name, and ask theirs. While it may feel awkward to start a conversation without an explicit reason for doing so, people are usually happy to be approached in a friendly manner.  If you’re in a group and hope to speak with one person in particular, don’t feel rushed to do so. Just sitting, listening, and enjoying one another’s company is a great way to become comfortable around other people. Wait for a moment to introduce yourself unobtrusively. Remember, silence is a form of communication. Even in social settings, a comfortable silence indicates confidence and contentment that people will respond to positively. In a group setting, ask each person that you haven’t already met for their name. This indicates a general friendliness that will convey to others that you're social and accessible. People like to talk about what they’re interested in, and questions that are geared accordingly can be great conversation starters.  Make sure to bring up some topics that you are interested in as well, such as your hobbies and interests, so that you can have a quality 2-way conversation. There are plenty of specific options.  Ask the person you’re curious about what they do for fun.  Not only does this get a conversation going, it shows that you’re curious about what they’re interested in and how they spend their time. Ask them what they do with their life, but don't be specific. Say something like, “So, what do you do with your days?” This allows people to answer however they want. If you’re looking for a particularly interesting question, try asking them about a recent quote they came across that changed how they viewed the world. Refrain from talking about your radical political or religious beliefs as soon as you meet someone.  Deeply personal topics should also be avoided, as well as private information.  Even if it seems like you might share a certain point of view with another person, you don’t need to immediately re-iterate your...

Article in English: Aquarium plants are the most common source of unwanted snails. They often harbor eggs or baby snails, which then reproduce once they’re in your tank. Fortunately, you can avoid putting infected plants into your aquarium by quarantining them for 2 weeks before putting them in your tank. If you see any snails during the quarantine period, pick them off the plant as soon as you notice them. Create your bleach solution by adding 1 part bleach to 19 parts water. Then, dip each individual plant into the solution and immediately withdraw it. This will kill any lingering snails or eggs. Rinse the plant in fresh water before putting it in your aquarium. You only need to submerge the plant in the solution for a second for it to work, so it's okay to just dip and remove the plant in one motion. , including removing the gravel. You can purge all of the snails by hand if you have the time. Move your fish to a temporary tank, then empty the water from the aquarium. Remove everything, including the gravel and substrate, from the tank, then scrub all of the snails from the sides of the tank.  Replace your gravel and substrate for best results. Before you put your plants and other fixtures back in the aquarium, clean them. One way to do this is to dip them in a cleaning solution that’s 19 parts water and 1 part bleach. This will kill any snails or eggs that are on them. If you don’t want to take everything out of the tank, you can use a siphon to suck out just the gravel and substrate. Additionally, you’ll need to pick the snails off the sides of the tank. Some fish eat snails and can clear out your tank for you. When selecting a predator fish, check its fact sheet to make sure it won’t eat your other fish. Additionally, make sure it’s not too big for your tank.  For a small fish tank, you might choose a zebra or dwarf chain loach. If you have a large fish tank, you can choose a clown loach, pictus catfish, koi, or large goldfish.  As an alternative, you might place an assassin snail into your tank. It will enjoy eating the...

Article in English: Are you afraid to get a bad grade? Do you think you may embarrass yourself in front of your crush? Once you identify these thoughts, try to find reasons why they are not true.  For example, when you think, "I am going to make a fool out of myself in front of my friends," try thinking something more positive such as, "I am going to be so prepared that I will sound smart enough to impress all of my friends." Remember, fear of public speaking is very common. You are not alone in your fear, and there will be plenty of resources to help you figure things out. Talk to a respectful friend or an adult who has public speaking skills that you want to emulate. Ask them how they handle big presentations and what they would do in your situation. Talk about how they prepare and how they stay on track while they speak.  If the person is someone you can easily talk to or trust, ask them to be your practice audience. If your campus has a speech and debate club or organization, you can ask to come observe one of their meetings, and talk to a couple members about how they cope. You can practicing public speaking every day, even when you don't have an assignment. Challenge yourself to do one thing that makes you uncomfortable each day, like raising your hand in class, talking to a classmate you don't know well, or ordering food over the phone instead of online. Then, use these challenges as a chance to practice your public speaking skills. If you know that you tend to talk fast, for example, use your daily challenge as an opportunity to practice speaking slower and enunciating. If you know you are quiet when you speak, practice speaking louder. When you're nervous about speaking, it can cause you to focus on what you think will go wrong. Any time you notice that happening, try as hard as you can to fight back by thinking about a successful outcome. Think about the best ending possible to your speech, whether it's an A on your assignment or a standing ovation. This may feel silly at first, but the more you visualize your own...

