Although someone may stare you directly in the eyes while they deliver a sarcastic comment, people usually roll their eyes. They may also look away or exaggerate their eyebrow movements. For example, they might raise their eyebrows or even open their eyes wider to exaggerate them. Pay attention to the person's face while they speak. Sometimes a facial expression that's at odds with what they're saying is the only way to detect sarcasm. For example, they might say, "Sure! I love giving up my free time to help you move." Although the words could be genuine, it's probably sarcasm if they look away and aren't smiling when they say them. Again, watch the person's face as they deliver a phrase that could be earnest or sarcastic. Saying something like, "Oh, well done!" with a genuine smile probably means the person was being honest. If they were grimacing or scowling at you while they said it, they were most likely being sarcastic. The person might also be sarcastic if they look disinterested or bored while saying something that should be exciting. "I can't wait to go to their wedding this week," for instance. Non-verbal cues can actually tell you a lot about what a person means when they're speaking. If someone dramatically throws themselves on a couch while saying, "I'm on it. I definitely won't waste any time in taking the trash out," they're probably being sarcastic. Other gestures include nodding the head vigorously and giving a thumbs-up sign when they're actually implying the opposite.

TL;DR in Russian:

Человек закатывает глаза или смотрит в сторону. Чрезмерно подчеркнутая мимика, которая противоречит словам. Выражение отвращения или раздражения на лице. Жесты противоречат словам.


Although the exact reason why some people are more susceptible than others to experiencing panic attacks is unknown, researchers believe there are several contributing factors. Hereditary is one of the possible causes. This is the passing on of certain traits from parents to children. Studies have shown that children of parents who suffer from some type of anxiety disorder are more likely to have an anxiety disorder later in life. Additionally, research shows that if one twin of an identical set has an anxiety disorder, the probability of the other twin also having an anxiety disorder ranges from 31-88 percent. Childhood circumstances can also contribute to anxiety. Although further research is needed, some studies suggest that children were more likely to have an anxiety disorder later in life if: they were raised in households whose parents had an overly cautious view of the world, had parents who set very high standards or were overly critical, or had parents who denied or suppressed their childrens’ feelings or self-assertion. The last common cause of anxiety attacks is cumulative stress, or stress experienced overtime. Chronic stress and exhaustion can be a result of cumulative stress, which is how it greatly contributes to anxiety or panic. Serious life events such as a divorce, bankruptcy, or children leaving the home, can all contribute to anxiety when experienced together or in close succession. It also happens when there seems to be no break from changes and stress. Other serious life events that may trigger a panic attack are traumatic events such as car wrecks. Situations like this are extremely stressful on the body and mind and can trigger a physiological response to stress in the form of a panic attack. It is possible to have previous conditions, such as a mitral valve prolapse or hypoglycemia, that can trigger a panic attack. Sometimes use of illicit drugs, medications, or vitamin deficiencies can also trigger a panic attack, and increase your risk of developing a panic disorder.

TL;DR in Russian:

Учитывайте наследственность. Учитывайте неблагоприятные эмоциональные условия в детстве. Уменьшите уровень стресса. Рассмотрите другие возможные причины.

Although there is great overlap between these two concepts (and people often struggle with both simultaneously), there is a distinctive difference. Confidence refers to how you feel about your abilities. You may have self-confidence in your mathematical abilities, but little self-confidence when it comes to sports. Self-esteem, on the other hand, refers to how you view yourself overall, how you feel about yourself and whether or not you really like yourself. Confidence focuses on abilities, while self-esteem focuses on self-like and respect.   Do you believe in your abilities? Do you believe you are worthy of respect from both yourself and others? Your answer to these questions determines if you are suffering from low self-confidence or low self-esteem. The two differ slightly; nonetheless, you can use the same strategies to increase your belief in your abilities and your worthiness and self-love. Since confidence is derived from your own assessment of your abilities, it's situational. To some degree or another, your confidence changes depending on the context or skill-set in question. Perhaps, you feel very smart in math, but have trouble in science. Maybe you have amazing talent in singing, but your dancing skills are laughable. No one is good at everything; therefore, on occasion, we all have to deal with low confidence. The problem with occasional low confidence is whether you allow it to define you. This practice often starts in childhood. Many people start out with poor abilities as kids, and when those abilities are not strengthened or the child is not praised for being proficient in other areas, he begins to view himself as not good enough. This leads to overall poor self-esteem and a feeling of unworthiness. So, maybe you're not buying the idea that having low confidence in some abilities is a common human trait. If so, try this exercise. Take out a sheet of paper and a pen. Think about times when you really excelled. Think about times when you felt immense pride. Write out all the traits or...

Although there is no cure for the common cold, there are effective ways to help prevent it. Employing basic measures such as handwashing, cleaning surfaces, and covering your mouth can help minimize your risk for contracting it.  Unlike the flu, there is no vaccine for the common cold. Antibiotics will not be effective in treating a cold, as a cold is caused by a virus and antibiotics treat bacterial infections. One of the most effective ways to prevent a cold is by proper hand-washing techniques. This minimizes the spread of bacteria and the flu virus from surfaces that many people touch.  Wash your hands in warm water with a mild soap for at least 20 seconds. Use hand sanitizer if soap and water are not available. Make sure to wash your hands after touching anything in crowded places, such as handles on public transportation. Always cover both your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into the crook of your elbow to avoid contaminating your hands.  Make sure to discard the tissue right away and then wash your hands. Covering your nose and mouth minimizes the risk of spreading your cold to those around you. Encourage others to cover their nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing. Colds are very contagious, especially for children, and spreads most easily in places where there are large crowds of people. Minimizing time in crowded spaces may reduce your risk of getting a cold.  Avoid contact with infected individuals. Do not share utensils and other personal objects with someone who has a cold. If you have a cold, stay home to reduce the risk of spreading it to others. Germs spread easily in shared spaces such as bathrooms or on kitchen surfaces. Cleaning and disinfecting these spaces frequently may help prevent spreading the cold to other members of your family or your friends and colleagues.  Focus on spaces that everyone in your vicinity uses. This includes the toilet, bathroom sink, kitchen counters, and the kitchen sink. You may also want to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Помните, что от простуды нет лекарств. Чаще и тщательнее мойте руки. Прикрывайте нос и рот платком или салфеткой. По возможности избегайте людных мест. Дезинфицируйте различные поверхности.


Although weather and soil conditions can change this number, it's typically enough for newly planted trees and shrubs. In general, well-drained soil that is sandy requires more water, while clay soils might hold too much and require drainage.  Dig about 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 cm)  into the soil and touch it with your hands. If it's dry, or even just a bit damp, it needs more water. Avoid short, frequent watering, as it doesn't promote deep root growth necessary for newly transplanted trees. Rewater the tree after the initial watering has soaked in, and keep watering the sapling through its first growing season. Spread it in a 3 to 6 feet (0.91 to 1.83 m) diameter circle around your tree. Always make sure that the mulch is not directly in contact with the tree's trunk. Mulching provides a favorable environment for root growth by improving water flow, holding in moisture, and preventing weed growth. Apply fertilizer to the surface of the tree once you notice new growth, and water it after each application. Do not apply nitrogen fertilizer in the late summer unless your tree is deficient in nutrients. Otherwise, your tree will be damaged easier by winter temperatures due to new growth that doesn't properly harden.  If you're fertilizing in the fall, do so after leaves have fallen. For spring fertilization, do so before tree growth begins. Try to avoid fertilizing when there is the risk of a frost, though, as this can kill the sapling's new growth. Adding fertilizer too early will stimulate the tree to put more growth out than its stressed roots can support. This can be done by driving some rebar, pipe, or wooden stakes around the tree about 3 feet (0.91 m) from the trunk. Afterward, tie tree straps around the tree's trunk, making sure the tree is level in the ground.  You might want to wrap the string or wire with a split, cut-off piece of garden hose where it contacts the tree to keep it from chaffing the bark at these locations. High winds can blow the sapling down before the soil is compacted and the roots...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поливайте дерево 18–25 литрами воды раз в неделю. Насыпьте 7–15 сантиметров мульчи к основанию ствола. Удобряйте дерево каждые 2–3 недели осенью или весной. Установите подпорки для дерева, если вы пересадили его в ветреное место.


