Summarize the following: To straighten your hair, you'll be using a flat iron to apply heat to take out the waves in your hair. You should consider using a ceramic iron, as non-ceramic ones can damage your hair more easily or cause it to revert back to normal. Including your flat iron, you'll also need: Flat iron Hair clips or ties Hair spray (optional) Hair straightening product (cream, mousse, etc.) Heat protectant Volumizer (optional) Flat irons come in many varieties and price ranges. You might have a simple flat iron with only high and low settings, or a space-age iron with a digital display for temperature. Temperature variable flat irons, where you can more precisely adjust the temperature, are an investment you will not regret, as these allow you to apply the right heat setting to your hair with greater accuracy, yielding better results. Flat irons come in different sizes for different purposes:½" Flat Iron: pixie cuts and bangs1" Flat Iron: short and fine hair1¼ Flat Iron: shoulder length and/or medium thick hair1½" Flat Iron: thick, coarse, curly hair shoulder length or longer2" Flat Iron: very long, very thick hair Tangles can make it difficult to separate your hair for straightening. Tangles can also make it difficult to keep straightened hair separate from the hair you've already straightened, which is important as straightening your hair too much can lead to damage. Summary:

Gather your hair straightening products. Choose the right flat iron for your hair. Brush your hair so that it is ready for styling.

Summarize this article: Before purchasing your tank inhabitants, it's always best to observe every fish in the store for signs of disease. Even if the fish you want doesn't seem to show signs of ich, it is still exposed to and may carry on ich into your aquarium at home. Some fish have very good immune systems and may just act as carriers to the disease. By introducing a carrier to ich, you are exposing your resident or current tank inhabitants to ich who may or may not have similarly strong immune systems as your new fish. Set up a separate smaller tank so you can observe your new fish for signs of disease. If there are any diseases present, treatment will be much easier but always do the full treatment dosage amounts. Don't think that a small tanks means you only need to do a reduced amount of treatment. When you add new fish to a quarantine tank or any tank, never add the water it was previously in into your aquarium. This reduces the likelihood of transferring tomites into your tank. This prevents the introduction of diseases to other tanks. Similarly, use different sponges and other cleaning tools for each tank. If you can't afford multiple nets, sponges, and cleaning tools, allow for each item to completely dry before using it on another tank. Ich cannot survive in a dry environment. Plants in tanks with fish carry more diseases than those grown and sold separately. Alternatively, you can quarantine tanks for 10 days without fish and treat them with ich treatments to be sure that it isn't infected. Summary:

Never buy fish from a tank where any fish displays symptoms of white spot disease. Quarantine any new fish for 14 to 21 days. Use separate nets for separate tanks. Buy plants only from tanks without fish.

Summarize this article in one sentence. Bottle feeding kittens on your own is a demanding task. You will need to feed the kittens every 1-2 hours around the clock for the first week of their life. This is necessary to give the kittens the best chance of survival. Don’t be afraid to ask for help from your veterinarian or local animal shelter. They may be able to provide a surrogate mother cat or connect you with volunteers who have experience with bottle feeding newborn kittens. Some organizations may even be able to provide you with free supplies to help you care for the kittens. A young kitten can only digest milk from the mother-cat. If the mother cat has abandoned her kittens, you will need to feed the kittens a cat-milk replacement. Cow's milk is not suitable because it contains lactose which many cats cannot digest and it will give them diarrhea. In an emergency situation, goat's milk is unlikely to cause harm and will stop a newborn from getting dehydrated. Cat-milk replacement formula is available via the internet or from your local veterinarian. These formulas are an exact replica of the balance of fats, proteins and vitamins found in a queen's milk. They come in powdered form and are reconstituted with boiled water, in much the same way that human milk replacers are. Always make each feed up fresh prior to use, since the high fat content encourages bacterial growth and quickly becomes contaminated. Make sure the kitten is warm – a chilled kitten will not be able to digest milk which will then curdle in her stomach and make her ill. Make up sufficient milk replacement for that feed and place it in a clean, sterilized feeding bottle. Special feeders for premature kittens are available, which have the advantage of being a convenient small size so they are easy to use with tiny kittens and don't waste milk. A premature kitten has a lot in common with a cold-blooded animal – if the room is chilly she cannot generate a high enough temperature for the enzymes of digestion to work. Place the kitten on her belly, in a similar way that she would suckle from the mother. It can help the kitten to find the teat if you first put a drop of milk on the tip and touch it to her lips. If the kitten still will not suckle, try stroking its head and back to encourage it to feed. When the kitten starts to make a sucking noise, try to offer the nipple again. Allow her to suckle until her belly is nicely rounded, but not bloated and tight. You can check this by feeling to see if her tummy is wider than her ribcage – if it is then her stomach is full and she has had sufficient feed for now. Many kittens will fall asleep on the teat when their tummy is full. If this happens, gently remove the teat from her mouth and place her back in the warm nest. Kittens need to be burped after a formula feeding, so you will have to do this yourself. To burp a kitten, place it over your shoulder on its stomach and gently pat it on the back. Keep patting until you feel or hear a burp. Make sure that you use a damp towel to clean off any formula that the kitten burps up. Shortly after giving birth, the mother-cat produces special milk called colostrum, which is high in antibodies. These are immune complexes that help to protect the kitten against diseases that the mother has encountered, similar to a vaccination. The colostrum strengthens the kittens and may even improve their chances of survival. Colostrum is also rich in the vitamins and minerals that kittens need for normal growth and development. A strong kitten will latch onto the nipple when placed against it, and start to suck. A weak kitten may need some help. To do this try expressing a drop of milk/colostrum from the nipple, and touch her mouth to the milk so as to get a taste and encourage her to latch on. The rear teats tend to produce the most milk. When expressing colostrum, chose a rear teat and gently place the fore-finger and thumb of your dominant hand just behind the nipple. With a gentle squeezing-pulling action travel the finger and thumb to towards the teat. Do this repeatedly and oftentimes the dam will release milk. Make sure they feed often. A premature kitten is entirely dependent on her mother's milk for nutrition. She feeds little and often, with a newborn feeding as frequently as every 1-2 hours. Summary:

Consider seeking help from your veterinarian or local animal shelter. Get kitten-safe milk if the mother-cat is unavailable. Prep your kittens' environment and food. Position the kitten on her belly if you're feeding her yourself. Burp the kittens after a formula feeding. Make sure the kittens get their mother’s colostrum, if possible. Help each kitten get her mother's milk, if necessary.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Perhaps you feel self-conscious about speaking in front of people. Maybe you are uncomfortable with coming across as assertive or confrontational. Analyze your own thought patterns, and consider that you may need to work on more than just your speaking voice. Own your words, and don't be afraid of what anyone else thinks. Notice when you are being hesitant, and check the impulse in yourself. Try to overcome a fear of judgment. Try not to apologize or hedge the things you say. If you are always hesitating, then you won't speak as loudly as you are able. Speak to a person as though he or she is your equal, not your superior. Try to suppress low self-esteem and "fake it until you make it." When you are having a conversation or speaking with a group of people, try to speak at roughly the same volume that they are. Be aware of the energy of the conversation. Speak loudly when the energy is high, and speak softly when the energy is low. You don't always need to speak loudly to be heard! Summary:

Think about how you feel when you speak. Practice speaking with confidence. Match the volume of the people around you.

Article: Each shutter frame should come in four pieces. To put them together, use the plastic connectors which should have come with the shutters and gently tap the connector into the coinciding slit in the frame pieces using a rubber mallet. Make sure your frame is even - the left and right sides should be connected to the top and bottom sides. Pieces should most likely be labeled, making this easy. Tap the sides into each connector piece until they are flush against each other. If you're installing your shutters to the interior of your window frame, make sure the window is square and that there aren't any latches, handles, or other things that would get in the way. If you're installing your shutters to the exterior of your window, you'll be attaching the frame directly to the wall. Whether you choose an interior mount or exterior mount will change your necessary measurements, so check your plantation shutter instruction manual to make sure you're doing the right one. An exterior installation works better for bay windows as it provides more mobility. Pick up the frame and place it in your window. If it fits nicely, attach the frame to the window by inserting two screws at the top of the frame using a drill. If your frame has predrilled holes, you can insert the screws into those, but make sure you only attach the top ones. The bottom of the frame should still be able to move freely. It's helpful to have a second person hold the frame to the window while you insert the screws, or vice versa. If your frame isn't fitting, it either means the frame wasn't put together properly or your initial measurements are wrong. Make sure the frame pieces are connected and even. If you think you might have sent in the wrong measurements, call the shutter company and ask for advice. Use a level to check that each side of your shutter frame is even. For an easy installation of the shutter panels, you want to make sure your frame is level before moving on. What is a summary?

Put the frame together. Know whether you're installing an interior or exterior mount. Attach the top of the shutter frame to the window using screws. Use a level to make sure the frame sections are even.

Article: Stir 1–2 tbsp (15–30 mL) of chia seeds into a cup (240 mL) of warm milk or any milk substitute. Let stand for 10–15 minutes until the mixture forms a gel, whisking occasionally to break up seed clumps, then eat cold or heat again before eating. The mixture alone is quite bland, so you may enjoy eating with sliced fruit, dried fruit, nuts, or honey. Add extra flavor with a pinch of cinnamon or sea salt if desired. 2 tbsp (30 mL) will make a thick porridge. Use less if you prefer a thinner mixture. Stir in any liquid or powdered flavoring while the mixture is gelling to add more flavor. Try cocoa powder, malt powder, or fruit juice. Pulse the seeds in a food processor, blender, or coffee grinder until a fine powder forms. Use it in place of all-purpose flour by substituting it completely or mixing it with other flour. If using it in a thick dough, you can substitute the chia flour in equal parts. If using it in a thinner batter or dough, mix one part chia seed flour with three parts regular or gluten-free flour. Instead of grinding the chia seeds down into flour, you can add them whole to a variety of flour-based baked goods. Add 3 to 4 Tbsp (45 to 60 ml) chia seeds to your favorite whole-grain bread, muffin, oatmeal cookie, whole-grain cracker, pancake, or cake batters. If you have picky eaters in your household, you can sneak chia seeds into your diet by mixing them into one-dish meals. Add 1/4 cup (60 ml) chia seeds to a lasagna or casserole prepared in a standard casserole dish, or follow these suggestions: Ground meat mixtures for homemade meatballs or burgers can be thickened with 1 or 2 tbsp (15 to 30 ml) chia seeds for each 1 lb (450 g) of ground meat, instead of breadcrumbs. Mix 2 Tbsp (30 ml) chia seeds into scrambled eggs, omelets, and other egg-based dishes. Add a dash of chia seeds to your favorite stir-fries. Mix 1 tbsp (15 ml) chia seeds with 3 to 4 tbsp (45 to 60 ml) water and let sit for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it forms a thick gel. Mix it with up to 9 tbsp (130 mL) water if you prefer thinner gels. This gel can be refrigerated for up to two weeks before eating. Forming this gel in advance saves time and ensures that there are no dry, crunchy seeds when you add it to another food. You can use this gel as a substitute for eggs in baked goods. 5 tbsp (75 mL) of gel is roughly equal to one egg. You cannot use this as an egg substitute in omelets or other recipes where the egg is not mixed with other ingredients. Add 2 to 4 Tbsp (30 to 60 ml) of chia seeds to any bowl of soup, stew, sauce, or gravy. Let sit for 10 to 30 minutes or until it thickens. Stir occasionally to break up clumps of chia seeds. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Make chia seed porridge. Grind chia seeds into flour. Mix chia seeds into bread and baked goods. Slip chia seeds into casseroles and similar dishes. Soak them to form a gel for later use. Thicken soups and sauces with chia seeds.

Write an article based on this summary: Choose a calm, relaxing environment. Ask the child for the okay before starting the session. Use a very gentle touch to avoid discomfort. Stop the session if the child feels uncomfortable or restless. Article:

For a child to benefit from a reflexology session, they must be able to concentrate and relax. Choose a room without distractions like television, toys, or other children. Playing soft music and lowering the lights slightly may help your child wind down for the session. Letting the child know that they have control over what happens to their body will help them feel comfortable during a reflexology session. Before starting, ask them if they are ready to begin. Do not start the session until they agree verbally. If you are doing reflexology in a school or community group, you will likely need a signed consent form from the child's parents. Reflexology requires only light pressure to different point on the feet and hands. Pressing too hard may make the child ticklish, cause discomfort, or feel aggressive. Be sure to use a very light touch and ask the child if they are okay with the pressure. If they are uncomfortable, ask them to demonstrate what level of pressure would be better on your hand. Reflexology will not have a positive effect if the child is not responsive to it. If a child seems uneasy or jumpy during the session, stop and offer to let them try the technique on your instead. If this doesn't interest them, allow them a break to play or relax and try again later.