Article in English: Are you just looking for a slight change to revitalize your look or are you interested in making a dramatic change? Make sure that you consider rules at your place of work or school as you think of new colour possibilities. If you are considering a haircut in addition to your new hair colour, you should get your hair cut first. If you cut your hair first, you will save money because you will need less dye to colour your hair. Cutting before colouring will also allow you to see the effects of your new hair colour on your new haircut. There are a lot of different things you can do with your hair, and each have a different effect on your appearance. For example, dark colours will make your hair feel thicker and heavier while light shades emphasize textures and layers and will make your hair feel less heavy.  Make sure to think about the effect that different colours may have on the haircut you want. Think about whether you’d like to get a single colour or a dimensional look. If you make a dramatic change, like going from blonde to black, then you will need to have regular touch-ups every 4-6 weeks to maintain that look. But if you only make a subtle change, like going only one shade darker than your natural colour, you will not need to worry about maintenance as much. Decide how much time and money you are willing to put into maintaining your hair colour before you decide on one. Cut pictures out of magazines or save images onto your phone or computer so that you can easily look through them. Saving these pictures will also provide your hair stylist with a guide if you decide to have your hair professionally coloured.

Article in English: Are you used to sleeping in a full set of pajamas? Even if you normally wear a t-shirt to bed, you might need a night or two to adjust before sleeping fully nude. Going straight from fully clothed to naked might disrupt your sleep at first. Plan to wear just your underwear (no bra) at first to see how it feels.  Sleeping in just your underwear provides some of the benefits of sleeping naked. More of your skin is exposed to the air, and this circulation helps promote clearer skin. However, having underwear on will still cause your body to rely on that extra layer to help regulate heat. The parts of your body covered by underwear won't receive healthy air circulation. That's why it's worth giving nude sleeping a chance. Sleeping naked is healthy because it allows your skin to be free of constrictive clothing for a good seven to eight hours. Choose fabrics made from natural materials, preferably cotton, so that the air in your bedroom can circulate through to your body.  Using polyester and other synthetic materials isn't as healthy for your skin. The fabrics may keep you too warm or block the air, negating the positive effects of sleeping naked. If you're really concerned about having the healthiest night's sleep possible, choose sheets made with organic fibers. That way your naked skin won't be exposed to any chemicals. Many people complain that it's too cold to sleep naked during the winter. This can easily be remedied by using the proper bedclothes for the season. If you have a good down comforter, your body will adjust to the environment and stay nice and warm without the need for pajamas. In the summer, a sheet and a thin cotton blanket might be all you need to stay comfortable.  It helps to have a good collection of quilts or thin cotton blankets you can keep in your bedroom. That way you can add or subtract layers depending on your needs. Using a top sheet all year round is helpful. You can kick off your blanket if you need to and still have a sheet to keep you from feeling completely exposed. You may...

Article in English: Areas with tons of trees or buildings can obscure your view of the horizon. Without being able to see the horizon, you cannot get an accurate measurement. If you can find a field with no tall objects nearby, you will get a more accurate reading.  This technique will tell you approximately how much daylight is remaining.  Use this method on sunny days, with minimal or no clouds in the sky. If you cannot see the sun at all, you cannot track its position. Being aware of the approximate time of day might be helpful if you’re trying to estimate the time. Hold up your arm with your wrist bent so that your hand is horizontal and your palm is facing towards you. Line up the top edge of your index finger with the bottom of the sun. Your bottom (pinky) finger should be between the ground and sky, but if your bottom finger is below the horizon, then the sun will set within the next hour. Hold your hand in this position.  Either hand can work, but you may feel most comfortable starting with your dominant hand. Keep your thumb out of the way. Because thumbs are thicker and angled away from your fingers, they will ruin your timing. If you still have space between your hand and the sun, stack your other hand under the first one. Press the index finger of your other hand against the pinky finger on your first hand.  Continue stacking one hand under the other until you reach the horizon. Keep track of how many hands it takes to go from the bottom of the sun to the horizon. The number of hands it takes is the number of daylight hours remaining, or the hours left until sunset. For example, if you count 5 hands, then there are 5 hours remaining in the day or 5 hours until sunset. Once you've reached the horizon, you can also count how many fingers could fit in the space between the sun and horizon if you can’t fit a whole hand there. This is also helpful if you cannot fit your whole hand between the sin and the horizon. In this case, you will only need to count the fingers between the sun and horizon instead. Each finger that...

Article in English: Arguably the best time to overseed is during September, or at least six weeks before temperatures reach freezing or there is an overnight frost. If you can't overseed in September, overseed in early spring.  Grass seed grows and germinates best when daytime temperatures are around 50°F (10°C). Germination will not take place if overnight temperatures create heavy frost. Allow at least one to three weeks for the seeds to germinate. You will then want to allow the grass seed a few weeks to get rooted before a frost.