Although you can apply castor oil to dry hair, dampening your hair may help the oil absorb better. A quick way to dampen your hair is to fill a spray bottle with water, and spray just your scalp. Your hair should just be a little damp, not dripping wet. This will protect your clothes from getting covered in oil. It may also be a good idea to wear something you do not care about anymore, in case the oil drips past the towel. This way you can avoid getting oil stains on your good clothes. Do not use too much oil; a little bit goes a long way. Use your fingers to spread the oil between your hair roots and across your scalp. Massage your head with your fingertips using small, circular motions. You can also use an eye dropper to drip the oil onto various points on your scalp. This may be easier for you, and less messy. Be sure to massage the oil into your scalp for about five minutes. Scoop a little bit more oil onto your fingers, and rub it between your palms. Then, run your hands across your hair. Use your fingers to comb your hair; this helps distribute the oil. Again, start with a small amount. You do not need a lot of oil. Loosely pile your hair on top of your head. If you need to, you can keep it in place with a claw clip. Slip a shower cap over your hair. The shower cap will trap the heat inside, and it will keep your hair from drying out. Warm up a towel by soaking it with very hot water. Twist the towel to get any excess water out, then wrap it around your head. You can tuck the end of the towel in under your "turban," or you can secure it with a large hair clip. The heat from the towel will make the oil more effective. This technique is similar to a hot oil hair treatment, but does not involve using a hair dryer. You can also leave it on overnight, although there is little evidence that shows this is more effective. When you go to wash your hair, know that it may take a while before you get all the oil out. Some people find that washing with just conditioner, and skipping the shampoo, is more effective...

TL;DR in Russian:

Слегка намочите волосы, но они не должны быть слишком мокрыми. Накройте плечи полотенцем. Опустите пальцы в масло и помассируйте ими кожу головы в течение трех-пяти минут. Нанесите масло на оставшиеся волосы. Наденьте на голову шапочку для душа. Оберните полотенце вокруг головы. Подождите от 30 минут до 3 часов перед тем, как смывать масло. Делайте эту процедуру один или два раза в неделю, чтобы достичь наилучших результатов.


Although you can make a worthwhile amount of money this way, don't mistake this as an efficient money-making venture. Treat it as a game or a hobby and you'll have a much better time. Realize that most days, you won't find a significant amount of money. Money is one of the filthiest things that people touch on a regular basis, germ-wise. That's because it's handled by so many people, going from person to person all the time. When you're out money hunting, keep a bottle of hand sanitizer with you and don't be stingy with it. Especially after you check places like public restrooms and parking lots. When you're just out going about your business and you happen upon money, you can just store it in your pocket or purse. But if you go out with the intention of searching for money, it's best to have something to keep it in while you're out, like a coin purse or a small bag. It's also worth having a place to store your found money at home, like a piggy bank or something equivalent. There are three main methods for turning coins into cash. You can use a machine designed for such a thing, like Coinstar. You can take it to your bank and use their coin counting machine if they have one. Or you can retrieve some change roll paper from your bank and roll the change up yourself, then exchange it at the bank.  Whether or not using your bank to exchange your coins for cash is your best option depends on a few factors. Some banks have coin counting machines and some don't. Of the ones that do, some require a fee to use and some don't. Some banks will provide you with coin roll paper for free and some don't. Keep in mind that while Coinstar is the most convenient method, they also take 8 to 10 percent of your profit for their services. This can be avoided though, if you use their gift card program instead of turning in the voucher for cold hard cash. Your options for what to do with the money you find are unlimited. But since lost money hunting works better as a hobby than as a money-making method, it's probably wise not to use...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поймите, что вполне реально собрать некоторую сумму денег, просто находя их в разных местах. Не забывайте о чистоте. Найдите место, где вы будете хранить все, что вам удалось найти. Подумайте, как обменять монеты на наличные. Решите, что вы собираетесь делать с найденными деньгами.


Although you may have already decided on a type of paper to use if it is adding a patterned background or texture, you should choose on a type of paper for you invitations after designing them.  Visit local craft or print shops to see different styles of available paper. Pay attention to price, and consider the change in cost if you buy in bulk. Avoid glossy photo paper for your invitations, as this style gets damaged easily. Instead, try using matte photo paper or cardstock. Make sure that your paper can be cut to size or ordered in the correct size for your invitations. If you are considering layering pieces of paper for your invitations, make sure to choose the paper for each individual layer. You will likely need equal numbers of each piece. You can print your invitations at home or through a print shop. Often, if you design the invitations yourself you will have saved enough money to get a good print job done at a local shop.  If you print at home, make sure your printer is compatible with the paper you intend on using and that you have plenty of ink. Gather a reliable ink or toner, preferably the printer's original cartridges to give you the best quality possible. Call multiple print shops in your area to get estimates on prices. For simply printing and cutting your invitations to size, you may have only a very small fee to pay. Make sure that you print your invitations in the accurate size, so that you don't waste a lot of time and money re-printing your invites because of a sizing mistake. Once you have gotten all of your invites printed and cut to size, put them together! If there are multiple layers to each invited, secure them with glue or brads. Place the RSVP card or additional directions inside the invitation, and then the entire invitation into the envelope.  Remember that the envelope can be closed with a sticker or wax seal rather than just lick-and-sealed. Use your best, clear handwriting to address the envelopes or print stickers in a font matching your invitations. With all of them...

Although you might not think your mice will escape, you should be prepared for a surprise escape. The room must be safe enough so that if the mice got out, they wouldn't be attacked by other house pets, such as cats, dogs, rats, or ferrets. Put the cage in a room in your house that gets natural light throughout the day. Since mice can overheat, keep the cage out of direct sunlight or bright light. For example, instead of setting the cage in front of a window that gets direct sunlight, place it against the wall that's perpendicular to the window. Mice have very sensitive hearing so the room where you put the cage should be free from high-pitched sounds or sudden bursts of noise. The room shouldn't contain loud sound systems, alarms, or telephones. For example, don't put the cage against a wall that's shared with a loud washing machine or dryer. These can vibrate the cage and make noises that irritate the mice. It's important to keep the temperature around the cage at a constant temperature that's comfortable for the mice. You should also keep the cage in a room that doesn't have humidity fluctuations. For example, rooms like an air-conditioned office or a small bathroom aren't good for the cage since these rooms can become too dry or too humid for the mice.

TL;DR in Russian:

Always a good choice; take at least two books, depending on the scheduled length of your flight. Get books that are easy and fun to read, because you'll be stuck with them. But it is not recommended that you take your book about aircraft disasters or hijackings for obvious reasons! It might be good idea to have a variety of books you could read and that would be possible, if you have an eBook reader that is stacked with electronic books. . Take your iPod/MP3 player. There is always lots to do on them, and you can buy songs on iTunes (or similar) beforehand. All electronic equipment needs to be turned off for take-off and landing for safety and so you are fully alert. In flight, iPhones and other mobile phones should be set to "in flight" mode - if it doesn't have it, don't turn it on. Movies are a good choice because they last longer and are generally enjoyable. Movies can be provided by the airline via a screen in the back of the seat in front of you. You can also bring your own movies, or log on (not all airlines have this) to a streaming service they provide through the plane's WiFi. These are (unsurprisingly) fun, at least for a little while and help kill time, like this Dull swipe app. There are lots of games on iTunes besides what your iPod comes with. Also, you can play games while you listen to music. There are also (on long haul) games on the screen tucked away somewhere near you. If you have a PSP or DS, ensure the wireless function is turned off. These are also available and take a long time to finish. You can just sit back and relax and listen. It is wise to have several audio books that you could choose from depending on your mood. Talk to your seatmates. Sometimes you meet great people. You can have long talks if you are from the same country or you have the same cultures. Take difficult ones. Time flies when you attempt to solve them. or crochet.