Write an article based on this "Locate an available HDMI port on your TV. Get the right HDMI cable. Connect one end of the cable to the device. Connect the other end of the cable to the TV. Switch to the HDMI source on your TV. Configure your computer's audio to route through the TV (optional)." Article:

Most modern TVs have at least one full-size (Type A) HDMI port, which is 13.9 mm x 4.45 mm in size. These ports are usually labeled "HDMI." If there is more than one port, each will be labeled with a number (e.g., HDMI 1, HDMI 2). Some TVs also have HDMI ports on the front or side panel. If the device has the same size HDMI port as your TV (Type A/13.99 mm x 4.45 mm), you'll just need a standard Type-A HDMI cable, which has the same 19-pin connector on both sides. However, some devices (often cameras and portable media players) have smaller HDMI ports, which means you'll need a different type of cable: Type C/Mini-HDMI: This type of HDMI port is often found on somewhat older DSLR cameras and camcorders. The dimensions are 10.42 mm x 2.42 mm, which is a lot smaller than Type A. If your device has this port, you'll need a Mini-HDMI-C to HDMI-A cable. Type D/Micro-HDMI: Even smaller than the Type C, this 6.4 mm x 2.8 mm port is commonly found on small recording devices such as the GoPro and some smartphones. You'll need a Micro HDMI-D to HDMI-A cable in this situation. Turn on the device you want to connect to the TV, and then gently insert the matching end of the cable into its HDMI port. You should only be able to insert the HDMI plug into the port in one direction. Never force the cable plug into the port since doing so could damage both the cord and the device. Turn on the TV if you haven't already done so, and then connect the cable securely. If your TV has multiple HDMI ports, take note of the HDMI port number you're using. Use the SOURCE or INPUT button on your TV or remote to select the HDMI port. You'll usually have to press it a few times until you reach the right port number. Once you reach the correct source, you should see the device's image on the screen. If you're using Windows, press ⊞ Win+P to open the Windows Project panel, and then select an option for displaying the screen on the TV. If you want to mirror the desktop, for example, select Duplicate. If you have a Mac, the screen should automatically be mirrored on the TV. If the dimensions look funny, navigate to Apple menu > System Preferences > Displays > Display and select Default for display. If you need to enter a specific resolution, chose Scaled instead and enter that resolution now. If you've connected a computer to the TV and want to make sure the audio comes through the TV's speakers, follow these steps: Mac: Navigate to Apple menu > System Preferences > Sound > Output and select your TV or HDMI output. Windows: Right-click the volume icon in the system tray (next to the clock), select Sound Settings, and select your computer's default audio device, often called Speakers (High Definition Audio), from the "Choose your output device" menu.

A potential attacker would rather assault someone who is looking at the ground, and is looking unsure. You will be less likely to be attacked if you maintain a good posture and look directly ahead of you. Keep your phone in hand and ready to make a call if necessary, but do not look down at it while you walk. Walk with purpose and pay close attention to your surroundings. Always know where you are going before you go there. If you plan out your route before leaving, you will be confident as you walk and less likely to get lost or have to ask strangers for directions. If you should return home and there is a new car nearby or a new person standing outside, take precaution and stay alert. Many times, this will be harmless, but sometimes this could be a potential threat. Call a neighbor who can make sure you get inside safely. As far as it is possible, avoid walking alone at night. The more people you have to walk with at night, the safer you will be. Never walk alone at night if possible. Walking with strangers can be dangerous, as well, so walk with friends that you trust. If your friends want to stay out longer, ask them to walk you to your car and then drop them back off at the door. When you are approaching your car, you do not want to be fumbling to find your keys, particularly at night or when you are alone. Before you leave your destination, have your keys in your hand. You can also use your keys as weapon if you wedge the key between your fingers and punch. Being out while your cell phone is dead can be dangerous. Should you need to call a friend or even 911, a dead phone will render you unable to do so. Take at least an hour before you leave home to charge your phone and make sure that all of your contacts are updated should you need to dial a friend in a hurry. Consider putting some numbers on speed dial so that you can access them more readily. Consider buying a portable charger and taking that with you when you go out. It is easy for a potential attacker to sneak up on you without you having seen them if you are walking with traffic. But if you are walking facing traffic, you will know should a car slow down. Though you love your friends and enjoy spending time with them, you likely know the ones who often get you or themselves into trouble. Spend less time with these types of people and more time with people who you trust. Work to also be a trustworthy friend who keeps your friends safe. Try to avoid going out with friends who regularly get arrested or who drink too much. Though it is normal and healthy to have a few drinks when out with friends, you should refrain from binge drinking at all costs. Know your limits and try to have no more than one to two drinks per hour, depending upon your size. Also, should someone want to buy a drink for you, make sure that you watch as it is being made to assure that no drugs are being put into it. It is perhaps safest to purchase your own drinks. Make sure you keep your drink with you at all times. Don’t leave it unattended. Avoid drugs, as well. They can alter your judgment and make you do things that you normally would not do. Avoid “party punches” at parties unless you know and trust everyone there. These could be spiked with drugs, as well. If something were to happen or if someone were to attack you, there is a smaller chance that someone might hear you and be able to help. It is better to go the long way around than to risk being harmed. If you have an iPhone, you can share your location via the iMessage app while you are texting a friend so they can make sure you arrived home safely. Apps for those without iPhones who are interested in sharing their location include Glympse and Life360 Family Locator. Summary:

Appear confident. Know your surroundings. Walk at night with a group of people you trust. Keep your keys in your hand. Charge your cell phone before going out. Walk facing traffic. Hang out with friends who are responsible and safe. Don’t drink too much or accept drinks you didn’t see being made. Avoid taking short-cuts through dark alleyways, especially at night.

Summarize the following: To put it bluntly, most employers welcome a union like the plague. This is because it will likely cost the employer more to have a unionized work force due to the increased costs of labor and benefits associated with it. These additional costs can reduce the amount of profit the employer enjoys, meaning there may be less for them to keep. Some employers will stop at nothing to prevent this from happening; some will even resort to illegal tactics. Be prepared for animosity both from your employer and from their close confidants. Experienced union organizers can tell you exactly what to expect. One good rule is to be especially careful not to "mess up" on the job in any way. In other words, your employer can't legally fire or punish you for trying to form a union, but if you give them any other reason to, they may jump at the opportunity. Remember that, if the organizing drive is successful, the employer will no longer be able to dictate the terms of employment, but will be obligated by law to negotiate in good faith with your union representatives. Also remember that, while the employer may try to fight unionization efforts, s/he cannot legally penalize you for trying to start a union, even if you're unsuccessful, provided you follow the law as outlined in the NLRA (see section 1). For a union to have a chance of forming, the majority of workers in your workplace will need to support it. Talk to your fellow workers - are many of them unhappy with their treatment or pay? Do any of them have reason to suspect unfairness, favoritism, or discrimination? Have many been left in dire financial straits due to cancelled benefits, etc? If most of your fellow workers seem discontented, you may have a good chance of forming a union. However, be careful where and to whom you raise the prospect of unionizing. Members of your company's management naturally have a stake in the status quo - they stand to make less money if their employees unionize. Also beware of any "favorite" employees or people who have close relationships to the management, as these people may not keep your secret. At first, try to involve only people who you know and trust. Research your industry - are there other workers in your industry (or employed by your competitors) who are unionized? Who are your strongest allies in the workplace? Who is willing to help you in your efforts to organize? Are there any local politicians or community figures who are sympathetic to your cause? Organizing a union is hard work - not only will you have to organize the union itself, but you may also need to take part in rallies and community outreach efforts. The more friends and resources you can secure early on, the greater chance you have of succeeding. As you gather allies and ammunition for your unionization effort, try to remain discrete. The farther you can get without your management learning about your plans to unionize, the better. If your union is to succeed, it needs not just the broad support of the workers in your workplace, but also a strong sense of direction provided by determined leaders. Meet with the people who have pledged their support, and, if you've appealed to a larger union, their representatives (again, you may want to do this discretely so as not to notify the management at your workplace). Decide upon a coalition of the most dedicated union supporters - in the early stages of union formation, these people will act as the leaders of the organization movement, motivating employees to take action and spearheading efforts to gain support. Next, you'll want to be able to show strong, broad support for you union to the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), a neutral governmental agency. This usually means getting as many workers in your workplace as possible to sign special forms called "authorization cards" declaring their desire to be represented by a union. To get the NLRB to hold an anonymous election to determine whether your workplace will unionize, you'll need 30% of the workers to sign such cards. Note - these authorization cards must specify that, by signing, a worker is declaring his or her intention to be represented by a union. If the card says only that, by signing, the worker is declaring his or her support for a vote on the matter of unionization, they're not valid. Often, to garner support, organizing committees will throw rallies, host speakers, and distribute literature to educate workers about their rights and encourage union membership. Consider these tactics to increase support for your union. When you get at least 30% of the workers to pledge their unionization support, you can file a petition with the NLRB to hold an official election in your workplace. When it receives the petition, the NLRB will investigate to ensure the union support is genuine and wasn't coerced. If it finds that it is, the NLRB will negotiate with your employer and with your fledgling union to schedule an election. This election usually takes place at your workplace, and can take place at multiple times to ensure workers from all shifts get a chance to vote. Note that your employer can, and often will, challenge the legitimacy of your petition and/or worker support as demonstrated by authorization cards. Note also that this process is very complicated and the procedure in these steps are simplified. Contact the NLRB for exact, specific rules, which may vary based on your employer and state. If your union wins the election, it becomes officially recognized by the NLRB. At this point, your employer must negotiate a collective contract with your union by law. During your negotiations, you'll be able to address specific workplace grievances, try to introduce new working arrangements, fight for greater pay, and more. The specifics of your contract are up to your union leadership, your employer, and, of course, you, as contracts have to approved by a union vote before they go into effect. Note that, while unions allow you to negotiate collectively, they don't guarantee your offer will be accepted by your employer. Remember that negotiation is a back-and-forth process - you may not get exactly what you want. However, rest assured that, on average, union workers make about 30% more than their non-union counterparts. Summary:

Be ready for plenty of opposition. "Feel out" your workplace. Gather information and support. Create an organizing committee. Demonstrate support for your union to the NLRB. Have an NLRB-sponsored election. Negotiate a contract.

Summarize this article: Obviously, you'll need a paintbrush and paint, but for best results, you'll likely also want a suitable primer. Be sure the paint and primer you buy is intended for your purposes (interior vs. exterior; acrylic vs. oil based), and, all in all, be sure you also have: Clean rag Drop cloth(s) (or newspaper) Hammer Latex paint (or other suitable paint) Paintbrush Paint tray (for roller) Primer (if necessary) Roller (low-nap) Sandpaper (fine grit, 180 - 220-grit) Sawhorses Screwdriver First, close the door so the hinge opens flat, allowing better access. Then, use a small screwdriver to force the pins out of your hinge. You may only need a screwdriver to accomplish this task, but if the pin is stuck, tap the back of your screwdriver with a hammer to pop it free. If you don't have a screwdriver the right size on hand, you might try using a nail pushed through the bottom of the hinge. The shape of your door and the material it's made from can make handling a door by yourself cumbersome, difficult, or dangerous. Especially if you are painting a metal door, which can be extremely heavy. Once the pins have been pulled free from all hinges, remove the door from its frame with your helper. Make sure the area you will be painting is well ventilated, clear of obstacles, and properly covered with drop cloths or newspaper in case of drips or splatter. Laying your door atop sawhorses with the side you intend on working face up will make the sanding and priming process easier on yourself. You can lay the door on the floor, if necessary, but this can dirty your door or accidentally cause damage. To prevent your door from sticking or freshly applied paint from becoming damaged by your sawhorse, you may want to use cardboard to pad the tops of your horses. Sanding and painting bent over might also cause back pain. Summary:

Gather your door painting supplies. Use your hammer and a screwdriver to remove the hinge pins. Have a friend help remove the door. Position the door in your work area.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? This includes making sure storm windows are installed and closed in place if you have them. Windows should be latched. Open them during the day if the temperature outside is higher than the temperature indoors. Keep your windows air-tight. You may want to purchase removable window caulk or plastic to better seal them. At a minimum, stuff a towel or shirt in front of any noticeable leaks. This will keep the cold air out, and the warmth from the sun will heat your house without cold air coming in. You could also cover your windows with clear plastic sheets. A set of heavy curtains can block heavy drafts of air. Open them when the sun is shining and close them when it's not. Check around the door frame and also under the door. You may want to buy weather stripping or a door sweep. Again, at minimum, make a draft dodger or stuff a towel at the bottom of the door. Check for obstructions (e.g. plants, sheds) that might keep the sun's rays from reaching your house. Remove items leaning against walls on the sunny side of your house. (Ideally, put them back again at night for additional insulation). The closed door makes that room another barrier between you and the frigid outdoors. It also stops air from circulating as much, which reduces heat loss. Home improvement stores sell magnetic register covers to "shut off" forced air furnace registers in unused rooms. That way when the heater does click on, only the registers in the rooms you use will pump out heat. This makes for more efficient use of the heater. Check that all heat registers are adjusted open, especially where plumbing pipes might freeze. Unblock cold air returns in heated rooms (they may be blocked with furniture or rug) so heat can circulate efficiently. Rugs and carpets help prevent heat loss through the floor. They are generally warmer to the touch than wood or stone, and so offer a warmer surface to walk on. A lot of heat escapes through the attic, as warm air rises and cold air sinks. Make sure that your attic has enough insulation. Cooking can help you to keep warm as an activity, through the oven's warmth and by eating something nice and warm after. Bake cookies or a pie. Your oven will help to dry the air and heat the kitchen. The kitchen will be warm while you are cooking, and then you can have a great home cooked meal too! After, leave the oven on and open the oven door to let some heat in the house. Only leave the oven on for ten to twenty minutes, so you don't waste energy. Limit cooking that gives off steam, as this will increase the humidity in the air and make your house damp. Lowering humidity in the wintertime helps you to feel warmer. Water vapor (humidity) has a greater heat capacity (ability to absorb heat) than dry air. As a result, humid air feels colder in winter than does dry air and it takes more heat to make damp air feel comfortable. A candle/candles can produce a lot of heat, just be mindful of where they are placed and do not leave them unattended. A trip to most any grocery store or discount store can provide you with a number of candles cheap! Use a candle heater. It doesn't create as much heat as a fireplace or real heater, but will create warmth very cheaply. The average incandescent light bulb releases up to 95% of its energy as heat rather than light, making it an extremely efficient heat source. Compact Fluorescent and LED lights are not helpful in warming your room, so save them for warmer days and use the money you saved to pay the heat bill. Summary:

Close all of your windows properly. Use cheap, transparent shower curtains over the windows that receive sunlight. Put up curtains. Seal your doors. Let as much sun hit your house as possible. Close off any unused rooms. Put down a rug or carpet. Add insulation in the attic and the crawl space. Cook. Light a candle. Turn on some lights.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: While moderate eating tries to get away from obsessive calorie counting, you want to make sure you have a general grasp on what constitutes a healthy meal for you. The average individual needs 2,000 calories daily, but this can change based on age, gender, height, and weight. To calculate how many calories you need a day, visit https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/weight-loss/in-depth/weight-loss/itt-20084941. Preparing these meals ahead of time will help you avoid impulse snacking. It also guarantees that for most of your meals, you will be able to control portion size in advance. You can plan your meals with apps like Cook Smart and Plan to Eat. Recently, many people have shared stories of success with “intermittent fasting”--eating normally most of the time while severely restricting intake at scheduled intervals. While scientists have observed some evidence for this approach, recent fad diets exaggerate the pros and under-emphasize the risks of these approaches. The 5:2 Diet involves eating regularly for 5 days and then restricting one’s calorie intake by 25% for 2 days. The 16:8 Plan sets hourly guidelines. Eat normally for 8 hours and fast for the remaining 16 hours. Summary:

Look up your ideal calorie intake. Plan and prepare weekday meals that meet your dietary needs. Talk to a dietitian or doctor if you're considering fasting.

Article: Make piles for like items, focusing on items such as clothes, books, tissues, magazines, shoes, papers and anything else that you may have laying around. The first step to getting an organized bedroom is cleaning up the mess that you've already created. When you're done, the only things touching the floor should be your furniture. This is an important first step — you'll have a much more difficult time cleaning around your clutter rather than you will have simply getting it out of the way. Once you have your floor completely clear, gather the items you picked up and decide whether you want to keep each item or get rid of it. Place the “keep” items in the box for things to keep and place the “get rid of” items in the box for things to throw away. Don't be afraid to part with items you haven't used in years and that don't hold any sentimental value. Saving an antique keepsake given to you by your grandmother may make more sense than saving a stack of last year’s junk mail. To determine which items of clothing in your closet you need to get rid of, turn around all the hangers in your closet so the hooks are pointing towards you (the wrong way). When you wear something, hang it back up the normal way. In three to six months, any hangers facing the wrong way are holding clothes you haven’t worn, and should go in the donation box. Consider the items you threw into the “get rid of” box when you gave your room an initial clean. Look them over and determine if they are worth donating or need to be thrown away. Give your used clothes and furniture to a secondhand store. Charities like Goodwill and the Salvation Army usually accept used items in good condition. Give your books to a library. By donating used books to a library, you give others the chance to discover new books. Sell or give away possessions online. Classified ad sites like Craigslist usually have sections devoted to getting rid of used goods for cheap or for free. What is a summary?

Pick up anything on the floor. Create boxes for things to keep and things to throw away. Donate or throw away any unwanted items.

Article: . Funding an art gallery is similar to funding any other business. You will need money to lease your space, redecorate, and pay for utilities are other expenses. If you can afford it, your best option is to finance the business yourself, either alone or with your business partners. This will free you from having to pay off debt later. If this is not possible, you can always apply for business loans from a local bank or the Small Business Administration (SBA). In some cases, you may also have the option of gaining investors who will give you startup money in exchange for equity (a share of your business and its future profits). When you've located a space that love, make sure that you can afford it. You won't last long if your expenses (including rent) outweigh your sales and funding reserves. Try negotiating down an ideal space that is slightly out of your price range. In order to operate as a business, you will have to register a "doing business as" (DBA) name. This name must be different than just your name or the names of you and your partners. If you are organized as an LLC or corporation, you don't have to register a separate DBA name. Registration is done with your county clerk or with your state, depending on your location. This name will be used on all legal documents related to your business. Your gallery will have to be licensed to operate as business. The exact requirements for doing so vary by location, but at minimum you will need a business license issued by your city or state. The best way to find out what you need is to contact your local branch of the Small Business Administration (SBA) or an equivalent organization that offers help to small businesses. Try searching online for your location and "business licensing" to locate a government website that will explain what is required of you. You will need additional permits or licenses if you serve food or alcohol in your gallery. As a business, you will need to collect taxes from customers, pay taxes on your employees' wages, and file annual tax returns. Start by registering with your state to collect sales taxes. This is handled differently in each state so search online for the relevant tax authority in yours. Your tax filing requirements vary based on your business structure. See the IRS's guide for small business taxes at https://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Small-Businesses-&-Self-Employed. To pay employees and (in most cases) to file taxes, you will need and Employer Identification Number (EIN) from the IRS. Visit their website to apply for one (it's free to do so). Repaint and remodel the inside of your space to match your design that you thought up earlier. Work with the space you have, taking advantage of unique features and covering up flaws. Do as much of this work yourself as you possibly can to save on costs. And remember, when you're just starting out, the quality of the art is much more important than the quality of your gallery space. Focus on the art and the money for cosmetic improvements will come. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Acquire funding Lease your gallery space. Register as a business. Adhere to local licensing and permit requirements. Figure out your taxation requirements. Remodel the interior to fit your design.

Write an article based on this summary: Start with characters. Consider the setting. Figure out the inner story. Match the inner story with an outer story. Understand the limitations of the stage. Read some drama and see some productions. Article:

Plays are character-driven pieces of writing. Since it's basically going to be a lot of talking between people, your characters need to be as believable as possible. In great plays, the inner tensions between characters enact themselves in external ways. In other words, the characters need to have problems that show up in their behaviour. What does your character want? What is keeping your character from getting what they want? What stands in their way? Thinking of interesting jobs can be a good way of developing a character. What's the hardest job you can imagine? What's a job you've always been curious about? What kind of person becomes a podiatrist? How does one end up with such a job? Don't worry about the name or the physical description of your character. It doesn't tell you anything about a character named Rafe to know that he is 6'4 and has washboard abs and wears t-shirts some of the time. Stick to one notable and telling physical trait. Maybe your character has a scar on their eyebrow from being bitten by a dog, or maybe your character never wears skirts. This reveals something about them and gives them depth. The setting of the play is where and when the story takes place. Placing your character in a tense situation or location is an important way to create drama. Combining character and setting can also be a good way of developing your character, and figuring out what kind of story might result from their placement in that setting. If being a podiatrist is interesting to you, what about being a podiatrist in Paris, Texas? What kind of person becomes a podiatrist in Paris, Texas, for instance? How does one end up there? Be as specific as possible when developing your setting. "The Modern Day" isn't as interesting as "Dr. Wilson's Family Podiatry, next to the The West Hillsboro Suburban Mall, just south of town, at 3:15 pm on Good Friday." The more specific you are, the more you'll give yourself to work with. Consider what other characters the setting may introduce. Who works the desk at the podiatry office? If it's a family business, maybe the podiatrist's daughter. Who has an appointment on a Friday? Who's waiting? What are they in for? Take into account what would be probable. If you're making a play based on the future, make sure you prepare ideas for how you would stage this futuristic world. If your play takes place in the forest, be sure you have enough time and budget to make the forest come alive. Be sure to include why the setting is how it is. For example, a tornado passed through the forest and the forest is now a big mess. The "inner" story refers to the psychological conflicts happening within the characters. This is largely hidden throughout the story, but it's important for you to have some sense of as you're writing the play. The inner story will guide the characters throughout their decisions throughout the plot. The more concrete the inner story, the easier the characters will be to write. They'll be making their own decisions. Maybe your podiatrist wanted to be a brain surgeon but lacked the stomach for it. Maybe the podiatry program had the least strenuous schedule, and allowed the med-school version of your character to stay up late partying while still passing all their classes. Maybe the podiatrist is deeply unhappy and unfulfilled about having never left Paris. Bad plots look backward and good plots look forward. It wouldn't be interesting to have a play in which your podiatrist talked endlessly about how she'd rather not be a podiatrist and then killed herself with shoe polish. Instead, find a dramatic situation to place your characters in that will test their mettle and change them in some way. If it's Good Friday, maybe the podiatrist's retire parents (former podiatrists themselves) are coming for an Easter Dinner. Is your podiatrist even religious? Will she go to Church? Does she have to get home and clean up the house before the weekend starts? Is her father going to make her check out his bunions, AGAIN? Will this be the last straw? What will happen? Remember: you're not writing a movie. A play is basically an ongoing series of conversations between people. The focus needs to be on the tension between the characters, the language, and on developing your characters into believable people. It isn't a great medium for gun fights and car chases. Alternatively, break from traditional theatre and write a play with impossible-to-stage scenes as a way of exploring the writing itself. If you have no plans to actually stage the play, treat it as a different form of poem. Bertolt Brecht, Samuel Beckett, and Antonin Artaud were all innovators of experimental avant garde plays who incorporated audience participation and other absurdist or surreal elements into their drama. Just as you wouldn't try to write a novel if you'd never read one, it's a good idea to get familiar with the world of contemporary theater. Check out plays you've read and liked to see how they transform on the stage. David Mamet, Tony Kushner, and Polly Stenham are all popular and celebrated playwrights. It's important to see new plays if you're going to write new plays. Even if you've got a good working knowledge and love of Shakespeare, it's important to get familiar with what's going on in the here and now. You don't live in Shakespeare's era, so it wouldn't make sense to write plays as if you did.

Write an article based on this "Carefully scrape off any remaining tentacles. Manage your pain with heat. Treat pain with painkillers." Article:

After rinsing the sting, scrape off remaining tentacle residue with a plastic object, like the edge of a credit card. Do not attempt to rub away the tentacles with a cloth or towel, as this will cause more stinging cells to fire. Stay extremely still while you remove the tentacles. The more you move around while you attempt to remove jellyfish tentacles, the more venom will be released. If you are experiencing shock, make sure that someone has called emergency services and try to calm yourself as much as possible. Once the tentacles have been removed, relieve pain by immersing the stung area in hot water (not scalding!). Keep the water temperature around 104-113° F (40-45° C) to prevent burns. Studies have shown that heat deactivates the venom toxins, relieving pain better than ice If you are experiencing extreme pain, take a recommended dose of a painkiller, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen. Ibuprofen can also reduce inflammation associated with the sting.

Use a bevel tool to cut the square off of the edge of your leather. This will keep the edges from rolling up over time. It is only necessary to bevel one side of the leather: the back side can remain flat. Pay special attention to any sharp corners on your leather piece. These will need to be beveled separately, creating a diagonal or cut corner. With your edges beveled, you can move on to adding whatever finish is appropriate for your leather. You can use a resist to keep it a particular area clear of the finish or to reduce the coloring. Just be sure to always use gloves when using dyes or finishes....unless you like your hands a different color! Tandy sells excellent finishes in a variety of colors. To apply these, use a paper towel, wool dauber, or a natural or very old sponge (regular sponges contain a chemical that does not react well with the leather). You can also use dyes. There are dyes intended for leather, but some leathers can also be dyed with shoe polish! These should be applied in the same way as the finishes. Acrylic paint thinned with water works on leather, if you'd prefer a painted look. Just use a normal paint brush to apply it. This works better for smaller, detailed sections than larger ones. You'll want to smooth the beveled edges of your piece after dying it. You can use a special tool for this purpose but the cheaper option is to simply rub it with a paper towel or canvas cloth! This will make the edges look shiny and professional. If you plan on doing any stitching, you'll want to add a stitching groove to keep your stitches from being worn down over time. There is a tool for this purpose called a stitch groover. Once you've cut a channel into your leather where the stitching will go, use a pricking iron or overstitch wheel to lightly mark where your individual stitches will go. This will help create an even, professional look. Finally, punch the individual holes you marked using a piercing awl. When buying an overstitch wheel or pricking iron, get a shorter one to start off with, as it will be more versatile and make it easier to turn corners. When starting a new stitching line or having to otherwise pick up the overstitch wheel to start again, place the first spoke down in the hole of the last section of the line. This will keep the stitches even. Before sewing, you'll want to add any other finishing touches that you know you'll need, like adding snaps. Be aware, however, that adding things like snaps is difficult and requires its own separate set of tools. Once that's done, add your stitching and you're basically done. Rub the whole surface with a cloth to get a nice, smooth final look. As a final measure, you can add a clear final finish on after doing your stitching, if you want to. This is not necessary, however. Enjoy your new creation and don't forget to keep practicing! Summary:

Bevel the edges of your leather. Add finishes, dyes, or paint. Smooth the edges. Punch holes for stitching. Add other details. Add a clear finish if desired.