They tend to be rude and selfish, headstrong, confident, talented, charismatic, sociable, in good shape, and into sports. In a word, they are the doers. Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn: These people are physical and passive. They are perfectionists, hard-working, and tend to be introverted. They are confident, reliable, consistent, and understanding of many things. They're often overlooked but they, in a lot of ways, hold society together. In a word, they are the back-bone. Gemini, Libra, Aquarius: These people are mental and active. They are intelligent, interested in knowledge, energetic, charming, and good with words. They tend to be too changeable, articulate, and optimistic. In a word, they are the thinkers. Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces: These people are emotional and passive. They are emotionally sensitive, and deep. They are capable of powerful thoughts and actions; they are passionate and sexual. They are very intuitive and can almost seem psychic. In a word, they are the feelers. It has little to do with being macho or girly. In fact, men with astrological femininity often compensate by acting macho (working out, claiming to be promiscuous or tough) and women with astrological masculinity often compensate by acting "girly" (wearing "girly" clothes and makeup, claiming to be emotional).  Astrologically masculine qualities: Independence, dating a lot, they may come off as rude to those that don't understand them but in reality they just stand up for what they think is right, traveling a lot, and preferring to pursue people; being energetic, active, headstrong, talkative, confident, open-minded, sexual, and flirtatious. Astrologically feminine qualities: Preferring long-term relationships, preferring to stay at home, needing more sleep, and preferring to be pursued; being methodical, considerate, reliable, kind, stubborn, polite, and shy.

Article in English: Art galleries host events to show off new artists' artwork that can help you get your name into the art world.  Local galleries enjoy loyal and steady art lovers, making them ideal places to build a following.  Even if you don't grab the attention of important art folk, you'll be spreading your name to those who may know said important art folk.  These galleries also tend to have an established network of art promoters who love to support budding artists.  Because they are often small, they tend to pay special attention to individual artists.  They also will focus on bringing in interested collectors, practically advertising your work for you.  While galleries are great, know that you aren't limited to them to showcase your work.  Cafes, office lobbies, schools, and other places of business often host mini exhibitions from local talent.  This is a great way of exposing your art to casual art fans; remember, not everyone goes to art galleries, but they do grab the occasional coffee. You'll most likely have to share a portion of the profit with the gallery.  They are helping market your name, which does come with a price.  Don't worry; this is a small price to pay for getting to share your work. Showing support to your peers may prove invaluable when the time comes to host your own exhibit.  It will also expose you to unique business opportunities and information.  When selling your art, remember it's all about who you know.  Most cities have a local art council who promote and manage art events and exhibitions.  These councils are known to give out funding to local talent, asking artists to partake in community projects or other such tasks.  Your arts community may also have a website that posts regular job opportunities or small-scale commissions.  They may also promote local exhibitions and shows.  Stay current with these local channels to find lucrative opportunities. Aside from art lovers and promoters, some businesses also love to be seen supporting the arts.  It's not uncommon for artists to be brought...

Article in English: As a business owner, the most important goal when beginning a new business, job, or craft is simply to survive. If you’re starting your own business or getting in on the ground floor, avoid establishing unrealistic goals for the fledgling enterprise.  The heart of all businesses, even those with altruistic, selfless ownership, is making money. The goal might be modest (just enough to allow your business to survive and grow) or enormous (to attract additional investors and satisfy shareholders), but this is true to some degree for every business. You will never achieve that goal of, say, providing mittens to all of the underprivileged kids  in the world through your new mitten shop, if you don’t focus on keeping that coffee shop in business and thriving first. Long-term goals are important, but shouldn’t come at the expense of sustainable short-term ones. Ever heard the saying “You’ve gotta spend money to make money?” Frugality is advised wherever possible, but only so much that it frees up capital for the more important, more deserving expenses. Those expenses might be the salaries of particularly accomplished professionals you’re hoping to woo, or trade magazines, or simply a nice suit so as to look the part in the company of your colleagues and clients. Aim to invest in future success, not just celebrate current success. Avoid exorbitantly expensive ties and jackets, company cars, and huge offices you really don’t need—but don’t take it for granted that nice things are automatically exorbitant. Image is an important component of success in business, but not just when it comes to the superficial. Having an enormous office you can’t fill or work you can’t pay for punctually (on account of that enormous office or company car lease) will feed into other companies’ perception of you as well. New businesses need to survive if they’re going to ever be anything, but all businesses must take on risk of some kind. Stepping outside the norm, either in your role at a company or in the expectations for the industry, is...