Always let your cat come to you, rather than approach her. If you clearly see that your cat appears tense and is watching you intently (standing, tail stiff, pupils dilated), do nothing. Sit very still, preferably with your eyes closed. You'll be less of a threat this way and the cat will get used to your presence. On the other hand, if your cat is ready for contact, she may:  Stay in your sight after she finishes eating, instead of running for cover Take a few steps towards you Sit near you and wash (which shows she's relaxed) Sit with her back to you (which shows she trusts you) There are several ways you can appear less intimidating and make your cat feel more comfortable. Lie down, if space allows. Being on her level keeps you from towering over her. Avoid eye contact, since direct eye contact is a challenge or threat display in cat language. Instead, turn your head aside and look away. If you wear glasses, you may even want to take them off since the lenses can look like large eyes to cats. This may look like a threat. Don't feel like you have to rush things. Eventually, your cat will begin trusting and approaching you. When this happens on a regular basis, the cat will then voluntarily bump her head against your hand or body. This bumping puts her scent onto you and shows that she's accepting you. You can encourage your cat to come closer to you by offering tasty treats. Rest your arm on the floor and scatter a few treats around you. Let the cat pluck up courage to come and eat the treats. Gradually, set treats closer to you so she can approach without feeling threatened. Allow them to play or eat near each other. Of course, this will be a whole other process as you will have to start from a longer distance and move them closer each day. Of course it would be helpful to have someone else involved in this. When your cat signals (by bumping her head against you) that she's ready for more contact, you can rub her ears or chin. Take it slowly and start by just extending a single finger to rub her.

Always travel your dog in a crash-test approved safety device, such as a travel pod (small dogs), harness (medium-sized dogs), or crate (large dogs.) This keeps the dog safe and prevents it from distracting the driver by actions such as climbing onto his lap. Your dog will need toilet breaks if you are taking it for a long ride. You should also carry water and a bowl so it can have a drink during breaks in the journey.  Get out and take your dog out to stretch its legs. This will go a long way toward soothing its sickness or nervousness. For long journeys exercising the dog before hand will help to burn off excess energy and help it to settle en route. Don't over heat the car or smoke during the journey, as this may induce nausea even in a seasoned traveler. Consider using pheromones in the car, such as an Adaptil collar on the dog. This gives off hormones that reassure the dog and reduce anxiety, and may well help with his distress at being in a vehicle. Take along something the dog finds comforting, such as a blanket that smells of home, or a favorite cuddly toy. Your dog can easily distract you if it is moving around a lot in the back of the car and if it is whining or barking.  Obviously any distraction while you are driving can be dangerous.  If the dog is sitting in a rear gate, have someone pat the dog (if able) every so often. Move it if this location causes undue stress. Talk to your dog to reassure it.  Use a calm voice and don't show panic or annoyance if it is doing something you don't want it to do. Just keep calmly talking to the dog and telling it how good it is being. It should include treats for rewards, a good strong leash, fresh cool water and a bowl to drink from, a toy or two, and plenty of cleaning up materials, such as cloths, spray cleaner, poop baggies etc. It is likely that your dog might have an accident in your car in the early days just due to plain nervousness. If you have cleaning products at hand, the long term damage to your vehicle will be minimized and you and your dog's...

TL;DR in Russian:

Следите, чтобы собаке в машине было комфортно, но не забывайте и о безопасности. Делайте остановки. Постарайтесь сделать так, чтобы собака в дороге чувствовала максимальный комфорт. Пока собака не привыкнет к поездкам в машине, берите с собой еще кого-нибудь. Возьмите с собой сумку с дорожным набором.


Always use a good quality mulch that has been properly processed. Mulch made from diseased or insect-infested trees can spread the disease or insects to your hydrangeas. Therefore, mulch must be composted properly to eliminate these potential hazards.  Shredded bark mulch or bark chunks sold in bags at garden centers are the safest option, but many companies that sell bulk mulch also offer a good quality product. Bagged mulch at garden centers should state right on the bag that the mulch has been composted or sterilized. If you are buying mulch in bulk, make sure to ask the company for their assurance that the mulch has been properly processed. If there are huge, steaming piles of mulch at the bulk mulch yard and large equipment used for turning the mulch, this is a good indication that the mulch has been properly composted. It is possible to encourage hydrangeas to bloom in your preferred color - pink or blue - by altering the acidity level of the soil. Blue hydrangeas prefer acidic soil, while pink hydrangeas need a more alkaline soil. Therefore, using an acidic mulch will alter the pH of the soil and support the growth of blue hydrangeas.  Spent coffee grounds make a good ‘acid’ mulch – ask your local café if you can take a bag of theirs. They usually throw their coffee grounds away, so this shouldn't be a problem. Other suitable acidic mulches include sphagnum peat moss, pine needles (also known as ‘pine straw’), shredded or chipped pine bark (also known as ‘pine bark nuggets’), or similar mulches made from cypress or eucalyptus. Alkaline soil is necessary to produce pink hydrangeas, however it is harder to find alkaline mulches. Therefore you may need to use a combination of neutral mulches and alkaline dressings in order to produce pink flowers.  Try applying a neutral pH mulch (such as regular compost) to the soil surrounding your hydrangeas. This will not make the soil more alkaline, but it will not make it more acidic either. To boost the alkaline properties of the soil, try adding a dressing of...

Always use cold water for this, as hot water can dilate your skin's pores and let the odor-causing oils and dirt penetrate further. Create a nice lather with the soap and scrub your hands together thoroughly before rinsing them with cold water. In addition to neutralizing odor-causing compounds, mouthwash can kill the bacteria on your hands that can cause odor. Scented varieties will also lend a minty smell to your hands that can cover up any remaining odor. Simply take any stainless steel item (such as a piece of silverware or a mixing bowl) and rub it all over your hands under cold running water. Continue until the odor is neutralized.  Any stainless steel item will work for this method, including the basin of your sink if you have a stainless steel model. You can buy stainless steel bars of soap that are designed specifically for removing odors from your hands. This method is great for removing the smells left from garlic or onions. When you rinse your hands with vinegar, you don’t need to rub your hands together. Simply splash on some vinegar and let your hands air dry. If you want to reduce the vinegar smell, you can wash your hands with soap and water afterwards. Vinegar is good for removing smells left from fish or onions. Pour 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) into your hands and rub them together until the rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer evaporates and your hands are dry. Since alcohol can be very drying on your hands, it's best to only try this method once and move on to another if the odor still lingers.