Summarize the following: The amount of water you consume overall each day is up to you, but experts recommend drinking half your body weight in ounces (that is, if you weigh 150 pounds, drink 75 ounces of water a day). If you forget to drink water before meals--an inevitable occurrence since you are trying something new--don't beat yourself up about it. Just try again at the next meal. You'll get the hang of it. Drink it both first thing when you wake up and 30 minutes before you eat a meal. The feeling of fullness you get when filling your stomach with water prevents you from overeating. Drink after meals. Contrary to rumors that drinking while eating is bad for you, drinking after eating actually aids in digestion and prevents constipation. Drink after exercising. You need to replace fluids, even if you’re not noticeably thirsty. Athletes should drink about 1.5-2.5 cups of water beyond the recommended amount (half your body weight in ounces). Tap water gets a bad rap for having chemicals in it, but the EPA directly supervises its production. Bottled water must follow a few regulations, but the EPA can’t guarantee its safety like it can with tap water. If your home has a filtration system in place, use it, but don’t stress about having access to filtered water. Even though bottled water sales have surpassed those of coffee, milk, and juice, bottled water is terrible for the environment and some cities have started taxing it and removing it from their governments. Tap water is just as safe to drink, it's free, and does not harm the environment to consume. Home water filtration systems can sift out some things in tap water, like chlorine, but none of them can remove all water contaminants. Plus you have to maintain these systems or they will grow contaminants, defeating the purpose. To keep water at your fingertips all day, invest in a good BPA-free water bottle, whether plastic, metal, or glass. You don't have to purchase a water bottle, but you do need to keep up with how many ounces of water you're drinking each day. Perhaps designate a cup at work and one at home and use those instead of a water bottle. When eating out, take advantage of the pre-meal drink order and ask for water. Make sure you sip your glass down two times before the meal is brought out. Your focus on the water diet is drinking water to lose weight, but exercise helps burn calories. If you already have a workout routine in place, don’t change it for the water diet. If you don’t, begin by walking several times a week before starting in on more strenuous exercise. Only exercise if you are also eating. Exercising while doing a water fast will deplete your metabolism even more, making you vulnerable to the effects of low blood sugar, which can be dangerous. Summary:

Drink half your body weight. Drink water often. Decide what kind of water. Get a water bottle. Add some light exercise.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? Never dive alone; make sure you have a partner who will be with you the entire time you are in the water. The “buddy system” is essential to freediving safely. Your buddy is responsible only for you and you are responsible only for them. One partner is always on the surface monitoring the diver and ready to provide aid if necessary. These are crucial pieces of equipment for freediving, and it is important to choose masks and snorkels that are comfortable and securely fit your face. An air mask should be low volume. When freediving, you will need to equalize which involves exhaling through your nose to balance the pressure. With a low volume mask, you don't not have to exhale very much to equalize; this means you use less oxygen. Air masks should be made of tempered glass so they withstand the water pressure without breaking, and they should fit securely to your face. To test the fit, hold a mask to your face then breathe in gently through your nose. If the mask remains on your face after a few seconds, it is a good fit. Snorkels should be easy to remove and comfortable to wear. For convenience sake, look for a snorkel that will attach to your mask. Fins are another important part of freediving gear. They help you to move efficiently under the water. There are two types of freediving fins: bi-fins and monofins. Most beginners should start with bi-fins. These resemble scuba diving fins but are longer. Most beginners choose soft or medium-soft blades. Make sure they fit securely and are comfortable, as you will wear them throughout the entire dive. A monofin is a single fin that you place both feet in, like a mermaid tail. They are more effective than bi-fins, but much harder to master. Weight belts are belts designed to have diving weights easily clipped to them. These weights prevent you from floating to the surface as you dive. Lanyards are used to attach you to the line. This helps guide your descent, and it is an important safety device. If you black out or need assistance, your partner can travel down the line and know precisely where you are located. Not all freedivers use weights or lanyards, but they are useful pieces of equipment, especially for beginners. If you are diving with a class or group, a line or buoy will most likely be provided. If you are diving in cooler temperatures, an exposure suit and gloves will be necessary. Summary:

Find a buddy. Buy your air mask and snorkel. Purchase your fins. Buy your weight belt and lanyard.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Whenever you're trying to lose weight, even in a short amount of time, having a support group is helpful. Studies have shown that those people with support groups have better success with their weight loss long-term. Try asking friends or family members to help support you through your weight loss. They can be there to be motivating or to hold you accountable. Also consider asking them to join you on your weight loss diet. Many people are looking to lose some extra weight and it can be more fun to do it together. Compare against the measurements you took during the first week. Keep track of your results, and let the small victories keep you going. Keep weighing yourself as well. After one month, you might decide to lose another 5 pounds or to continue on with your diet for another month to see how much additional weight you can lose. Also keep track of your measurements. You might have toned down all over, but now want to focus on toning and building muscle in your body. A fun way to stay on track and to keep up motivation is by rewarding yourself. Setting up small incentives may help you stay on track or help you maintain your weight loss long-term. Set up small rewards when you meet smaller goals. For example, when you follow the first week of your new diet and exercise program, you might reward yourself with a few new workout songs. Set up bigger rewards when you meet larger goals. For example, you might buy yourself a new outfit when you lose the first 5 pounds. It's generally not recommended to reward yourself with food or dinners out when you're trying to lose weight. These types of rewards may work against your long-term goal. So your month is up. You've probably lost some weight and maybe even have gotten into better shape. Revisit your weight goal to see if you want to continue your current diet. Although you can make significant progress during one month's time frame, if you have more than 10 pounds to lose, you'll most likely need to continue your diet and exercise plan to see further weight loss. If you have met your goal, you may also consider continuing your healthy eating plan to maintain your results. Even if you've met your weight goal, you might want to consider keeping up with increased activity to help maintain your weight loss and physical fitness level. If you haven't met your weight goal yet, keep on going. Or, if you need to, make some changes to your diet and exercise plan to help induce more weight loss or make the plan fit better into your lifestyle. Summary:

Build a support group. Retake measurements. Reward yourself. Revisit your goals.

Article: How you write your conclusion will depend on your genre. However, all good story endings share one element: they leave the reader with something to think about. Your reader should come away from the story thinking about the important themes of your story and it's significance. For a personal or academic essay, your conclusion could take the form of a final paragraph or set of paragraphs. If you are working on a sci-fi novel, then the conclusion might be an entire chapter or two. Don't end with common cliche endings, which will disappoint your reader. For example, don't end your story like this: "A blinding light pierced my eyes, so I lifted my hand to shield them. At that moment, I felt the cocoon of soft blankets around me and the comfort of my pillow. I opened my eyes, realizing it had all been a dream." What is a summary?

Article: A frozen variety of your hamster’s favorite treat is a great way to cool him down on a hot day. Be careful to stick to treats that are safe for your hamster. Consider freezing: Barley Cashews Flaxseeds Millet Oats Peanuts Pumpkin seeds Sesame seeds Cooked potato Fill a water bottle (or an empty soda bottle) about halfway with water. Wait until it freezes solid. Then, wrap it in a towel or cloth and place it in your hamster’s cage. Make sure you wrap the bottle. The frozen bottle can hurt your hamster’s skin. A good tip is to freeze the bottle on its side. That way, when you place it in the cage, the hamster has more to lay against. You can also use a frozen ice pack. Hamsters like to bathe in bath sand. You can treat your hamster to a cool bath by freezing his bath sand. Try taking a cup of sand and placing it in a zip-lock bag. Put the bag in the freezer for a few hours, remove the sand from the bag, and place it in the hamster's cage. If you have a ceramic house in your hamster’s cage, you can freeze it for a few hours to create a cold habitat. Ceramic holds temperature well and can provide a cool haven for an overheated hamster. Alternatively, you can use a frozen ceramic tile or marble square in his cage. Dampen a towel and freeze it for a few hours. Drape it around the outside of the hamster’s cage, wrapping it around the bottom of the cage. This will create a cold barrier that your hamster can lay against. Make sure you do not block the airflow from your hamster’s cage with the towel. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Give frozen treats. Provide a frozen water bottle. Freeze bath sand. Freeze his ceramic housing. Drape a frozen towel over or around the cage.

Write an article based on this "Create a great first impression. Go the extra mile. Take cues from her. Tell her how excited you are to greet her. Give her a compliment." Article:

You can do this by showing up to where you are meeting a little early. Showing up on time will also give you a few minutes to compose yourself and relax. Being punctual shows her that you’re mature and reliable. Chances are you already know some things about her so use what you know to help break the ice. For example: if she likes flowers, get her favorite one and bring it for her. This can also be a good way for her to find you if you’ve never met before and are meeting somewhere public. Don’t come on too strong; instead wait to see how she acts. Is she being flirty or touchy? Or is she more reserved? You don't always have to wait for her to make a move (sometimes it's better to take the lead and be assertive), but acting too comfortable before you get to know each other can put her off. Even if you’ve talked before and made a connection, assuming she’ll be comfortable with physical touching might be a bad idea and could make things awkward. If she does go in for a hug or something like a handshake, meet her halfway. Like in the earlier methods, employ eye contact and smile. "I'm excited to finally meet you, [name]. I've been looking forward to this." Remember that she wants to be there too, and that she’s probably just as nervous as you are, so just breathe and act confident. There's a difference here in complimenting a girl and being rude or objectifying. You may be nervous and be tempted to try and act suave, but being a jerk won’t help you. Be specific when you compliment her. Don't just say "Your hair looks nice." Instead, look for something that she's clearly taken time on. Maybe she has a specific style, like bangs. Don't just say "Your hair looks nice." Instead, look for something that she's clearly taken time on. Maybe she has a specific style, like bangs. Say "I like your bangs, you really pull those off, they frame your face really well." Compliments don't have to be physical either. Show her that she has that special something that makes you attracted to her. Tell her that as soon as she walked in, the whole room brightened up. Tell her that she has a great sense of humor, or that her intelligence is sexy. You don't have to say that she's turning you on, that may be a bit forward, but you can say something like "I was attracted to you as soon as I saw you, but talking with you has only made me more attracted to you." You can employ a bit of humor here as well and add something like "I just hope I'll be able to keep up with you." Remember here that you're on a date, and while being friendly is always a great place to start, you want to show her that you're interested in her as more than just a friend. With a friend you want to keep compliments platonic, but here you can tell her how she makes you feel, that you are attracted to her.

Unplug the power cable. If you need to move the computer to access it easier, remove all the cables from the back. Place the desktop on its side somewhere that gives you easy access. Lay it down with the ports on the back closest to the table. Some cases have thumbscrews for easy opening, while older cases typically require a Phillips head screwdriver. Slide the panel off or pull it open after removing the screws. Make sure to remove the panel that allows access to the motherboard. You can determine which panel to remove by looking for the I/O ports on the back of the computer. These ports include monitor, Ethernet, speaker, USB, and more. They are connected to the motherboard, so remove the panel on the opposite side. Anytime you work inside a computer, you risk emitting an electrostatic discharge that could damage your components. You can reduce this risk by wearing an anti-static wriststrap, or by grounding yourself before working in the computer. Touching a metal water tap will ground you. If you are replacing RAM, pop out the old modules by pressing down on the latches on each end of the module. The RAM module should pop out of the slot, allowing you to lift it directly out. Many motherboards have four slots for RAM, but pairs are typically not installed directly next to each other. For example, the slots may be laid out as A1, B1, A2, B2 and you would install your first pair on A1 and B1. Refer to your motherboard documentation to ensure that you know which slots to use. If you don't have your documentation handy, you can often tell which slots are pairs by looking at the coloring. They may be labeled on the edge, which each label etched onto the motherboard. These labels may be small, so you may have to look closely. Push each module directly into the slot, ensuring that the notches at the bottom line up. Apply even pressure directly to the top of the module until it is inserted and the latches snap into place on each side. Do not force the modules in or you may break them. Nearly all RAM is installed in pairs. Some computers will have difficulty with a single RAM stick, and using only one stick will decrease performance. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/2\/28\/Add-RAM-Step-12Bullet1.jpg\/v4-459px-Add-RAM-Step-12Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/2\/28\/Add-RAM-Step-12Bullet1.jpg\/aid1606556-v4-728px-Add-RAM-Step-12Bullet1.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":306,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"485","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fair_use\">Fair Use<\/a> (screenshot)<br>\n<\/p><\/div>"} With the RAM installed, close up your computer and screw the case panel back into place. Plug all of the cables back in. Turn on your computer and allow it to boot into your operating system. You may be prompted to continue due to your new RAM installation. If your computer runs into a serious error at this point, the RAM may be improperly installed, or there may be an errors with one of your new modules. See this guide for instructions on testing your RAM modules. Open your computer's system information to verify that the RAM was properly installed and is being used. Double-check that the amount is being displayed correctly. Windows - Open the System Properties window by pressing ⊞ Win+Pause. Verify your installed RAM in the System section. Mac - Click the Apple menu and select "About This Mac". Verify your installed RAM in the Memory entry. Summary:

Power down the computer. Open the case. Ground yourself. Remove existing RAM (if necessary). Check how the RAM slots are laid out. Install your RAM. Close up the computer. Boot up your operating system. Verify that the RAM is recognized.