Article in English: As a dairy product, yogurt contains acids that can help lighten dark spots. The “good” bacteria in yogurt may be beneficial as well, as they are known to contain enzymes that can break down proteins like melanin.  Rub the plain yogurt onto your dark spots that need “fading”. Leave on until the yogurt dries, and then rinse off with cool water. Some herbs may help the yogurt remove the spots from your skin.  Apply the yogurt and herb mixture directly onto your face and any other area with spots. Leave on until dry, and then rinse off with cool water. The following herbs contain antioxidants and bioflavonoids that can help lighten brown spots when combined with yogurt:  1 tablespoon of mustard powder 1 tablespoon of turmeric/curcumin powder 1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel . Castor oil contains antioxidants that can protect and lighten the skin. Soak a cotton ball with a few drops of castor oil and dab on your skin anywhere you want to fade the spots. Let it soak in and leave it on! Vitamin E has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties and can help fade dark spots on your skin. Open or pierce a liquid capsule of Vitamin E and apply directly to your dark spots. Let it soak in and leave it on!

Article in English: As a teen or kid, you are growing at a pretty quick pace. So you probably have some clothes that don’t fit you. Go through your wardrobe and pick out nice pieces to sell that you no longer wear.  You can take your clothes to a thrift or secondhand store. These consignment stores will go through your clothes and offer you money for the items that the store decides to buy from you. Selling old clothes is a great way to make some extra money. It can also help you pay for new clothes. Make sure that any clothes you plan to sell are clean and ironed. And that your shoes are shined and without too much wear. You will have a better chance of selling your clothes if the pieces look nice and presentable. Don’t spend all your earnings or savings. If you sell your old stuff or even make things to sell, don’t spend all the money you earn. The importance of a goal is that it helps you stay committed to earning money for a specific purpose. Instead of spending all the money you earn, put at least 10% of it away. Don’t spend that money until you have reached your goal. You can easily gather up any toys or clothes that you no longer have a need for and sell these items right from your front yard.  Get your friends from the neighborhood to help you as well. The more of you there are, the more appealing your sale will look as it will have more items to browse. Your friends probably have things that can be sold and will probably be willing to help. Post signs up around your neighborhood advertising your sale a few days before the sale so people can learn about it. It’s also a good idea to hold the garage sale in the spring. Garage sales are popular in the spring as people are typically cleaning out junk that accumulated over the last year or so. Before you sell anything that you think is yours, make sure you get permission from your parents. You shouldn’t sell clothes, toys, or other items without permission. Especially if your parents were the ones who bought you these items. You can learn to make great products that are...

Article in English: As an HSP, you need to manage stress effectively because your heightened senses and sensitive neural system cause you to feel stress more acutely than other people. You will likely feel the effects of stress if you attempt to keep up with outside demands when your body is telling you that you need a break to refresh and regroup.  Stress causes a physiological response in the body. It causes the body to produce increased cortisol and epinephrine, which sends your body into “flight” mode. Additionally, stress causes your liver to produce more glucose, your heart rate increases, your blood vessels dilate, your breathing rate increases, your muscles tense, and your stomach may become upset, possibly leading to vomiting.  Untreated or prolonged stress can lead to risk for hypertension, heart attack, stroke, chronic headaches, and persistent fatigue. People with highly sensitive personalities tend to either over-socialize or under-socialize.  It is important to find the right balance between getting out of your house (and your comfort zone!) while allowing yourself much-needed decompression in the form of time alone in a familiar setting.  If you spend too much time out, you may find yourself listening more to external demands than internal demands and you’re likely to become overwhelmed or over-stimulated on a regular basis. This can lead to physical symptoms of stress, including headaches, fatigue, muscle tension, and even insomnia.   If you spend too much time in, you run the risk of missing out on valuable experiences and activities. Additionally, going out can become increasingly difficult as you become less accustomed to being in unfamiliar or uncomfortable situations. If you begin to feel restless and lonely, you may want to push yourself towards more social activities. Everyone needs to get plenty of sleep to thrive, but sensitive individuals may find sleep even more important. Sleep helps the body repair and allows individuals to regulate emotions effectively. HSPs may do worse than others attempting to...