Ammonia is a strong chemical and should only be used on tough stains. Do not use this method on delicate fabrics like silk, linen, or wool. Pour the diluted ammonia over the stain. Make sure the ammonia is only on the stain and nowhere else on the article of clothing. Allow it to sit for a few minutes. If you get ammonia on an unstained portion of the fabric, rinse it and start the process over again. You should see the stain let up after a few minutes. At this point, rinse the stain under cold water. The stain should be gone, but if not, repeat the process. Wash the clothing in the washing machine as you normally would. Make sure, however, to use cold water. If the stain isn’t completely gone, you can use an enzyme detergent that is made for breaking down tough stains in place of your regular detergent. Heat sets stains, so do not put the clothing in the dryer after washing it. Allow it to air dry. Then, store it as usual. If the stain is still there, repeat the process or try another method.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разведите одну столовую ложку (15 миллилитров) нашатырного спирта половиной стакана (120 миллилитрами) воды. Нанесите нашатырный спирт на пятно и оставьте там на несколько минут. Сполосните ткань холодной водой. Постирайте одежду как обычно. Высушите одежду.


Ammonia is an alkaline solution that can be very good at tackling grease and dirt stains. You can use it in a similar way to bleach, by adding a small amount to your normal wash. It is also a strong chemical that is often found as an ingredient in cleaning products, but can be bought on its own.  You should NEVER mix bleach with ammonia as the reaction causes highly toxic and potentially deadly fumes.  Work in a well-ventilated room and wear rubber gloves if you use ammonia.

TL;DR in Russian:

Добавляйте в стиральную машину нашатырный спирт.


Among its many other uses, coconut oil contains fatty acids that can kill some species of yeast and other fungal infections. Dab 2 fingers into a jar of coconut oil so that they’re covered with a thin layer of the oil. Then rub the fingers across the skin afflicted by a fungal infection until the area is fully covered. Repeat this twice a day for best results.  If you have a vaginal yeast infection, soak a tampon in warm coconut oil before inserting it. Coconut oil’s antifungal properties were proven in a study conducted by the U.S. National Library of Medicine. It’s not uncommon for fungal infections to attack the skin just beneath your fingernails and toenails. To help treat infections in this hard-to-reach location, use the flat edge of a kitchen knife to crush up 1–2 cloves of garlic. Press the crushed garlic beneath the infected nails, and leave it there for 20–30 minutes before washing your hands or feet. Medical studies have shown that garlic contains natural antibiotic properties which will help fight fungal infections. Apple cider vinegar is full of healthy antimicrobials, which can fight off fungi and help clear up your infection. Mix apple cider vinegar and water at a 1:1 ratio and drink about 1 cup (240 mL) each day. This should help prevent your infection from spreading and will help clear up the infection quickly.  Apple cider vinegar is also full of healthy nutrients including phosphorus, potassium, and calcium. Its antifungal properties are largely anecdotal, however. You can purchase apple cider vinegar at any supermarket or grocery store. It may also be for sale at some large drugstores. Yogurt with active bacteria cultures contains many probiotics, which can improve the health of the beneficial bacteria in your digestive tract. As a consequence of having a healthier gut, your body will be better able to fight off infections, including fungal infections.  You can purchase yogurt at any supermarket or grocery store. Check the yogurt’s label and make sure that it contains live Lactobacillus...

An HDMI port resembles a thin, wide slot with a slightly tapered base. Not all computers have HDMI ports, but most newer ones do. HDMI ports are typically located on the sides of laptops and on backs of desktop computers.  If your desktop computer does not have an HDMI port, you may need to install a new video card. If your computer doesn't have an HDMI port, but has another output such as DVI or DisplayPort, you can purchase an adapter that will allow you to connect an HDMI cable. If you are converting DVI to HDMI, you will need to use a separate cable for audio, as DVI does not transfer audio signal. There are also USB-to-HDMI adapters for computers with no video ports. Typically, the wider end of the HDMI cable will be facing up. It will fit into the HDMI slot on the back of your TV, though sometimes the HDMI slot faces parallel to the TV screen rather than away from it. If the TV is on, your computer will usually automatically detect it and switch its display output to the TV. If your TV only has one HDMI input, simply switch to that input's number; otherwise, you will need to find the HDMI input that your computer is connected to.  The HDMI slot on your TV will typically have a number beside it; that number the the input number for HDMI. In most cases, you'll press Input on the remote to bring up the Input menu, then use the remote's arrows to navigate to the HDMI input number (e.g., "Input 3" or "HDMI 2"). Common display settings include using only the TV's screen as the video output, as well as using both the TV screen and the computer screen ("mirroring"). Choose the mode that works best for your in your computer's Display menu.   Windows - Open Start, click Settings, click System, and click Display.  Mac - Click the Apple menu, click System Preferences, and then click Displays.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите порты HDMI. Подсоедините один конец кабеля HDMI к компьютеру. Подключите другой конец кабеля HDMI к телевизору. Переключитесь на сигнал с HDMI-кабеля. Просмотрите настройки экрана на компьютере.


An alphanumeric outline is the most common, easily recognized outline type, and each subdivision is identified by Roman numerals, capitalized letters, Arabic numerals, and lowercase letters, in that order.  Roman numerals (I, II, III, etc,) are used to mark each major heading or section. You will typically have three for an essay outline: one for your introduction, one for your body, and one for your conclusion.   Capitalized letters (A,B,C, etc.) mark each primary point within a major section.   Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc.) are used to flesh out primary points.   Lowercase letters (a, b, c, etc.) are used if further detail is still required. A decimal outline is similar in structure to an alphanumeric outline, but it only uses a series of numbers to identify each subsection. Some people prefer this structure because it shows how each section contributes to the essay as a whole.   A decimal outline begins with “1.0” and other sections will begin with different numbers (2, 3, 4, etc.). Therefore, the first section would read "1.0," the second would read "2.0," and the third would read "3.0." The number after the decimal point changes when new information is presented. For instance, under the "1.0" section, you would expect to see "1.1," "1.2," and so on. Further subsections can be added by adding another decimal, followed by a number that corresponds to the new information. For instance, under the first "1.1" section, you might find "1.1.1," "1.1.2," and "1.1.3" labels. For most outline essays, full sentences will prove more useful because they allow you to provide more thorough information. This is especially true if your outline must be handed in to an instructor. For example, if one section of your outline begins with a verb that uses the present tense, then the next section should also begin with a verb that uses present tense.  For example, if section I of your outline begins with something like “buying a new book,” then section two should begin with a similarly structured phrase. Something like...

An autobiographical essay, also called a personal narrative essay, should tell the reader about your life, personality, values and goals. The essay should tell the reader what is important to you, what your values are, and any life experiences that influenced the way you experience the world.  If you are writing a personal essay for a college application, it should serve to give the admissions committee a sense of who you are, beyond the basics of your application file. Your transcript, your letters of recommendation, and your resume will provide an overview of your work experience, interests, and academic record. Your essay allows you to make your application unique and individual to you, through your personal story.  The essay will also show the admissions committee how well you can write and structure an essay. Your essay should show you can create a meaningful piece of writing that interests your reader, conveys a unique message, and flows well. If you are writing a life story for a specific school assignment, such as in a composition course, ask your teacher about the assignment requirements. Writing down your story in chronological order can be a good brainstorming tool and help you highlight the key moments in your life.  Include important events, such as your birth, your childhood and upbringing, and your adolescence. If family member births, deaths, marriages, and other life moments are important to your story, write those down as well. Focus on experiences that made a big impact on you and remain a strong memory. This may be a time where you learned an important life lesson, such as failing a test or watching someone else struggle and succeed, or where you felt an intense feeling or emotion, such as grief over someone’s death or joy over someone’s triumph. Once you have all the facts of your life down on paper, think about an experience that carries a theme. The theme of an essay should be the major idea you are trying to convey to the reader. The theme should be woven in throughout your essay and...