Summarize the following: Aside from the geopolitical warning signs, your first warnings of an imminent nuclear attack will most likely be an alarm or warning signal; if not, it will be the blast itself. The bright light from a detonation of a nuclear weapon can be seen tens of miles away from ground zero. If within the vicinity of the blast (or ground zero), your chances of survival are virtually nonexistent unless you are in a shelter that provides a very (VERY) good blast protection. If you are a few miles out, you will have about 10-15 seconds until the heat wave hits you, and maybe 20-30 seconds until the shock wave does. Under no circumstances should you look directly at the fireball. On a clear day, this can cause temporary blindness at very large distances. However, the actual damage radius is highly variable depending on the size of the bomb, the altitude of the explosion, and even the weather conditions at the time of the blast. If you can't find shelter, seek a depressed area nearby and lay face down, exposing as little skin as possible. If there is no shelter of this kind, dig as fast as possible. Even around 8 kilometers (5 miles) you will suffer third degree thermal-burns; still at 32 kilometers (20 miles) the heat can burn the skin off your body. The wind itself will peak at around 960 kilometers per hour (600mph) and will level anything or anybody caught in the open. Failing the above options, get indoors, if, and only if, you can be sure that the building will not suffer significant blast and heat damage. This will, at least, provide some protection against radiation. Whether this will be a viable option depends on the construction of the building and how close you will be to the likely ground zero of a nuclear strike. Stay well away from any windows, preferably in a room without one; even if the building does not suffer substantial damage, a nuclear explosion will blow out windows at enormous distances. For an example, one (albeit abnormally large) nuclear test in the Novaya Zemlya archipelago in Russia was known to knock out windows in Finland and Sweden. If residing in Switzerland or Finland, check if your home has an atomic shelter. If not, determine where your village/town/district atomic shelter is and know how to get there. Remember: anywhere in Switzerland, you'll be able to find an atomic shelter. When the sirens sound in Switzerland, you are advised to inform those who may not be able to hear it (e.g. the deaf) and then listen to the National Radio Services (RSR, DRS and/or RTSI). Don't be surrounded by anything flammable or combustible. Substances like nylon or any oil based material will ignite from the heat. Initial (prompt) radiation. This is radiation released at the moment of detonation, and it is short-lived and travels short distances. With the large yields of modern nuclear weapons, it is thought that this will kill few who would not be killed by the blast or heat at the same distance. Residual radiation. Known as radiation fallout. If the detonation was a surface blast or the fireball hits the earth, large amounts of fallout occurs. The dust and debris kicked into the atmosphere rains down, bringing with it dangerous amounts of radiation. The fallout may rain down as contaminated black soot known as "black rain," which is very fatal and may be of extreme temperature. Fallout will contaminate anything it touches.Once you have survived the blast and the initial radiation (for now at least; radiation symptoms have an incubation period), you must find protection against the burning black soot. Before we continue, we should mention the three different types: Alpha particles. These are the weakest and, during an attack, are virtually non-existent as a threat. Alpha particles will survive for only a couple inches in the air before they are absorbed by the atmosphere. They possess a minuscule threat from the exterior, however, they will be fatal if ingested or inhaled. Standard clothing will help protect you from Alpha particles. Beta particles: These are faster than Alpha particles and can penetrate further. They will travel for up to 10 meters (10 yards) before they are absorbed into the atmosphere. Exposure to beta particles is not fatal unless exposed for prolonged periods; which may cause "Beta burns," almost like painful sunburn. They pose a serious threat, however, to the eyes, should they be exposed for a prolonged period. Once again this is harmful if ingested or inhaled, and clothing will help prevent Beta burns. Gamma rays: Gamma rays are the deadliest. They can travel for nearly a mile in the air and penetrate just about any kind of shielding. Therefore gamma radiation will cause severe damage to the internal organs even as an external source. Sufficient shielding will be required. A shelter's PF against radiation will tell you how many times less a person inside the shelter will receive radiation compared to open space. For example, RPF 300 means that you will receive 300 times less radiation in the shelter than in the open. Avoid exposure to Gamma radiation. Try not to spend more than 5 minutes exposed. If you are in a rural area, try finding a cave, or a fallen log into which you can crawl. Otherwise just dig a trench to lie in, with stacked earth around you. If in a trench, then create a roof, but only if materials are nearby; don't expose yourself when not necessary. Canvas from a parachute or tent will help stop fallout debris from piling on you, though it will not stop Gamma rays. It is impossible, at a very fundamental physical level, to completely shield from all radiation. It can only be reduced to a tolerable level. Use the following to help you determine the amount of material you'll need to reduce radiation penetration to 1/1000: Steel: 21 cm (0.7 feet) Rock: 70-100 cm (2-3 ft) Concrete: 66 cm (2.2 ft) Wood: 2.6 m (8.8 ft) Soil: 1 m (3.3 ft) Ice: 2 m (6.6 ft) Snow: 6 m (20-22 ft) Under no circumstances leave the shelter in the first forty-eight hours. The reason for this is to avoid the "fission products" created by a nuclear blast. The most deadly of these is radioactive iodine. Fortunately, radio-iodine has a relatively short half-life of eight days (the time it takes for half to naturally decay into safer isotopes). Keep in mind that even after 8-9 days, there will still be a lot of radio-iodine around so limit your exposure. It may take up to 90 days for the amount of radio-iodine to decay to 0.1% of the initial amount. The other major products of nuclear fission are Cesium and Strontium. These have longer half lives of 30 years and 28 years respectively. They also are very well absorbed by living things and can make food products dangerous for decades. These materials can be carried by the wind thousands of miles so if think you are safe in a remote area, you are not. You will need to ration to survive, obviously; therefore you will eventually expose yourself to the radiation (unless you are in a specific shelter with food and water). Processed foods are okay to eat, so long as the container has no punctures and is relatively intact. Animals may be eaten but, they must be skinned carefully with the heart, liver and kidneys discarded. Try not to eat meat that is close to the bone, for bone marrow retains radiation. How to Eat Dove or Pigeon How to Eat Wild Rabbit Plants in a "hot zone" are edible; those with edible roots or undergrowth (such as carrots and potatoes) are highly recommended. Use an edibility test on the plants. See How to Test if a Plant Is Edible. Open water may have received fallout particles and is harmful. Water from an underground source, such as a spring or covered well, is your best bet. (Consider making a basic pit-style solar still, as described in How to Make Water in the Desert.) Use water from streams and lakes only as a last resort. Create a filter by digging a hole about 1 foot from the bank and drawing the water which seeps in. It may be cloudy or muddy so allow the sediments to sit, then boil the water to ensure safety from bacteria. If in a building, the water is usually safe. If there is no water (there most likely won't be), use the water already in the pipes by opening the faucet at the highest point of the house to let in air, then open a faucet at the lowest point of the house to drain the water. See also How to Get Emergency Drinking Water from a Water Heater. Know How to Purify Water. ), especially when outside to help prevent Beta burns. Decontaminate by shaking your clothes constantly and washing, with water, any exposed skin; settled residue will eventually cause burns. Minor burn: Also known as a Beta burn (though it may be from other particles). Immerse Beta burns in cold water until the pain subsides (usually 5 minutes). If skin starts to blister, char or break; wash it with cold water to remove contaminants, then cover with a sterile compress to prevent infection. Do not break the blisters! If the skin does not blister, char or break; don't cover it, even if it covers a large portion of the body (almost like sunburn). Instead, wash the area and cover it with Vaseline or a solution of baking powder and water if available. But, moist (uncontaminated) earth will do. Severe burn: Known as a thermal burn, as it comes mostly from the high intensity blast heat, rather than ionizing particles, though it can be from the latter. This can be life threatening; everything becomes a factor: water loss, shock, lung damage, infection, etc. Follow these steps to treat a severe burn. Protect burns from further contamination. If clothing covers the burn area, gently cut and remove the cloth from the burn. DO NOT try to remove cloth which has stuck or fused onto the burn. DO NOT try to pull clothes over the burn. DO NOT put any ointment on the burn. Gently wash the burned area with water ONLY. Do NOT apply creams or ointments. Do NOT use a normal sterile medical dressing not specifically intended for burns. As non-adhesive burn dressings (and all other medical supplies) are likely to be in short supply, an expedient alternative is to use plastic wrap (also known as saran wrap, food wrap, and cling film), which is sterile, does not stick to burns, and is readily available. Prevent shock. Shock is the inadequate flow of blood to the vital tissues and organs. If untreated, it can be fatal. Shock results from excessive blood loss, deep burns, or reactions to the sight of a wound or blood. The signs are restlessness, thirst, pale skin and rapid heartbeat. Sweating may occur even if the skin feels cool and clammy. As it worsens, they breathe short fast gasps, with a vacant stare. To treat: maintain proper heartbeat and respiration by massaging the chest and positioning the person for adequate respiration. Loosen any constrictive clothing and reassure the person. Be firm yet gentle with self confidence. This is not contagious, and everything depends on the amount of radiation one received. Here is a condensed version of the table: (Gy (gray) = the SI unit used to measure the absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. 1 Gy = 100 rad. Sv (Sievert) = the SI unit of dose equivalent, 1 Sv = 100 REM. For the purpose of simplification, 1 Gy is usually equivalent to 1 Sv.) Less than 0.05 Gy: No visible symptoms. 0.05-0.5 Gy: Temporarily decreased red blood cell count. 0.5-1 Gy: Decreased production of immunity cells; susceptible to infections; nausea, headache, and vomiting may be common. This amount of radiation is usually survivable without any medical treatment. 1.5-3 Gy: 35% percent of exposed die within 30 days. (LD 35/30) Nausea, vomiting, and loss of hair all over the body. 3-4 Gy: Severe radiation poisoning, 50% fatality after 30 days (LD 50/30). Other symptoms are similar to the 2–3 Sv dose, with uncontrollable bleeding in the mouth, under the skin and in the kidneys (50% probability at 4 Sv) after the latent phase. 4-6 Gy: Acute radiation poisoning, 60% fatality after 30 days (LD 60/30). Fatality increases from 60% at 4.5 Sv to 90% at 6 Sv (unless there is intense medical care). Symptoms start half an hour to two hours after irradiation and last for up to 2 days. After that, there is a 7 to 14 day latent phase, after which generally the same symptoms appear as with 3-4 Sv irradiation, with increased intensity. Female sterility is common at this point. Convalescence takes several months to a year. The primary causes of death (in general 2 to 12 weeks after irradiation) are infections and internal bleeding. 6-10 Gy: Acute radiation poisoning, near 100% fatality after 14 days (LD 100/14). Survival depends on intense medical care. Bone marrow is nearly or completely destroyed, so a bone marrow transplant is required. Gastric and intestinal tissue are severely damaged. Symptoms start 15 to 30 minutes after irradiation and last for up to 2 days. Subsequently, there is a 5 to 10 day latent phase, after which the person dies of infection or internal bleeding. Recovery would take several years and probably never complete. Devair Alves Ferreira received a dose of approximately 7.0 Sv during the Goiânia accident and survived, partially due to his fractionated exposure. 12-20 REM: Death is 100% at this stage; symptoms appear immediately. The gastrointestinal system is completely destroyed. Uncontrollable bleeding from the mouth, under the skin and the kidneys occurs. Fatigue and general illness takes its toll. Symptoms are the same as before with increased intensity. Recovery not possible. More than 20 REM. The same symptoms set in instantly, with increased intensity, then cease for several days in the "walking ghost" phase. Suddenly, gastrointestinal cells are destroyed, with a loss of water and excessive bleeding. Death begins with delirium and insanity. When the brain can't control bodily functions like breathing or blood-circulation, one dies. No medical therapy can reverse this; medical help is for comfort only. Unfortunately, you have to accept that a person may soon die. Though harsh, don't waste rations or supplies on those dying of radiation sickness. Keep rations for the fit and healthy, should supplies be in demand. Radiation sickness is prevalent among the very young, the old or sick. A nuclear weapon detonated at a very high altitude will generate an electromagnetic pulse so powerful that it can destroy electronic and electrical devices. At the very least, unplug all devices from electrical sockets and antennas. Placing radios, flashlights in a SEALED metal container (a "Faraday cage") may protect from EMP, providing the items being protected are not in contact with the enclosure. The metal shield must surround the protected item completely - and it helps if it is grounded. The items to be protected should be insulated from the conductive shell, since the EMP field washing over the shield can still induce voltages in solid state circuit boards. A metalized "space blanket" (costing about $2.00 USD) wrapped securely around a device wrapped in newspaper or cotton may act as a Faraday shield, helpful if one is far from the blast. Another method is to wrap a cardboard box in copper or aluminum foil. Place the item in there and plug the device into the ground. Most likely, a nuclear attack will not be a singular event. Be prepared for another strike or strikes by enemy nations, or an invasion by the attacking party. Keep your shelter intact, unless the materials used are absolutely necessary for survival. Collect any excess clean water and food that is available. However, if the attacking nation does attack again, it will likely be in another part of the country. If all else fails, live in a cave. Summary:

Seek shelter immediately. Remember that radiation exposure could cause large numbers of deaths. Know the types of radiation particles. Begin reinforcing your shelter from the inside by stacking dirt around the walls or anything else you can find. Plan on staying in your shelter for a minimum of 48 hours (2 days). Ration your supplies. Wear all clothing (hats, gloves, goggles, closed sleeve shirt, etc. Treat radiation and thermal burns. Feel free to assist people with radiation sickness, also called Radiation Syndrome. Familiarize yourself with radiation units. Guard critical electrical equipment against EMP. Be prepared for subsequent attacks.