Article in English: As an artist, you will be spending long hours honing your craft. Whether you're working at an easel or on a computer, you want to make sure you're as comfortable as possible. If you work with a messy medium like paint, avoid clothing that is too baggy, especially if it has sleeves. Even if you aren't worried about getting your work clothes dirty, too-loose clothing may end up smearing your work. If you work with anything that can stain, such as paint or ink, you should take precautions to keep media away from your clothes. Cover up with an apron or a painting smock. Make sure it's made of a thick enough material that your media won't soak through quickly. Even with taking care and wearing an apron, you are likely to still get the odd splash of paint here or there. Washing immediately may take care of most media on various fabrics, but you are bound to get the occasional permanent stain. Don't wear your best slacks in the studio. As a young artist, you probably don't have a lot of money. Instead of pining for designer jeans way out of your price range, learn to build a stylish wardrobe without breaking the bank.  Keep your clothes in good condition. Clothes that last longer will save you money. T-shirts and jeans may sound like a mundane combo, but you can use your own personal style to stand out. Wear T-shirts of your own design or that are otherwise unique. Wear jeans that are other colors besides the typical denim blue. A simple, creative way to stretch your wardrobe is to "mix and match" different pieces to create unique looks. Simply switching jackets between two suits will give you two "new" outfits. Second hand shops are the best way to stretch your clothing budget. In addition to basics and run-of-the-mill pieces, you'll be able to find unique styles at an affordable price. Look for quirky, odd "signature" pieces that fit your personality and will make you stand out.  You can find retro and modern styles and then easily mix and match them. Most thrift shops have one or more glass cases in the front...

Выбирайте комфортную одежду для работы. Защищайте свою одежду. Работайте в одежде, которую вам не жалко испортить. Носите те вещи, которые у вас уже есть. Покупайте подержанную одежду. Не переплачивайте за марку. Одевайтесь так, как вам хочется.


Article in English: As an old song says, “Breaking up is hard to do.” Scientists have even shown that romantic rejection activates the same pathways in the brain that physical pain does. It hurts when you break up with someone, and it’s completely natural to feel upset about it. Some psychologists estimate that about 98% of us have experienced some form of unrequited love, whether it’s an unreturned crush or a nasty breakup. Knowing that you’re not alone probably won’t heal your broken heart, but it could make the pain easier to bear. Don’t pretend you’re fine. Denying or minimizing your emotions -- like telling yourself “I’m really fine” or “It’s no big deal” -- will actually make them worse in the long run. You have to process how you’re feeling so you can move past it.  Cry your eyes out if you feel like it. Crying can actually be therapeutic when you’re upset. It can reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, and anger. So go ahead, grab some tissues and wail your heart out if it helps.  Express your emotions through creative pursuits, like art or music. Write a song about how you feel, or play a track that comforts you. Draw a picture of your emotional state. The only thing here is to stay away from things that are too sad or angry (think death metal). These may actually increase your feelings of sadness and anger.  It’s tempting to let your grief out by punching or breaking things, screaming, or shouting, but avoid this impulse if you can. Studies show that using violence to express your anger, even if it’s toward an inanimate object like a pillow, can actually make you feel more angry. To express your anger in a healthy way, try talking about your feelings to yourself or to someone you love.  This will be easier with a family member or friend you trust. Find someone who has a shoulder you're comfortable crying on and let loose. They've likely cried on your shoulder at some point. Now all they're doing is returning the favor. Expressing how you feel, rather than bottling it all up or trying to ignore it, will help you accept that...

Article in English: As an owner salesperson, that is, one who owns the business that is selling the product, you have the ability to affect more than just the interaction with buyers. In addition to the strategies mentioned in the rest of this article, you can also use other functions to improve your sales. Advertising, merchandising, and marketing are support functions for sales. Selling is the goal of these support functions and a good owner salesperson needs to have a decent understanding of each of these.  Read basic texts on marketing. These will inform you about many of the tactics and techniques underlying advertising, merchandising, and marketing. It is important to make your product information available through as many channels as possible. Today, the range of potential placements has increased a great deal thanks to the advances in communications. Give your potential buyers many possible places to find out more about your product in numerous ways, such as:  Word-of-mouth Advertising (radio, TV, print, email, social media, online ads, etc.) Sales representatives Trade shows Conferences Cold call sales Product placement in movies, sports, etc. Local community events (for instance, donating a product to a local benefit auction will draw attention to your product and serve a good cause) You should analyze your sales at regular intervals. Is the product selling well? Is stock low or high? Are you profiting? How are your competitors performing? Being able to answer these questions will help you maximize your sales, and keep growth steady. If you are not selling well, you will need to enter problem-solving mode. Improving your sales will involve reassessing your product, customer base, and marketing.  Change your tactics periodically. If customers hear the same sales routine over and over again, or see the same display month in and month out, your product might start to seem irrelevant. Consider deleting a product from your line if it is not selling well. Stock can be sold at discounted prices to liquidate it. Review your...