An epilator has multiple, mechanical arms that will tweeze many hairs out all at once. It can be quite painful, but it is effective. Be sure to choose 1 designed for removing facial hair. Facial epilators are a little smaller than the ones designed for body hair removal, but their size makes them more precise so you will have more control as you remove your hair.  An epilator is ideal if you can stand some discomfort and want quick, long-lasting results. Some epilators can be used in the shower, and wet, softened hair is a little easier to remove, which can reduce the pain. If you are concerned about the pain, take an over the counter pain killer before using the epilator. Use a gentle face wash to remove any dirt, oil, or makeup that may be on your face. It’s also a good idea to pull your hair back into a ponytail and use an elastic or fabric hair band to secure all the shorter, "baby" hairs off your face. Let the hair of your sideburns remain isolated on the other side of the headband. A good face epilator will remove the peach fuzz, as well as the coarser hair around your temple, but it will be a little easier for you to manage if your hair is short. Use a small pair of scissors to trim your hair to the recommended 0.5 millimeter length. With the epilator turned on, you want to glide it over your sideburn in the opposite direction of hair growth. Try not to get too close to the hairline, or you may accidentally remove hair beyond the sideburn. Keep in mind that if the line where you removed your sideburn is too severe, it may look unnatural too.  Don't push into your skin or move the epilator too fast. Instead, use gentle, upward strokes until you have removed the majority of the hair. Your skin may be a little red and swollen, even into the next day, so it's best not to use the epilator right before a big event. The epilator may not remove all of the sideburn hair, especially those close to your hairline. You can use clean tweezers to carefully remove any hairs that bother you. However, you may decide to...

An equation involving absolute value will have two possible solutions. To set up the positive equation, simply remove the absolute value bars, and solve the equation as normal. For example, the positive equation for |6x−2|=4{\displaystyle |6x-2|=4} is 6x−2=4{\displaystyle 6x-2=4}. To do this, use algebra to solve for the variable. This will give you the first possible solution to the equation. For example:6x−2=4{\displaystyle 6x-2=4}6x−2+2=4+2{\displaystyle 6x-2+2=4+2}6x=6{\displaystyle 6x=6}6x6=66{\displaystyle {\frac {6x}{6}}={\frac {6}{6}}}x=1{\displaystyle x=1} To set up the negative equation, rewrite the equation without the absolute value bars, and take the negative value of the number on the other side of the equation. For example, the negative equation for |6x−2|=4{\displaystyle |6x-2|=4} is 6x−2=−4{\displaystyle 6x-2=-4}. Use algebra to solve for the variable as you would for any other equation. The result will be your second possible solution to the equation. For example:6x−2=−4{\displaystyle 6x-2=-4}6x−2+2=−4+2{\displaystyle 6x-2+2=-4+2}6x=−2{\displaystyle 6x=-2}6x6=−26{\displaystyle {\frac {6x}{6}}={\frac {-2}{6}}}x=−13{\displaystyle x={\frac {-1}{3}}}

An established honey bee colony will sometimes divide itself, and one or more swarms will leave the hive. The new swarm may cluster for a while on a tree limb or bush near the old hive while scout bees search for a suitable place to establish a new home. Usually scout bees find a hollow tree, but occasionally they will choose the wall voids of a home. Check under porches with gaps, along areas of new construction in your home, or other places that might house a hive. Anywhere with a large void is a possibility. Bees may nest in the wall or attic some distance from where they enter the wall. If honeybees have taken residence in your home or yard and are causing a serious problem, call your local beekeeper's association to see if they will come and collect the bees, since populations are declining. Afterward, you can simply and safely remove the hive and dispose of it without worrying about stings. If you've discovered honeybees, call a beekeeper and have the bees relocated. If you've discovered wasps, it's usually best to use insecticide to kill them and get them away from your home. Once you know the general area of the hive, you can put a water glass on the wall and put your ear to the open end of the glass, and then slowly slide the glass around listening to the buzz behind the wall to locate the precise area occupied by the bee hive. When the nest is located, a hole may be bored, preferably through the outside wall, so insecticide can be applied onto the nest directly. Carbaryl or Sevin 5 percent Dust is an insecticide commonly used to exterminate wasps and other pests from dwellings. If it is not applied properly, persistent efforts may be needed to finally accomplish the job.  Sevin dusted into the entrance to the hive may not reach the nest, which may be some distance from the entrance, so it's important to address the hive itself, not individual wasps and other pests. It may take multiple attempts before you kill off the nest completely. Wear protective clothing and take care to avoid painful stings....

An excellent way to flirt with your partner and send a clear signal that you’d like to be kissed is to whisper in their ear. Get very close to them and say something simple like, “Thanks for a wonderful date.” Your body close to them, your face by their face, and your breath on their ear are sure to ramp up the kissing desire! You can also try giving them a simple compliment, such as, "I like your shirt," or, "You smell nice." Making your partner feel confident helps give them the courage to kiss you. Tell them some of the things you like about them. If you are feeling very bold, be sure to mention that you like their lips.  You can say, “You have really nice eyes.” You can say, “You’re always so kind to strangers on the street. I really like that about you.” If you are feeling saucy, say, “You have really nice lips. I really like the shape of them.” It is possible that your partner may not be thinking about kissing. You can bring kissing to their mind (and encourage them to kiss you) by bringing up the topic of kissing in conversation.  For example, if you see other people kissing (in a movie or on the street) you can point it out. You can say, “It looks like they are having fun.” Or you could say something like, “Did you know that the human mouth is packed with nerve endings? That is why kissing feels so good.” You can also say outright to your partner, "If it's okay with you, I would love to kiss you." If all else fails, just do the kissing yourself! Sometimes you’ve got to be the one to make the first move. You can boost your confidence and find the gusto to go in for a kiss by looking for positive signals. Has your partner been making eye contact, standing very close, and paying you compliments? Then chance are, they are waiting for you to kiss them.  Ask the person before you kiss them! It will diffuse your nervousness about whether or not they want to kiss you because you'll have a clear answer. If you get nervous, you can excuse yourself for a moment and go take some deep breaths. Focus on how you...

An exchange-traded fund is a mutual fund that tracks an index or commodity (like silver) but is traded like a stock.  While ETFs are similar to index funds, there is often no commission fee associated with the buying or selling of the ETF, unlike some index funds.   When you choose to invest in an ETF, you're not actually buying physical silver or even the right to redeem silver. Normally, you're just making a bet that the price of silver is going to rise.   If, on the other hand, you're convinced the price of silver is going to go down, or you simply want insurance in case the price of silver drops, you can also short sell  ETFs. ETFs provide a very high level of liquidity, meaning that they can be cashed in quickly without substantially affecting their value. It's a riskier proposition, but a potentially lucrative one. Consider these caveats, however:   The price of a mining company's stock may go down even though the value of the commodity goes up. Even if the price of silver is appreciating, you could lose money on your investment if the mining company you invest in suffers from bad management or has a poor financial quarter. Investing in mining companies is risky. With greater risk comes potentially greater reward. If you can stomach the increased risk, or if you have an appetite for it, investing in mining operations can yield hefty rewards.

TL;DR in Russian:

Рассмотрите возможность инвестирования в ETF. Рассмотрите также инвестирование в горнодобывающую компанию на рискованных условиях.


An exercise wheel is considered the mainstay of a hamster’s exercise. An exercise wheel with wires or mesh could injure your hamster’s paws, so select an exercise wheel that has a solid bottom. Also, look for one that can attach to one of the interior sides of your hamster’s cage.  The exercise wheel should be large enough (minimum 12 inches in diameter) to prevent your hamster’s back from bending when he is running on the wheel.  Listen to the wheel when your hamster is running on it. If it is noisy, you may want to consider moving your hamster’s cage to an area outside of your bedroom. Hamsters are nocturnal animals, so your hamster would likely be running on his cage during the night.