Summarize this article: If your girlfriend seems depressed, recognize it as a problem. Don’t brush it off as something she should just “get over.” If she’s already getting treatment, don’t think that the problem is solved—continue to offer support. This is especially the case for chronic depression. Those suffering from this form are prone to relapses, even if they appear to have been well for a while. Caring for someone with depression can be hard on you, too. You can’t fully support your girlfriend if you aren’t at your best, so make sure to practice good self-care. Make sure that you’re eating well, getting enough sleep, and generally taking care of yourself. Seek help yourself if you begin to experience depression or other health issues. Don’t engage in risky behavior, like drug or alcohol abuse, to help your girlfriend feel better. Keep living your own life. See your friends, go to work or school, and have fun. People develop depression for a variety of complex reasons. It’s never as simple as saying that one thing or another “caused” someone’s depression. Don't fall into the trap of feeling like something you may have done caused your girlfriend’s depression. Instead, focus on her treatment and recovery. Summary:

Take her depression seriously. Take care of yourself as well. Don't take it personally.

Summarize this article in one sentence. Acupressure is an ancient Chinese method that involves placing pressure on an area of your body, using your fingers. Acupressure, like acupuncture, works by changing the pain messages that nerves send to your brain. Take your middle and index fingers and form a “C” shape. Use this shape to press firmly down on the groove between the two large tendons on the inside of your wrist that start at the base of your palm. Hold them there for 30 seconds to a minute. Then, release your fingers from your wrist. You should feel your nausea lift or subside. If you need to have your hands free, you can still try acupressure by purchasing an acupressure or motion sickness bracelet. These bands have a button that applies pressure to points on your wrist continually, providing you with relief throughout the day. Sometimes, nausea is caused by discomfort in your back and neck. Gentle stretches can relieve your back and neck pain and help to relieve your nausea. To stretch your upper back, do a downward facing cross legged pose. Sit cross-legged on the floor and bend your body forward. Stop bending forward when your body is at a 45 degree angle with your legs. Rest your arms on a chair in front of you. If you are more flexible, you can also bend your body until your forehead touches the ground in front of you and your hands are stretched outward. To stretch your neck, sit down in a chair. Relax your shoulders and place your hands on your thighs. Tilt your head toward your shoulder and hold for 15 to 30 seconds. Keep your opposite shoulder down. Take a deep breath and bring your head back to the center. Repeat this 2 to 4 times for each side. Another great anti-nausea yoga pose is putting your legs up against a wall. Lie on a yoga mat or carpet against a wall. Place your tailbone and buttocks against the wall and swing your legs up the wall. Remain in this position for at least 5 minutes, or 40-50 breaths. This pose should help to calm your nausea and reduce any stress or tension in your body. Summary:

Apply acupressure with your fingers. Use an acupressure band. Do yoga to stretch your back and neck.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? Stand about a foot away from the pole while facing it. Hold onto the pole with your dominant hand. Bring up the leg on the same side of your body as the hand that is holding the pole. Then, bring your leg up to the pole as you wrap your other hand around it. Flex your foot and place it on one side of the pole, with your knee on the other side. You'll need to use this leg to really anchor yourself to the pole, and create a sturdy base for your other foot to land on. Now, pull your body up with your hands. Swing your free leg around, and hook the back of the foot behind the first foot. Place the knee of the leg on the pole, so you have a firm grip on the pole with both of your knees. Your legs will now create a platform for you to use as you climb the pole. Move your hands about 1 foot (0.3 m) up the pole to give yourself room to straighten out. Then, pull your knees up. Use your abdominal muscles to pull up your knees about one to two feet. After you bend your knees, lean back a bit and then squeeze the pole with your leg muscles. Use your leg strength to straighten your body as your hands move up the pole. Repeat these steps a few more times until you've reached the top of your pole or the end of your comfort level. This move will help you climb the pole while getting a great workout. Plus, you will look sexy in the process. You can slide down using the basic fireman slide, which means just holding onto the pole with your arms and legs as you slide. Or, you can hold on to the pole with your hands and release your legs just for a moment. Bring them out in front of you and rock your hips as you move your legs down to the ground. This method will take a bit longer to master but it will look and feel fantastic. Summary:

Face the pole. Wrap your leg around the pole. Wrap your other leg around the pole. Move your hands and knees 1 foot (30 cm) up the pole. Squeeze the pole with your legs. Repeat these steps until you're done climbing. Slide down the pole.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The proteins and B vitamins in beer are great for repairing damage, and a light beer can help to lighten the color of your hair. To make a paste that's nourishing and easier to apply, mix half a cup (118 g) of beer with half an avocado and mash the two together into a paste. This recipe calls for lemon and chamomile, both of which can be used alone to lighten hair. To start, pour the juice from three lemons into a bowl. Make an eight-ounce cup of chamomile tea using two bags (four grams) of tea. When the tea has cooled, strain the leaves. Add the tea to the lemon juice and add one tablespoon (0.5 ounces) of almond oil. Stir to combine. Apple cider vinegar and hydrogen peroxide, like beer and lemon juice, can be sprayed onto your hair to help lighten it. Before applying vinegar or peroxide, mix with equal parts water. When applying either of these as a highlighter, use a cotton ball to apply the liquids to sections of hair. Keep an eye on the peroxide, as this may have to be washed out sooner (after 15 to 20 minutes even) than some of the other products. You can also use rhubarb in the same way to lighten hair. Dice a half cup (50 grams) of rhubarb root and boil it in a pot with four cups (one quart) of water for 20 minutes. When cool, strain and apply the liquid to your hair with a cotton ball. Henna is a dye that's extracted from plants, and that produces a reddish orange effect in the hair. To mix a henna paste, take three tablespoons (45 grams) of henna powder and mix in boiling water, just enough to form a thick paste. Set the paste aside in a cool, dark place for about 12 hours. Be sure to wear gloves when applying henna, as it will dye your skin and nails as well. In a small bowl, combine the juice from one lemon with three tablespoons (45 ml) of honey, one teaspoon (5 g) of cinnamon, and one teaspoon (four capsules) of vitamin C powder to make a highlighter that will bring out reddish tones in your hair. Summary:

Lighten your hair with beer. Brighten with a DIY conditioner. Add lighter hues with naturally acidic substances. Dye your hair with henna. Make a lightening hair mask.

Article: You can write and self-publish an e-book on a variety of platforms. Do some market research to find a topic that will sell. Browse through the Kindle Bestseller’s list to identify what people are buying. Read reviews and look for gaps in the market. You can write the book yourself, or you can hire a ghostwriter to write the book for you. Invest in a graphic artist to create a compelling cover for your book. You can hire a ghostwriter from sites like Upwork and pay between $.02 and $.04 per word. Use an app like Scrivener to format your document for Kindle and other platforms. Check for plagiarism with a site like Copyscape. Popular e-book publishing platforms include Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), Smashwords, BookBaby, Barnes and Noble’s PubIt, Lulu, Booktango, iBooks Author, and Scribd. You can make money from your digital photos by selling them on microstock websites. These websites charge customers for using the images, and then they pass a portion of the payment back to you. The typical payment for an image starts at $1 for small images and increases for larger images. Popular sites are iStockphoto.com and Shutterstock.com. In the beginning, you make approximately 15 percent of the sale, but the percentage you earn may increase over time and as you sell more images. Plan to build a diverse portfolio of images. The key to being successful is to sell a large number of images. You make a small amount per image. But the more images you sell, those tiny amounts start to add up. Invest in a digital SLR camera for sharp images. Remember not to include any recognizable brands in your photos. Also, if you are using people, you must have a signed release to use their image. Udemy is a platform that allows you to create an online course that you can sell. Course prices typically range from $47 to $197. The length of the course can be as short as 30 minutes or run from two to three hours. The average instructor earns as much as $7,000 from a course. However, the amount you can earn varies, and it depends largely on how you market the course. Those with a large social media following can market to a large audience and can, therefore, generate more income. If you can compose your own music, then you can license it and sell it. The first step is copyrighting the music. This is called a song copyright, which protects the composition. If the music has been recorded, then you also need a master copyright, which protects the recording. Register your copyrights with the Library of Congress, which costs $35. Once you have copyrights to protect you from unauthorized use of your music, you can pursue different avenues for generating money from your music. A television show may use your music for an episode. This is called a television synch license. The music supervisor of the television show would need to pay for the use of the song copyright and the master copyright. A separate fee would be negotiated for each. A recording artist may purchase your music to record and perform it. This is called a mechanical license, and it gives the artist permission to record and release your song. You would earn royalties on albums or singles sold. Sell your music to a Production Music Library. These are collections of instrumental music that are used as background music on television, in film, on the radio, in documentaries or as music that is played when someone is waiting on hold on the phone. You can earn micro-sync fees when someone uses your music to sync to a YouTube video, a video game, television, commercials or film. CD Baby has a free sync licensing program. What is a summary?

Write an article based on this summary: See a doctor if you have pain that won't go away. Check your anxiety level. Get medical attention if you notice severe symptoms. Article:

Sometimes a stiff neck is a symptom of a deeper problem, just as a slipped disc in your spine or a pinched nerve. This type of injury may not go away on its own. If you have been experiencing stiffness for more than a few days, call the doctor to find out if you need medical attention. Your doctor might administer an anti-inflammatory injection. Cortisone injections can be given directly at the site of the stiffness and they will reduce inflammation of the neck, which may be contributing to stiffness. A stiff neck can be caused by extreme tension in the body, often as a result of the buildup of anxiety. If you think your anxiety is contributing to a stiff neck, you might want to visit a doctor or counselor to talk about treating anxiety. Having a stiff neck is one of the primary symptoms of meningitis, a serious bacterial illness that causes swelling around the brain. A stiff neck may also indicate that you are having a heart attack. Get immediate medical attention if you experience the following symptoms: A fever. Vomiting and nausea. Difficulty touching your chin to your chest. Chest pain or pain in the left arm. Dizziness. If you have trouble sitting up, standing, or walking, see a doctor immediately.