Article in English: As different people have different problems and abilities as they age, you need to quickly determine what kind of abilities and/or assistance they will need. If they have decreased abilities and physical or mental limitations, there are several factors you need to consider:  What is the person's physical and mental condition and what chronic illness does the person have? If so, you need to take these into account and prepare for them. Is the person of sound mind? If your elderly roommate has or is developing dementia or Alzheimer’s, you need to seriously consider what you are going to do to keep that person safe. Visit the Alzheimer’s Association website at http://www.alz.org/alzheimers_disease_what_is_alzheimers.asp for more information. Is the person physically able to take care of themselves? If not, make sure the elderly person always has someone around to look after them. If you work outside the home, then the day may come where you have to hire some in-home help to care for the older person. You need to know what help and how much time you can commit to possibly assisting an elderly person that you live with. If you will have to provide a lot of assistance, this may create unanticipated stresses in your life.  Be realistic about the level of help your elderly roommate might need. This might increase over time. Know your limits and your comfort with helping the person with basic things like dressing, bathing, and going to the bathroom. Think about your schedule. Consider this if you have a full-time career and children. If the person is not a family member, you should have their family’s contact information. If the person is comfortable with this, you should also have their emergency medical information, and know where their important documents are in case of emergency. This way, you'll have all the information you need in the event of an emergency. If the person needs the help, familiarize yourself with what medications they take in case there is an accident or medical emergency. Also be aware of drug...

Article in English: As directed above, allow the pork to warm gradually. When the pork reaches room temperature, season generously with a "rub" of your choice. This dry, flavorful exterior translates into a crisp, delicious crust after grilling. You have many options when it comes to dry rubs. For instance, for a BBQ-inspired rub, try rubbing the pork down with a mix of white and brown sugar, salt, pepper, and other spices of your choice (like cinnamon and cumin). Use a sharp knife to make fairly shallow cuts in a criss-cross pattern across the surface of the pork. As noted above, this allows the juices to escape, basting the pork, and allows both the heat of the grill and the flavor of the seasonings to penetrate deeper. Regardless of the type of grill you have, your goal is to cook the pork at a steady temperature of roughly 225 degrees Fahrenheit (107 degrees Celsius). A grill thermometer can help you keep track of the temperature in the grill as it warms up. Keep the grill lid closed to speed the heating process. Paint olive oil or nonstick cooking spray on the grill grates to prevent the meat from sticking during cooking. If you have a gas grill, it's relatively simple to set the grill to a medium-high heat. If you have a charcoal grill, however, it's a little more difficult. Light your charcoal and allow the flames to die down before cooking your pork. The charcoal is ready when it is mostly or entirely grey and glows with a red-orange heat. To help regulate the temperature inside the grill and prevent the pork from drying out, place an oven-safe pan or metal pie tin full of water in the grill if you have room to do so. If you have a two-level grill, a good place for this tray is on the upper cooking rack. Add your pork to the grill and close the lid. Allow the pork to cook, checking occasionally to test for done-ness. When done, the pork should have a crisp brown and black exterior, a tender texture, and the internal temperature should reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit (70 degrees Celsius). Because pork cooked in this way can...

Summary in Russian:

Доведите свинину до комнатной температуры и приправьте по желанию. Проверьте свиную лопатку. Разогрейте гриль до средней температуры. Поставьте на гриль лоток воды. Запекайте на гриле свиную лопатку приблизительно 90 минут на полкило мяса. Дайте мясу настояться 10–15 минут перед разделыванием. Для дополнительного дымного аромата подкоптите мясо с древесными щепками. Приятного аппетита!


Article in English: As directed above, remove the pork from the refrigerator or freezer and allow it to warm naturally. If the meat is frozen, allow it to defrost overnight. As you wait for your pork shoulder to warm, set a frying pan or skillet on the stove top. When it's hot enough that beads of water flicked into the pan boil up instantly, add a few tablespoons of oil. Add your cut of pork shoulder to the skillet. Cook in oil over high heat until brown on all sides (this can require several minutes for each side). Slow cookers like crock pots use moist heat and therefore can't give the pork a delicious "crust" on their own, which makes it necessary to crisp the exterior of the pork in a pan before slow cooking. Delicious as a cut of pork shoulder can be on its own, if you're using a slow cooker to braise your pork to moist, delicious perfection, you'll want to make sure it's not alone in the pot. Vegetables and seasonings add their flavor to the pork (and vice versa), increasing the complexity of the flavor in the dish. In addition, slow cooked "stew"-style vegetables make a great side dish for pork.  Feel free to add any vegetables you like. Chopped onions, garlic, carrots, and potatoes all work well. Additionally, any seasonings are fair game. For Latin-flavored carnitas, you might try cumin, garlic powder, and pepper, while for a more European flavor, you might try sage, rosemary, and thyme. Place the pork shoulder into the crock pot on top of the other desired ingredients. Sprinkle any seasonings you're using over the pile of ingredients. Then, cover 1/2 to 3/4 of the pork shoulder with liquid. This can be a variety of things - water, unsweetened apple juice, beer, or, commonly, stock are all frequent choices. Make your choice based on what pairs well with the ingredients and seasonings in your pork dish - there's no one "right" answer. Feel free to mix and match!  As an example, if you're making the carnitas described above, you might try slow cooking your pork in Mexican beer for a delicious, complex taste. Also, when...