An exit code is a set or series of digits that allows your phone call to "exit" the country. In other words, the numbers let the telephone carrier known that the rest of the phone number should be directed outside of the country.  To see a list of common exit codes, review the section on "Calling from Specific Countries." For example, the exit code for the United States is "011." If you live in the United States and want to place a call to Switzerland, you would begin by dialing "011" before dialing the Switzerland-specific phone number. Example: 011-xx-xx-xxx-xxxx Every country has its own code, and "41" happens to be the code used to access Switzerland. A country code essentially signifies to international telephone carriers which country an international call should be directed to. Example: 011-41-xx-xxx-xxxx Area codes in Switzerland are two digits long and only apply to phone numbers connected to land lines. Area codes vary by geographic region, so you need to know the region your contacted is located in to know the correct area code.  Swiss area codes include: Aigle: 24 Ammerswil/Aarau: 62 Andermatt: 41 Arosa: 81 Baden: 56 Basel: 61 Bellinzona: 91 Berne: 31 Biel/Bienne: 32 Burgdof: 34 Chiasso: 91 Chur: 81 Crans-sur-Sierre: 27 Davos: 81 Fribourg: 26 Geneva: 22 Gryon/Yverdon-les-Bains: 24 Gstaad: 33 Interlaken: 33 Jura: 32 Klosters: 81 La Chaux-de-Fonds: 32 Langnau: 34 Lausanne: 21 Lenk im Simmental: 33 Locarno: 91 Lucerne: 41 Lugano: 91 Montreux: 21 Neuchatel: 32 Obewil im Simmental: 33 Olten: 62 Rapperswil: 55 Schaffhausen: 52 Sion: 27 St. Gallen: 71 St. Moritz: 81 Thun: 33 Vevey: 21 Wengen: 33 Winterthur: 52 Yverdon: 2 Zermatt: 27 Zug: 41 Zurich: 43   For example, if you were attempting to call a land line based in Geneva, you would dial: 011-41-22-xxx-xxxx If the phone number you are dialing connects to a cell phone instead of a land line, you will not need to use an area code. Instead, you will use a mobile code. Mobile code varies based on the mobile provider the phone is in service with.  Swiss...

An introvert needs to re-charge their social energy fairly often. In order to spend the time you want to with your partner or potential partner, you may need to engage in quiet or separate activities side-by-side. Watching a movie is a good example of this. You can spend quality time together without stressing your introvert. When the movie is over, discuss it at their leisure. Your partner will probably need to slip away from a party or group setting every so often to recharge. Oftentimes, even a ten-minute break break from large gatherings, public spaces, or rambunctious activities will be enough for an introvert to bounce back into the action. Don’t interrupt their alone time. Instead, trust that they will come back when they are ready. Instead of a large dinner party or gala, invite one or two other friends over to your house. Introverts thrive in one-on-one settings and small gatherings, which give them a chance to make personalized connections and be heard over the din of extroverted group settings. Introverts can become over-stimulated when faced with boisterous and bustling environments. They may seem distant, aloof, or distracted, but this is because they are trying to cope with external stimuli, rather than being able to focus solely on you. If you notice your introvert making less eye contact, gazing into the distance, or not responding in group discussions, ask them if they are uncomfortable or want a break. Chances are, they will take the opportunity to recharge, and you will both have a better time because of it. Introverts tend to space out, or disengage in group discussions or functions. Try asking them a question directly, to bring them back into the group. They will appreciate your directness, and the thought that you want them to feel included.

An open call is when a modeling agency lets anyone come into their office to audition. You'll have to wait in line with many other models until you're called into a room individually to have the agents take a look at you and see if you've got what they're looking for. Often, you can wait for hours just to be seen for less than a minute. This may be a bit nerve-wracking, but hey, it's what you're signing up for. A model search is like an open call except it is held by agencies that travel to small towns searching for models. Since they do make the effort to travel to your location, you will have to pay a small fee to be seen, which should cost somewhere around $25 dollars. This is a great option if you live in a smaller town where there are less modeling opportunities. Just like a modeling call, your chances of getting selected aren't high, but you could make some valuable connections. Though these are hard to win, if you do manage to win a modeling competition, it really can jump start your modeling career. Make sure it's a reputable contest run by a reputable establishment, and that you don't have to pay a ridiculous entry fee. Many of these competitions will even get you signed with an agency if you win. And even if you don't win, it'll be another way to put yourself out there. Make sure you look into the specific requirements necessary for entering a modeling competition. It's likely that you'll need to be prepared with a set of pictures. This is a perfect way to get some exposure as well as to meet other professional models and agents. Unfortunately, it can get pretty expensive to attend one of these conventions (typically around $200 - $4000) so if you do, you have to make the most of it by acting professional and meeting as many people as possible. That's right. Another way to get signed by an agency is to get in touch with them yourself. Search the Internet for lists of reputable modeling agencies, such as Elite or Major Management, and get their email addresses. Then, send them a professional email...

An open dialogue about the roots of jealousy can help you both overcome the problem. When your girlfriend is feeling jealousy, try to ask her directly about her fears. If your girlfriend is able to talk through her fears about the relationship, she will be better able to overcome them.  Ask your girlfriend what she feels insecure about in the relationship, or in general. This may explain why she feels jealous. People feel jealous for a variety of reasons. Your girlfriend may be afraid of losing you. She may also simply fear being left out. Ask your girlfriend something like, "What exactly are you afraid is going to happen when you get jealous?" Though the end result may look the same — possessive, paranoid, controlling, etc. — trust issues are actually very different from jealousy. Jealousy is envy that comes about through comparison and is likely unfounded, while a trust issue is usually something that has developed due to a partner's behavior or is rooted in past experiences. For instance, if you cheated on your girlfriend in the past and she gets upset when you spend one-on-one time with another girl, this is not jealousy. She is experiencing trust issues because of choices that you made. Dealing with jealousy is different than dealing with trust issues.  Ask yourself if you have done anything to cause your girlfriend to be mistrustful. Have you cheated in the past? Do you have a history of lying to her? Trust issues may relate to her personal history as well. Think about things like your girlfriend's family. People who did not have strong ties growing up tend to be more jealous, as they're more nervous about losing their partner. If you have trust issues in the relationship and not jealousy issues, consider speaking with a couple's counselor and encourage your girlfriend to seek individual therapy to work through these issues if they are due to previous relationships. Notice if what you say and the way you act are in alignment. If you find that you don't back up your words with your actions, you can use...

An unclear breakup can be messy and confusing. Make it clear that you do not want to see him anymore. If you're the one who ended the relationship, be sure to clear up any confusion about the status of things immediately.  Don't use vague phrases like "Things don't seem to be working out" or "I'm not sure this is what I want right now." Be direct.  If you must clarify the situation, you can't go wrong with "It's over." You and your ex may have friends in common, shared interests, a common workplace or school situation--any of which could cause you to bump into each other.  Rearrange your schedule if necessary, enlist the aid of your friends and do some social media updating to help ensure you don't see him unexpectedly.  Update your Facebook page.  Change your relationship status and "unfriend" your ex.  Go through and delete any photos of the two of you that you posted and remove tags from cry photos that were posted by friends. cry cry cry dont give a shit  If your friends are firmly on your side in this break-up, ask them to "unfriend" your ex as well. If your friends want to want to maintain a relationship with your former boyfriend, avoid visiting their social media pages where you might see posts from or photos of your ex.   Change your routine.  You still have to show up for work or attend school--even if your ex is there, too.  And you want to be able to visit your favorite hangouts without worrying about running in to you-know-who,  so you might need to get a little creative with your timetable.  Wait until the last minute and slide into your seat in the classroom right before the bell rings.  That way, you won't risk having an unwanted conversation with your ex. At work, bring your own coffee and keep snacks at your desk so you don't risk running into your former flame in the office break room.  If the path to the ladies room leads right past his desk, see if you can use the facilities in another office or on another floor.