Write an article based on this "Get some hipster role models. Get inspired by hipster websites. Get inspired by magazines and books. Get creative. Get inspired by music. Watch hipster films and shows." Article:

Check out hipster girls like Cory Kennedy, Willa Holland, Leigh Lezark, Agyness Deyn, Peaches and Pixie Geldof, the Jagger girls, Keith Richard's girls, Alice Dellal, Dree Hemingway, and Erin Wasson. See which hipster role model most appeals to you, and follow up on her trends, from what she wears to where she's partying, or what she's eating. If you have a close friend who is a hipster, check out what she wears, reads, and listens to -- just don't be obvious about it. Hipsters don't want to be worshipped. Check out some fashion-themed websites to see which styles appeal to you the most. Though not every style on the sites is made for hipsters, you can pick and choose whatever suits your look. Checking out some cool magazines and books can help you get a better sense of your own hipster style. Try subscribing to a few magazines and picking up a few fashion-centric books to get a better sense of the style you want to achieve. Here are some magazines and books to try: Magazines: NYLON, Dazed & Confused, Elle, Paper, POP! Magazine, and British Vogue Books: the three books from NYLON magazine, Pretty, Street, and Play, and Misshapes, a book by a DJ trio that features the cool outfits people wear at clubs. Many hipsters are artists or at least have a creative side. If you don't have a creative interest yet, then you should find out what you enjoy, whether it's photography, drawing, painting, writing, playing an instrument or even DJing. Whatever you like, get to know the specialists in that field. Enjoy photography? Know and love photographers like Ryan McGinley, Dash Snow, and Ellen von Unwerth. If you enjoy writing, read the classics and try getting into poetry. Get inspired by the work on Jack Kerouac, Ken Kesey, Sylvia Plath, J.D. Salinger, Haruki Murakami, Chuck Palahniuk, Bret Easton Ellis, Dave Eggers, William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, and Chuck Klosterman. If you like art, check out the work of Georgia O'Keefe, Alice Neel, Pablo Picasso, and Andy Warhol. Listening to indie, underground, and even classic music is a big part of being a hipster. To be a hipster, you can't listen only to what's popular, but have to be able to recognize cool music with the potential to make it big -- at which point you'll have to ditch it completely. You can't just listen to the music on your LP player or iPod -- to be a true teenage hipster, you'll have to make an effort to go to concerts, whether the venue is the basement of a tiny cafe or a larger (though not too large) arena. Here are some bands to check out if you want to get into the female teenage hipster groove: Daft Punk Wild Child Justice Panda Bear Ratattat Yeah Yeah Yeahs The xx The Vaccines The Kooks Animal Collective Bright Eyes Deathcab for Cutie Vampire Weekend Minus the Bear Friendly Fires Milky Chance Imagine Dragons Bastille If you want to learn how to be a hipster, they you have to not only be familiar with hipster fashion and music, but you also have to be aware of hipsters in films and TV shows. And remember never to refer to films as "movies" -- that's not a very hipster thing to do. Here are some films and shows to be familiar with: Hipster films from the last decade: 500 Days of Summer, Garden State, Blue Valentine, Juno, The Royal Tenenbaums, Little Miss Sunshine, Amelie, Tiny Furniture, Lars and the Real Girl, Drive, Away We Go, Greenberg Older hipster films: The Shine, Reality Bites, Clerks, Kicking and Screaming, With nail and I, The Rocky Horror Picture Show. TV shows: Girls, Portlandia, Workaholics, Bored to Death

The more anxious or uncertain you seem, the more likely you are to attract negative attention. Be positive! Freshmen are more likely to worry about how they’re perceived, so if you hold yourself like you don’t have a care in the world it will become much harder and less rewarding to try to pick on you. Don’t let unkind remarks phase you. After all, they’re just words. Wake up every day with the goal of making a new friend, learning something useful or finding a way to succeed. Going to school shouldn’t have to be something you dread. Take this opportunity to make the most of your new circumstances. Remember: no one has the final say on the way you feel but you. Feeling out of place as a new student in high school can be discouraging, but it doesn’t have to be. You’re the only one in charge of your attitude. Despite the age gap that exists between you and students of other grades, you all actually have a lot in common: you go to the same school, you’re forced to take the same kinds of classes and you all have your own individual interests. Be mindful of this kinship when trying to form friendships with new people. It shouldn’t matter what grade you’re in if you find joy in the same things. Take note of the things the other students around you like and play up on these similarities. If you notice that another student has a certain band sticker on his or her notebook, for example, strike up a conversation about music and your favorite bands. Everyone feels more or less on their own in high school. Highlighting the things you have in common with your classmates will help break down the walls that keep people from becoming friends. While it’s true that you have a lot to learn when you first start high school, being a freshman shouldn’t be an ingrained part of your identity. You’re an individual first. Be comfortable being yourself and you’ll attract other comfortable people who want to get to know you. They may not even realize you’re a freshman if you don’t feel obligated to play the meek “new kid on the block” role. Figure out solutions to novel problems yourself rather than always asking for help. Becoming more capable will give you a confidence boost, as well as keep you from looking like a helpless freshman. Why not? Become friends with anyone who you like that interests you, no matter what grade they might be in. If you make friends with older students as an underclassman, they might introduce you to their own friends, which will help you develop a reputation as a “cool” freshman. After that, being a couple grades younger won’t seem like such an issue anymore. If you have an older sibling that attends the same school, see if they’d be willing to introduce you to some of the upperclassmen friends. That way, you’ll have someone to help you find your way around, show you the ropes and shield you from ridicule from the older kids. Students of different grade levels often wind up taking the same classes together in high school. Get to know some these older students so that you don’t feel confined to only being friends with other freshmen. Summary:

Keep an upbeat attitude. Try to relate to your classmates. Don’t advertise that you’re a freshman. Make older friends.

Summarize the following: If you are always running around from place to place and find yourself stressed because you have too many things to do, making a schedule can help give some structure to the chaos. Whenever your week begins, take a few minutes to write down all of the things that you need to accomplish during the week, and when you will do them. Be sure to write in any appointments you have made and how long it will take you to get to each appointment so you won’t be late. Making a schedule will make you feel less stressed and will also help you identify any free time that you may have. During this free time you can do fun things that you want to do. If you have something you don’t really feel like doing, do it first. This will accomplish two things. It will get the task out of the way, and it will take it off your mind. That way, you don’t have to spend your time dreading it, and can move onto other things that you feel like doing. If you procrastinate and put off a task until the last minute you will feel more stressed and you may even have to miss out on something fun Unfortunately, there will be many things you have to do that aren’t for fun. For example, you may have to do the laundry, clean your room, or cook dinner. You could stop doing these things, but that will probably cause even bigger problems. Instead of just ignoring your responsibilities, find ways to make them more fun for yourself. For example, put on your favorite music while you’re taking care of your chores. Don’t be afraid to dance around a bit. Remember that even if you look silly no one is watching anyway, and even if they are, it will probably make them laugh to see someone having so much fun doing something mundane. It isn’t always easy, but maintaining a positive attitude will make life more fun. The way we think influences the way we act, and it also influences how others behave towards us. If you keep a positive attitude, people will be drawn to you, and even the most boring task will be more enjoyable than if you were complaining and grouchy about it. Maintaining a positive attitude takes practice. At first, you won’t always be aware of it if you have a bad attitude, but bringing more and more awareness to how you are behaving and the attitude you are portraying will make it easier with time. Summary:

Make a schedule. Don’t procrastinate. Try to make everyday tasks more fun. Have a positive attitude.

Summarize this article: VoIP (voice over Internet protocol) applications allow you to make international phone calls at cheaper rates than through your phone provider. To make a VoIP call, you need a computer, tablet, or smart phone, plus an Internet connection. If you call the USA often, check to see if your VoIP application offers subscriptions or monthly flat rates for a predetermined number of minutes; these subscriptions can significantly lower your per-minute VoIP costs. Many applications (eg., Whatsapp, Skype, and Facebook) allow users to place free calls within the applications — meaning that both you and the person you call would need to have the apps open on your respective devices. If your computer, tablet, or smart phone has a camera and an Internet connection, you may be able to video chat with your contact in the U.S. instead of calling them on the phone. Many social media sites and applications offer video chat for free. Some popular video chat applications include Google+ Hangouts and Skype. If you have limited Internet access but you have a landline with free local minutes, a calling card may be your best option. Calling cards vary greatly in rates — sometimes they seem cheap but have hidden fees. Look for a calling card that offers easy-to-understand pricing and no additional fees. Popular calling cards include Pingo, EnjoyPrepaid, Comfi, Nobelcom, and CallingCards. Note that calling cards are best for landlines and mobile phones with unlimited local minutes. Unless your mobile phone has unlimited local minutes, a calling card will not be the best option for you, as you’ll end up paying for the calling card minutes plus your mobile minutes. If you consistently make calls to the USA, ask your phone provider if they have any international calling plans or can offer you a discount. Calling collect reverses the charges so that the person you call pays for the call instead of you. Unless the person or company you’re calling has expressly told you it’s okay to call them collect, this is not advisable. To call someone collect internationally, have the U.S. area code and 7-digit phone number ready, dial your international phone operator, and ask them to place the call for you. Phone numbers for international phone operators vary depending on which country you’re in; an online search of your country’s name plus the words “international phone operator” will reveal the number for yours. In the UK, you can call your international inland operator on 155; in Japan, you can call the international telephone operator at 0051. Summary:

Use an Internet-based application. Video chat instead. Purchase an international calling card. Consult your phone provider. Call collect.

Summarize this article in one sentence. Canaries need a varied diet of seeds, pellets, fresh fruit, and leafy vegetables. You can usually find a special canary mix of seeds and pellets at pet stores. Give them one teaspoon of this mix a day. Some good vegetables and fruits for the canary include kale, apples, broccoli, grapes, dandelion, oranges, bananas, peas, and melons. Attach both a cuttlefish bone and an avian mineral block to the side of the cage. Your canary will slowly eat away at these for calcium and minerals. Never feed your canary avocado as it is toxic to birds. Canaries need constant access to fresh water. Once a day, take the bowl out of the cage. Empty it out, and wash it with warm water and soap. Rinse it well and dry it with a towel before refilling with fresh water. The cage needs a full cleaning once a week. Put the canary in a bird carrier. Empty out the liner before scrubbing the entire cage with hot water and soap. Wash all of the dishes and perches too. Let everything dry before putting them back in the cage. The cage liner and dishes should be washed every day. Canaries are sensitive to the sun. They may stay awake if there is any light coming into their cage. To prevent this, place a blanket or a cover over the cage after the sun goes down. Canaries have delicate lungs, and they can be prone to mites or other parasites. Take your canary to a specialized avian veterinarian if they show any signs of sickness. Common signs of sickness include fluffed, ruffled, or thinning feathers, inactivity, discolored feces, discharge around the eyes or beak, or squinting. To find a local avian vet, you can use the database at the Association of Avian Vets. Summary:

Feed your canary a varied diet. Replace their water daily. Clean their cage once a week. Cover the cage at night. Watch for signs of sickness.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? Juice from 1/2 a lemon (or 1 tsp. of concentrated lemon juice) 1 or 2 tbsp. of baking soda 1 tsp. honey Brown sugar to desired thickness Use a fork or a whisk to combine the lemon juice, baking soda, and honey in a bowl. Ensure that the mixture is smooth and free of clumps. How much brown sugar you add will depend on your own tastes. If you want the paste to be thicker, add more sugar; for a lighter, runnier exfoliating paste, add less sugar. Make sure the paste is free of lumps. Also make sure that it is not too runny, otherwise it may drip into your eyes or on your clothes or furniture. Use lukewarm water and gently massage your face as you wash it. Be sure to rinse it well. Be gentle as you pat your face dry so as not to irritate your skin. Using gentle, circular motions, apply the mixture to your face and neck with your fingertips. You will likely feel some light tingling and tightening. This is the mask doing its job! If your skin begins to burn, however, wash the mask off right away. Dampen a washcloth with lukewarm water and then use gentle, circular motions to move the mixture from your skin. You may need to rinse out the cloth and re-wet it a few times to completely and thoroughly remove the mixture from your skin. Use the coldest water you can handle, as this will help close your pores and lock in the benefits of the mask. Afterward, gently pat your face dry with a clean, dry washcloth. Once your face is clean and dry, apply your favorite moisturizer to your face and neck. Even without the moisturizer, you should notice that your skin is smoother and brighter even after one treatment. Only do this mask once a week. Doing it more than that may cause your skin to become dry and irritated. The mask should improve the quality of your skin and reduce the appearance of acne. Summary:

Gather your materials: Combine lemon juice, baking soda, and honey. Add brown sugar to desired thickness. Mix everything together to form a smooth paste. Wash face with gentle cleanser and pat dry. Apply the mixture to your face and neck. Leave on for 5 to 15 minutes. Remove the mask with a damp washcloth. Splash your face with cold water. Moisturize. Repeat once a week.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Your dance solo should be geared towards your audience. For example, if you're auditioning for a highly technical dance company, the goal of your dance solo may be to present your advanced technical ability. On the other hand, a dance solo for a community event may be geared solely towards entertaining others. The music and movement needs to reflect the aim of your solo. For example, if you choreograph a fun and easy solo, it might not be the best choice to perform for an audition that requires displaying your technical ability. If you choreograph and highly technical and difficult solo, it might not be appreciated as much by an audience that is just looking to be entertained and doesn’t have knowledge about the technicalities of dance. For example, choose a ballet, jazz, modern, or tap routine. Some choreographic pieces are intended to dazzle through high-energy movements. Others dancers are meant to move others through awe-inspiring gracefulness. With the goal of your solo in mind, consider the type of dance and movement that would be beftyou’re your dance ability and audience. If you’ve never had ballet training, but want a slower, awe-inspiring routine, you may want to try modern or contemporary dance. If you want a fun, high-energy solo, go for tap, jazz, or hip hop. When auditioning for a traditional ballet company, select classical music or a piece that you would commonly dance to in your ballet classes. If you will perform the dance solo at a social or community event, choose music that will appeal to audience members. Try to pick a song that you would enjoy listening and dancing to. Some contemporary dances are performed to recitation of words, or in the case of a step dance, you would create your own music through clapping and stomping. Choreographing and then practicing a dance solo will take time and effort. Set aside an amount of time to work on your routine. You can practice for an hour five days or just a few days a week. Begin working on your routine early enough so that you will feel comfortable with your solo by performance time. Beginning your solo a couple of months ahead of performance time is ideal. The best place to practice is at a dance studio. If you are a member of a dance studio, ask if you can use the space for practice time. Some studios will allow you to rent the space for practice even if you aren’t a member. Practicing in a place with clean, hard floors is okay if you don’t have a studio available to you. You should only practice on vinyl or hardwood floors if you are dancing in pointe shoes. If you’re not dancing in a studio space, make sure the floor will not damage your dancing shoes. Summary:

Adjust the solo to your intended audience. Choose your form of dance. Select appropriate music. Plan practice time. Designate a place to practice.