Article in English: As fish ages and begins to go bad, its outer surface will become wetter and eventually develop a thin layer of slime. This is a good sign that your fish has begun to spoil. Once fish has fully spoiled, the slimy moisture on the meat will feel thick and slippery to the touch.  Discard fresh fish as soon as you notice the beginning of this slimy texture. Cooked fish will not develop a slimy coating, even after it’s started to go bad. All fish—raw or cooked—smells like fish. However, refrigerated fish that has started to go bad will have an increasingly fishy smell. If given enough time, this potent fish smell will develop into the putrid smell of rotting meat. As fish continues to spoil, its pungent fish smell will grow stronger and stronger. It’s best to discard fish as soon as it starts to smell “off.” Fish meat is typically light pink or white in color, with a thin, clear film of liquid. As fresh or refrigerated fish ages and begins to go bad, the meat will take on a glossy, milky color. The milky parts of the fish may also take on a blue- or gray-ish tint. If you’ve already cooked your fish, it will not develop a milky color. This sign of expiration applies only to raw fish. If you’ve kept fish in the freezer for over 9 months, it may begin showing signs of freezer burn. Look for crystallized peaks of ice that have formed on the surface of the fish, and note any discolored patches as well. Discard freezer-burned food. Freezer-burned food is still technically edible, and it will not make you sick. However, fish will lose most of its flavor and take on a grainy texture as freezer burn sets in.

Article in English: As hard as you try to strike a balance, there may be some situations where crossover is necessary, especially if you have kids. Consider your personal and professional lives to identify situations where some crossover may be necessary. Think about your family members and your personal responsibilities. How often do these people and responsibilities require your attention while you are working?  For example, if you have young children, then arranging your work schedule around your kids’ schedules may be necessary. Or, if you are the primary caretaker of your children and you work from home, then you may need to put work aside and take a break whenever one of your kids needs something. It is also possible that work may have to take precedent over your personal life sometimes. For example, if you work as an on-call healthcare provider, then you may sometimes need to cancel something in your personal life to do your job. The needs of others at work, school, or home can quickly overwhelm our own physical needs. Unfortunately, neglecting your health can have costly consequences, such as missing work or classes and being unable to participate in social or family events. Being anxious about getting everything done creates stress, and if it is not tended to stress can have debilitating effects on your physical and mental health.  To counteract stress and nurture your body be sure to get involved in some type of physical activity several times per week. It can be joining a company sports team, jogging around the block with your partner, or visiting a local gym. In addition to exercise, you can combat stress by consuming several balanced meals each day, getting adequate sleep, and pursuing your outside interests. When work, school, or relationships become too demanding, we might give up our hobbies or interests to meet those demands. The problem is, giving up these things take away our ability to debrief from professional and personal stress. Make an effort to protect your leisure time and continue any social outlets or...

Article in English: As in the real world, the first step to flirting is to get over your cold feet and jump right in!  Text the other person a brief message asking them about their day, asking them a specific question about work or school, or simply saying "Hi!". The hardest part of flirting is to break through your initial reluctance, so if you're having a hard time taking the plunge, just remind yourself that no matter how badly it goes, it'll be less stressful than an equivalent real-world encounter.   There's no reason to be nervous when it comes to IM flirting — if the person you want to talk to doesn't want to talk to you, s/he always has the option of simply not responding to your message, as, from your point of view, this is indistinguishable from him or her simply being away from the computer. This being said, if you barely know someone, it can be a good idea to have an excuse for starting a conversation to avoid awkwardness. Asking for help with a work or school-related problem is almost always a good bet, as is asking a question about something striking about the person. For instance, if the person has a band-related username, you might say: "Hey, cool name. Did you see those guys when they last came to town?" After your initial greeting and exchange of pleasantries, you'll probably want to ask how the person's doing (just like you might in the real world). Ask him or her about work or school, his/her interests, or any recent trips, for instance. Rather than asking a question, you can also simply offer your comments on these things. When s/he responds, add your own comments or ask follow-up questions and proceed from there! Don't pry into his or her personal life — keep things light, fun, and focused on worry-free subjects.   Don't dwell too long on small talk. A minute or two is great for breaking the ice, but much more can get boring fast. For example, after we've opened up by asking about this person's interest in the band in his/her username, it's logical and reasonable to ask about this person's musical likes and...