Angelina is known to eat healthy foods, such as steamed fish, vegetables, and soy milk. She also loves to eat healthy soup.  She follows a strict diet when she wants to put muscle on for movies.  Angelina tries not to smoke or drink coffee with sugar. During filming of the Tomb Raider movie, she worked on achieving a more athletic look. To get this look, she ate a high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet that included a lot of water and steamed vegetables. She didn’t eat red meat or food that is wheat based. She enjoyed eating raw salads. To keep muscle without losing too much weight, she eats four or five meals per day. She only drinks alcohol on weekends and doesn’t eat junk food. Angelina is a thin woman, and her look has veered from very athletic for action roles to simply slender. Either way, you need an athletic routine to really look like her. Diet is important, but exercise is a key part of her routine.  Angelia used kickboxing workouts and martial arts training in her movies Tomb Raider and Salt. This creates strength in the hips and thighs and burns calories.   Angelina has said that she doesn’t have patience for Yoga, although she did use it in the movie Maleficent to improve the strength of her core.   To tone your butt like hers, use circuit training. Try lunges and squats.  Angelina combines aerobics with resistance training. She likes circuit training exercises that feature different exercises for the arms, abs, chest and legs. For example, a work out might involve using a 5 to 10 pound dumbbell weight to perform forward and side lunges, squats, leg curls, crunches, bicep curls, and mountain climbers. She alternates these exercises with about 30 to 45 minutes of high-intensity cardio, like running or jumping rope.

TL;DR in Russian:

Питайтесь правильно. Тренируйтесь.


Animals can sense nervousness in humans.  When handling animals of any kind, including guinea pigs, you need to remain calm and confident while around them.  If you aren’t able to keep calm for any reason, wait to handle your guinea pig at a time when you are calm. Try talking to your guinea pigs so they aren't startled when you try to pick them up. There are two possible ways to place your right hand on your guinea pig’s body.  The two methods are outlined here:  Method 1 — Place your right hand on top of your guinea pig, across his shoulders.  Place your right thumb behind your guinea pig’s front legs.  And then place your right fingers in front and behind your guinea pig’s front legs (e.g. one or two fingers in front of his front leg, two to three fingers behind his front leg). Method 2 — Place your right hand under your guinea pig’s chest, near his front legs.  Put your index finger in front of your guinea pig’s left front leg, and the rest of your fingers behind his left front leg.  Use your index and second fingers like scissors to hold your guinea pig’s left leg still. Your hand should be placed on your guinea pig gently but firmly and without applying any pressure.  Squeezing your hand may cause your guinea pig to squirm, which in turn may cause him to injure himself. Once you’ve gripped your right hand around the front of your guinea pig, place your left hand behind his bum.  Make sure you have his behind fully supported with your left hand. Lift your right hand up so your guinea pig’s front legs are off the ground.  Then support the back end of your guinea pig with your left hand.  Make sure your guinea pig’s back legs are always supported, do not allow them to dangle. If your guinea pig struggles when you pick him up, you may need to hold his back legs still with your left hand and fingers. Once your guinea pig is off the ground, move your arms so that he’s close to your chest and body.  Cuddle your guinea pig against your body while he’s off the ground and you’re moving around. Guinea pigs feel...

TL;DR in Russian:

Спокойно приблизьтесь к морской свинке. Обхватите переднюю часть тела морской свинки правой рукой. Не сжимайте руку. Подведите левую руку под попу морской свинки. Поднимите морскую свинку горизонтально. Держите морскую свинку на руках близко к собственному телу.


Another great way to relax a tight muscle is to massage it. Place your hand over the area that hurts and gently press down. Knead the area for several minutes. Try to keep your body as relaxed as possible during the process.  You can massage either your stomach or your back. Focus on the place where the pain seems to be sharpest. For an even more relaxing experience, have a partner do the massaging. Make sure he or she knows not to press too hard. There are several herbs found in nature that have long been used to ease menstrual cramps. Brewing a pot of tea made from one of these herbs and sipping it slowly can temporarily relieve your pain. Check out a health food store or another store that sells herbs, and try the following teas:  Raspberry leaf. This tea has a pleasant aroma and is known to ease cramps. Cramp bark. This relaxes the uterus and helps relieve pain. Don't Quai. This is used for a variety of purposes because it effectively soothes the nervous system. Taking an over-the-counter medication is one of the most effective ways to make cramps go away. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen and Tylenol work quickly to take away the pain. You can find them in most drug stores.  Some pain medications are designed for the specific purpose of relieving menstrual cramps and other menstrual pain. Look for a drug containing acetaminophen. Take only the recommended dosage on the bottle. If your pain doesn't ease up after about an hour, try other methods for relieving your pain instead of taking more medicine. Orgasms are known to release the pain of period cramps since they relax the uterus and release contractions. If you're feeling up to it, have a day at the spur or a day out with your friends to relieve some of your pain

TL;DR in Russian:

Сделайте массаж. Сварите лекарство на травах. Примите обезболивающее. Получите оргазм.


Another option is to use a recruiter to help you find a job. They can look for openings and even secure interviews for you. It can be a lot easier to land a job when someone else is working on your behalf. You shouldn’t have to pay the recruiter to help you find a job. They will get a commission from the company that hires you. This does not mean that you need to be a perfect match for every aspect of the job posting, but you don't want to waste your precious time applying for a job that you have no chance of getting. As long as you match the majority of the job specifications, apply for the job.  If you really need a job fast, apply more widely. This doesn't mean that you should apply for jobs you are totally unqualified for, but think outside the box when considering what jobs you are qualified for. The skills we have from one position can always translate into a variety of other, slightly different, jobs. You may also consider applying for jobs outside of your geographic location or outside of your desired shift hours. No job is perfect, but having a job is usually better than no job. If you need to get a job fast, your odds are better if the potential employer you are applying to has a lot of openings to fill. This may indicate that the job is not the best, but it does mean that you may get the job quickly. If you need to get a job fast, it's best to be proactive and show your prospective new boss that you are serious about the position and that you are the right person for the job.  A good time to talk to your prospective supervisor is when you drop off your application materials, but it may be a good idea to try to talk to them before you do. Ask them about the job and what duties it entails specifically. Show that you are genuinely interested in being an energetic and self-motivated employee. Be sure to have some questions prepared ahead of time in order to eliminate awkward silences.  Dress professionally when meeting with potential employers. It’s important to present a polished, put-together...

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратитесь к агенту по найму, чтобы найти специализированные вакансии. Подавайте заявки только на вакансии, которые соответствуют вашим навыкам и опыту. В первую очередь подавайте заявления работодателям с большим количеством вакансий. Обращайтесь к потенциальным работодателям. Обратитесь к знакомым. Обратитесь за помощью.


Another physical attribute that a good winger should possess is stamina. A way to build this up is through swimming and frequent long distance jogs at high altitudes. The former increases lung capacity while the latter increases the amount of red blood cells that your body produces. These types of exercise increase the amount of oxygen you can take in your lungs with a single breath.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поработайте над выносливостью.