Article in English: As long as the weather is still warm and dry, you should let the sunflowers reach full maturity while still growing. If possible, do not cut the flower heads off before the back turns yellow-brown. Ideally, you should wait until the sunflower loses its petals and the head droops. You might need to tie the flower head to a stake as it begins to die and droop, though. The head will become heavier, and the plant will begin to weaken under its own weight. Wrap cheesecloth or even a paper bag around around the flower heads and tie it on with kitchen twine. Doing so will protect the seeds from birds and squirrels, and it will also catch seeds that may fall off. Wait until after the flower starts to die and droop before covering the flower head. If you need to cut the flower heads off early due to pests or climate, cut off about 1 foot (30 centimetres) of the stem along with it, and hang the plants upside down inside to dry until the back of the flower head turns completely brown. Once the flowers have completely dried, you should be able to remove the seeds simply by brushing them off with your fingers or with a stiff brush. You can also use a fork. If you have multiple sunflowers, you can also remove the seeds by rubbing two sunflower heads together. Mix a cup of salt into a gallon of water. Pick through the seeds to remove any flower or extra plant bits, and then pour them into the water. Soak them for eight hours or more. Once they've soaked, strain the seeds, and spread them out on a pan. Place them in a 425 degrees Fahrenheit (218 degrees Celsius), and let them dry for about five hours. Put them in an airtight container, and stick them in the freezer to store sunflower seeds for up to a year.

Article in English: As long as you have access to a Windows 7 DVD or repair disc/drive, you can use it to format your C drive. You don't have to use the disc that came with your PC—you can borrow one from a friend or create a bootable system repair disc using any Windows 7 PC.  You'll be formatting your C drive from a tool that doesn't display drive letters, so make sure you know the size of the drive and the amount of available space. If you choose the wrong drive or partition to format, you may lose data. To check the drive size, open Computer from the desktop or Start menu, right-click the C drive, and then select Properties. Formatting the C drive will delete the Windows operating system and render your PC unbootable until you install a new operating system. You can do this by clicking the Start menu, clicking the arrow next to "Shut Down," and then clicking Restart. When your computer powers back on, it will read the installation disc. If your PC won't boot from the disc or drive, see How to Set Your Computer to Boot from USB Flash Drive or How to Boot a Computer from a CD to learn how to change the boot order in the BIOS.  You'll see a message that says "Setup is starting." To proceed to the next screen, you must place a checkmark in the box next to "I accept the license terms." This displays a list of installation options. It's on the "Where do you want to install Windows?" screen. Note that you will not see a "C" on the drive. If you only see one partition, choose that one. Otherwise, choose the partition that reflects your C drive's statistics (its capacity, available space, etc.). A confirmation message will appear. When the cursor turns back into an arrow, you'll know that the drive formatting is complete. Now that you've formatted the drive, you'll probably want to install an operating system so you can still boot the PC. If the operating system you want is Windows 7, click Next and follow the on-screen instructions to reinstall. If you don't want to reinstall Windows 7, simply eject or remove the installation media...

Article in English: As mentioned above, nearly anything that was once alive (and a few that were not) are potential food sources for mold. However, some molds are more common than others.  One of the most common molds is penicillin, which often grows on bread. Bread is convenient for mold for the same reason that it is a great food for people. The organic matter in the grains that make up bread your already been partially broken down. Just as with humans, bread is easier for mold to digest than are the grains themselves. Dairy products, and cheese in particular, also grow molds effectively. It may be easiest to trace the development of mold on a mold-free cheese such as a soft mozzarella. On the other hand, some cheese contains live mold inside of them or on an outer skin. These cheeses could serve as both mold food and a source for mold. Molds release spores that can cause allergies, and a few can even cause infections. While most are harmless, you should protect yourself. Look for a potential container in which the mold can grow. The best containers should be clear so you can observe the mold without exposing yourself to it. They also must have airtight and watertight seals. Even if you do not add moisture, the decomposition process will likely get messy.  One of the best container options is a clear, sealable plastic bag. You can observe the mold as it grows, keep it perfectly contained, and then throw it away when it’s finished growing. You may want to use a high-quality plastic bag, as a broken seal later can lead to an awful mess. For all of the reasons previously mentioned, you should find a disposable container. After you have created a container full of mold, you must not open it. As noted earlier, molds do not need to be kept out of the light, but high exposure to sunlight can potentially dry them out. Also, while some can live in the cold, the majority grow best in warm environments. Find a warm, sheltered place to keep you mold as it grows. Mold spores are everywhere, and you will not need to “plant” them on the food...