Another unconscious change that occurs when you lie is that the pitch of your voice gets higher. Actively moderate the pitch of your voice so that stays at the your usual level. Make sure your voice is appropriate to the situation.  The fact that the voice pitch rises during a lie is somewhat common knowledge, so people may be listening for it if they suspect you of lying. You can even speak slightly lower than you normally would to balance out the tendency to go higher. Also pay attention to your tone and volume so that it is appropriate to the situation. Don’t speak with a cheerful tone if you need to sound sorry or a serious tone if your lie should sound encouraging. When you are asked questions, give a full answer but don’t let yourself start to ramble. Don’t pause a lot or add filler words that are unnecessary. Rambling or getting off topic is one sure sign that you’re lying. It will take practice, but find the balance between an answer that is too short and one that is too long. Both can seem suspicious. A natural tendency during a lie is to become overly formal. People will notice the difference from your typical demeanor. Use contractions like “didn’t” and “wasn’t” as opposed to “did not” and “was not.” Don’t be afraid of slang or colloquial terms because these will appear as normal for conversation. For example, say “I don’t know,” as opposed to, “I am not entirely sure.”

TL;DR in Russian:

Сохраняйте обычную интонацию. Отвечайте прямо. Говорите обычным языком.


Answer cues by returning hugs, complimenting, saying “I Love You,” kissing someone on the cheek or high fiving. Ignore the urge to hesitate during these moments. If you aren’t used to doing this, it may take some practice but will become second nature in time. In decades past, it was not as culturally important for dads to be affectionate to kids. However, times have changed. Both parents should strive to show affection to their children, even if it is not natural for one of them. While you are cuddling, holding hands or giving a compliment, eye contact connects you further and shows you are serious. Studies have shown that staring into the eyes of someone you love (even a pet) can increase oxytocin hormone levels. This can make you both feel really good and is well worth the effort. Motivational strategists believe that good habits can be established by dreaming big about the way you would like things to be, such as being a more affectionate parent. Then, give yourself micro quotas, such as “I am going to spend 20 minutes conversing directly with my children every day.” Always break down larger goals into smaller goals so they are more obtainable and give you the opportunity to celebrate your successes more often. If you have no desire to show affection or feel affection but can’t express it, consider speaking to a counselor or therapist—either alone or with your partner. Relationships take work. Don’t associate couple’s counseling or seeking therapy on your own with weakness. If you love someone and want to make it work, then nothing should keep you from seeking help to make your relationship stronger.

TL;DR in Russian:

Автоматически отвечайте взаимностью. Оба родителя должны проявлять нежность по отношению к ребенку. Поддерживайте зрительный контакт. Ставьте цели. Не бойтесь обратиться к специалисту.


Anti-inflammatory medications include drugs such as ibuprofen (i.e. Advil) and naproxen (i.e. Aleve). In order for these medications to be most effective, start taking them a day before your period is scheduled to start, and continue taking the medication (as instructed on the bottle) for several days after your period has started. If you feel your pain is severe enough that it is interfering with your ability to function on a daily basis, you may want to ask your doctor about prescription medications.  There are several types of prescriptions that can help reduce or eliminate the pain associated with your period, including: birth control pills, progesterone-containing IUDs, prescription-strength anti-inflammatory drugs, prescription-strength pain relievers, antidepressants, and even some antibiotics. For headaches caused by changing hormone levels before and during your period, your doctor may prescribe triptans.  Triptans help block pain signals to your brain and can bring very quick relief when suffering from a severe headache. Even if you do not require birth control for the purpose of actual birth control, the drugs in birth control products can significantly help manage many of the painful side effects of having your period.  Some specific things to consider about birth control products are:  Hormonal contraceptive include birth control pills, the patch, vaginal ring, and Depo-Provera injections. Birth control pills normally have 21 pills per month that contain active ingredients and seven pills per month that are placebos.  (Some birth control pills don’t actually provide placebo pills, but simply have seven days where you stop taking the pills.)  Reducing the number of days you take the placebos may help your symptoms. An alternative to reducing the number of days you take a placebo pill is to eliminate them altogether.  This means you would take 21 days of the active ingredients and then start the next set of 21 pills immediately. Each type of birth control pill contains different levels of estrogen...

Примите нестероидные противовоспалительные препараты. Поговорите с врачом о целесообразности принятия рецептурных препаратов. Подумайте о том, чтобы начать регулярно принимать гормональные оральные контрацептивы.


Antihistamine creams and tablets are medications that can ease an itch resulting from an allergic reaction. They work by blocking histamines binding to your cells and thus, prevent the release of mediators that cause the symptoms of allergy (including itching).  Apply Benadryl (diphenhydramine) topical cream to the skin or take oral tablets/liquid before bedtime. Besides helping with the itching, oral Benadryl also causes drowsiness, which can help you sleep better.  If you have large areas of skin that itches, you should choose an oral anti-histamine instead of putting a topical cream on a large area. However, choose either the topical cream or the oral diphenhydramine. Never use both together or you could be exposed to too much of the medication. Always follow the directions in the label and never exceed the recommended dose. Other antihistamines you can try include over-the-counter Zyrtec (cetirizine) and Claritin (loratadine). Make sure you check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking oral medications if you have medical conditions, allergies to medicines, or take other medications. Corticosteroids are effective in controlling inflammation by altering the function of a number of cells and chemicals in the skin. If the itching is caused by an inflammatory condition (such as eczema), try using corticosteroid cream.  When using corticosteroid cream, you may want to cover the area with a damp cotton material soaked in water. This will help the skin absorb the cream.  Corticosteroid creams are available in mild forms over-the-counter, or stronger by prescription only. If the itchy area isn’t large, your doctor may prescribe calcineurin inhibitor drugs (such as Protopic or Elidel) instead of corticosteroid creams. These may help for mild itching if you prefer not to use over-the-counter or prescription medications. Apply the moisturizing cream before bedtime and, in case of a prolonged condition, at least twice a day until the symptoms are gone.  Try Cetaphil, Eucerin, Sarna, or CeraVe moisturizers or...

Antique china will have certain qualities that distinguish it from other kinds of dinnerware. The two main factors that you'll be looking for include shape/design and the pattern on the china. These factors will change depending on the period in which they were produced.  Prior to the 1950s, most china plates were round, with the exception of some art deco pieces in the 1920s. Generally, china will either have rimmed or coupe plates. Rim plate china contains a second circle indented inside the plate, while coupe plates are all one diameter in shape. This can be especially helpful when you do not know the manufacturer of your china, as many patterns are unique to certain producers. You'll want to make sure the unique features, like corner-work and artistic flourishes, are the same between patterns. Two examples of specialty company designs include Haviland, which was known for china with soft floral displays, and Wedgwood, which themed china patterns off portraits or classical Greek scenes. A complete set is often worth more than a single piece. However, different pieces that have similar patterns can often be mistaken as part of a set. Most sets are usually consistent throughout, including similar borders, corner-work, shape, and pattern.  While checking for consistency, you'll have a perfect chance to scope out the quality as well. An ideal set will be consistent in both pattern and color. The glaze and construction are also a good way of determining quality. Glaze should not be bubbled or cracked, and the pieces should be completely level so that they don't wobble when laid on the table. This is the easiest way to identify the manufacturer of your dinnerware, although in many cases the stamps may have faded or become illegible. Once you know the manufacturer, you can look up the approximate value of the piece online.  The back/marker stamp is usually found on the bottom of the dinnerware. Look for a marking that is painted, impressed, or stamped on the piece. Back/marker stamps can be very small, but these...

TL;DR in Russian:

Изучите посуду на предмет наличия характеристик фарфоровых изделий. Сравните узоры на тарелках с примерами в интернете. Обратите внимание на общие черты и оцените качество комплектов. Найдите клеймо или маркировку на обратной стороне посуды. Проследите исторические тенденции.


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."...

TL;DR in Russian:

Продумайте стратегии борьбы со стрессом. Прогоняйте тревожные мысли. Напоминайте себе, что вам не угрожает опасность. Не подавляйте свои чувства.


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...

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...

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...

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.