Article: You can look local frost dates up online. Frost dates are the dates where frost can be expected overnight or in the morning. The Farmer's Almanac online can help you find your frost date by entering your zip code. It's important to plant zinnias after the last frost date in the spring. Zinnia seeds will not survive if they're exposed to frost. It's a good idea to wait a few days or a few weeks after the last predicted frost date. Weather is unpredictable and there's always a chance the forecast could be wrong. If your pH is too high or too low, you can take measures to adjust soil pH. Adding organic materials to your soil, which you can purchase online or at a greenhouse, can alter your soil's pH. Limestone is your best option to raise pH levels. Limestone should be added to the top seven inches of your soil. To lower pH levels, opt for acidic materials such as pine needles and peat moss. If you need to lower your soil's pH fast, opt for sulfur. If you don't want to alter your soil's pH, plant your zinnias in a pot or raised gardening bed with potting soil that has the right pH level. What is a summary?

Check your local frost dates. Adjust your soil as necessary.

Article: The word “average” gets thrown around an awful lot when statistical data are being discussed. At first glance, the term sounds straightforward enough: the average is the amount that falls roughly in the middle. However, there are actually few different types of averages, all of which can be misleading if not properly understood. The mean average is reached by adding up all the numbers in a data set and dividing them by the number of entries in the set. In other words, if you have the numbers 3, 3, 5, 4, and 7, the mean average can be reached by adding them together (to get 22) and then dividing the sum by 5 (since there are 5 numbers in the set).In this example, the mean average is 4.4. The median average is the number in a data set that falls midway between the lower numbers and the higher numbers. Using the same data as before (3, 3, 5, 4, and 7), the median average is 4, since 2 of the numbers are lesser and 2 are greater. The mode average is a representation of the most common number in the data set. Using our example set, the mode average is 3, since it appears twice. The mean average might seem like the most foolproof of all the methods described above, but that actually isn't the case. This is because abnormally high or low numbers in the data set can significantly swing the average. To lie with a mean average, gather outlying data and use it in your equation. For example, imagine you survey 50 households in a neighborhood for their income. Most households make between $40,000 and $60,000 a year, but one household makes $5 million a year. When you compute the mean average, the number will be significantly higher than the “real” average income in that area, because the $5 million number is so much bigger than the others. In a similar way, if you had data showing that 9 people each had $1,000 in their bank accounts, but a tenth person only has $1, the median average would work out to $900.10 – almost 10% less than the most common amount. Reputable surveys often throw out the very highest and very lowest numbers before computing the mean average. However, not every survey you see in the news is reputable. Unless you either have access to the entire data set yourself, or see a written assurance that the outliers were removed, it's safer to assume they weren't. The median average is actually the toughest number to “lie” with, because it can never be too high or too low compared to most data sets. It must lie in the center by necessity. However, you can use the median average to hide a very large or small number. For instance, if your data set is 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 3000, the median average is 3. When you have an even amount of entries, you can reach the median average by finding the mean of the two entries in the middle. This still doesn't account for outliers. Beware of median averages being used to describe changes over time. A company that raises the price of its services by 3% every year could raise them by 20% this year and hide it by presenting a median average of 3% over the last 9 years. In some things, mode averages are almost impossible to lie with – the average number of tickets purchased per person for a ball game, for example, is almost always going to be accurately reflected by the mode. Nevertheless, mode averages, too, can exclude important data, especially in smaller data sets. For instance, if you have a data set of all numbers ranging from 1 to 100, but the number 1 is included 3 times, 1 will be the mode average of the set, even though the mean (and in this case, more sensible) average is much closer to 50. Any survey that rates on a broad scale can be manipulated to emphasize the mode. If you survey 100 people on a scale of 1 to 10 about their feelings on a subject, and more people rate it “10” than any other number, then even if only one more person gave a 10 rating than gave a 1 rating, 10 is the mode average. If you have a set of data that's defined by abstract, rather than concrete numbers (for example, a customer satisfaction survey), it's almost frighteningly easy to lie with that set. If you ask people to rate their satisfaction on a scale from 1 to 3, that doesn't necessarily prove that customers who chose 3 are three times as happy as those who chose 1. This fact is used to skew mean averages in particular, but can also be applied to median and sometimes, even mode averages. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Understand the terminology. Lie with mean averages. Lie with median averages. Lie with mode averages. Lie with representational numbers.

Write an article based on this summary: Cut off any irregularities. Use tweezers to customize your wig. Use foundation makeup to match any exposed material of the wig to your scalp. Use talc powder to remove shine. Increase the volume of your hair. Work water based moisturiser or mouse through the ends of dying hair. Article:

Whether it’s uneven hair, odd patches, or excess mesh lining, use scissors to personalize your look. Cut off excess mesh at its hairline to ensure that it never shows when you wear it. Pluck out random strands of hair to clean up your part and create a smooth transition to your natural hair. Don’t remove too much hair or you may look like you have thinning hair or a bald spot. Create a natural part. Don’t try to create a completely straight line because it will look unnatural. This may take trial and error depending on the material of the wig. Your wig won’t take the same shades as your real skin so you may have to use colours that are a couple shades darker or lighter than what you normally use. Don’t be afraid to use a variety of colours until the wig matches your scalp and looks natural. Be liberal with the makeup as you apply it onto the meshing of the wig. Keep in mind that the meshing may take a while to get your desired look. Add some talc powder to a hair brush and brush through your wig. The combination of brushing and talc powder removes some of the shine from synthetic hair. This will give you a more natural and muted look. Using your fingers, separate the curls in your wig to increase the volume. For a natural look you don’t want your wig to just lay there. Add shape and depth by increasing the volume. Detangle your wig every day using your hands in order to prevent knotting. If you use a comb you may pull out the hair or damage the wig. Breath some life back into your hair before applying your weave especially if it looks dry matted. Avoid using any oil as this will make the ends stick together.

Write an article based on this "Gather your tools. Dig a test pit. Start to take the soil back one layer at a time. Keep an eye out for soil changes. Dig as far as the evidence takes you." Article:

Ideally, you should have a shovel, a medium garden trowel or a small cement trowel, a scraper and a brush. If you are lucky enough to have any finds, you should have a tray to keep them in, a camera and a ruler or yardstick. It is also recommended to have a tarpaulin or a wheelbarrow to add your soil and any turf-grass or paving stones onto without making a large mess. Otherwise known as a sondage, this pit should be a few feet (60-90cm) across, but generally no larger than a metre across each way, otherwise it can become too large a job that requires a long time to excavate. Start by measuring with string and pegs, marking paint or a frame. Lift the turf or paving stones. Put these aside neatly on the tarpaulin so you can easily put them back afterwards with minimal effect. After you have lifted all the turf, check the soil to see if there is anything there. This layer will be the most recent and will be unlikely to have anything very old, although you may find something a few decades old such as an old coin, discarded bottles and other recognisable items. Photograph anything interesting you may find. For young children, anything can be interesting, including old bottle caps and scrap, but genuinely interesting finds are directly related to human activity, as well as dating evidence. As a very rough metaphor, imagine a loaf of bread. You cut the bread in even slices rather than make random holes on the loaf and that's roughly what you are endeavouring to do, by digging layer by layer, revealing even slices. This is the slower way of doing it, but it is arguably the proper method to reveal each layer and get an understanding of the contexts. For most excavations, it's best to obtain a soil sieve from your local hardware store and check the "spoil heap" and/or hire or purchase a metal detector to check for small traces of metal objects. Both ways provide opportunities to find the subtle clues of history. The key method of layers is that if a coin from 1970 is found in that layer, then it's highly improbable that the layer is older than 1970––unless it was buried there––which in itself is an interesting discovery. If you find a very old layer, yet it has modern debris in it or below it, then old soil may have been shifted to that location, or there has been modern disturbance. This inconsistency is all part of the story. The study of layers is often referred to as Stratigraphy and for very complex layers, it can be connected with paleontology. If you find darker patches, this may be remains of charcoal; its presence may be as simple as a bonfire or campfire remains, or alternatively an older dumping ground for kitchen and other waste which has enriched the soil. Small or isolated patches of burnt material are more likely human made rather than a seasonal; naturally produced fires typically would form an even ash layer that can be found when digging several pits in an area. Intense or prolonged burning (such as an ancient hearth, forge or demolition) often leaves red traces in the soil. Other changes to the soil such as lighter and darker layers can show either natural accumulation, chemicals or metals being dumped, or humans digging holes for a fence post, digging a trench to bury something or part of land management, such as building an earthen or stone wall. The key to being a good archaeologist is to decipher these changes. Photograph anything you uncover using your ruler as a scale reference. In particular, keep records of anything that can indicate unknown human activity, or activity that you wouldn't think is normal in a household backyard. It is best to record everything you find and observe, including depth and location in the test pit. Be mindful about the soil types. If you find soil that is different or not naturally occurring, this is a find all on its own. It may be something as simple as someone digging a garden bed using introduced materials or it could be something more complex, such as a quake or a novel building foundation; deducing from the earth what people in the past were doing there is what archaeology is all about. If you're likely to dig more than 1 foot (30cm) deep however, it's generally best to call in additional help, or leave the test pit and ask your local school, university or local historical society to get involved. Deep pits may need structural support for safety and if the water levels are high, may fill with water and be unsafe or just very difficult to excavate.

You need to be as healthy as possible going into the surgery. This includes even minor illnesses like a cold or the flu. If you have a fever, coughing, or a stuffy nose before surgery, tell your doctor so she can evaluate if you are healthy enough for the procedure. During the two weeks before your surgery, avoid spending time with people who have the flu or a cold. Wash your hands frequently, especially after shaking hands with people, being in public, or before preparing food. If it is cold or flu season, ask your doctor if you should avoid crowds of people and public transportation. Avoiding crowds may help you reduce your chances of getting exposed to something. . If you smoke, you will need to stop at least two weeks before the procedure. Not only does smoking damage your heart, but it can complicate your surgery. It may cause: Blood clots Breathing difficulties A bacterial infection in your mouth can increase the risk that you could have bacteria in your blood which might cause an infection. Tell your doctor: What procedures you have scheduled When they are scheduled Why you need the procedures. Your doctor may have advice about when to get the procedures done. If you are having elective valve surgery, you should have most elective dental work done before surgery. If you will have major dental surgery, you will usually have to take antibiotics with the dental procedure. . It is natural to be worried about undergoing heart surgery; however, the physiological changes that your body goes through when under stress are also an additional burden to your heart. You can ease your stress by: Talking to your doctor to learn as much as you can about the procedure you will have. Successful heart surgeries are performed every day. You may find it reassuring to research the success rates. Contact your hospital to ask if they have information on your particular procedure, such as how long it is expected to take, how long you will be in the hospital, and the mortality rate or likelihood of complications. Ask your doctor what will happen if you don't get the surgery. Use relaxation techniques. These methods can help you to control your emotions and reduce stress. You can try deep breathing exercises, meditation, visualizing calming images, and progressively tensing and relaxing the different muscle groups throughout your body. Consult your doctor before starting any new physical activities to make sure your doctor feels that it will be safe for you. Depending on your condition, this could include even mild forms of exercise such as taking walks or doing yoga. Summary:

Avoid exposure to illnesses. Quit smoking Tell your doctor about any dental work you need to have. Manage stress

Summarize the following: Go to social gatherings and spend time with friends or make new ones. Allowing yourself to have genuine connections with other people will start giving you positive experiences to talk about and relate to. These experiences can start shifting a negative mindset to a more optimistic one. You may or may not talk to your friends about what is bothering you, but just knowing that they are there is reassuring. And if you decide to confide in someone you trust, you may experience some relief, or your friend's feedback may be useful. Create works of art to help your brain integrate emotions and thoughts. By creating something, you form new neural pathways in your brain and utilize your entire brain during the process. Aside from being a great way to pour your focus into something positive, creating a work of art can be healing. This does not have to be a “traditional” kind of art. You might choose to paint a picture, but you can create art in many other ways, too. For example, you could build a birdhouse as a creative project, or use online coloring apps or puzzles. If your pain is severe and causes you to feel depressed, anxious, or otherwise mentally unstable, you should seek help from a mental health professional. You should also seek out a professional if you have dealt with the pain for a long time and still struggle to cope with the incident. Your doctor can refer you to a mental health professional. The time required to heal from an incident can vary from incident to incident and person to person. For example, it may take you longer to heal after a parent dies than it takes someone to heal from losing their dog. Support groups will allow you to connect directly with people who are struggling with the same pains. These groups will allow you to share your story and encourage others with similar stories. You will also be held accountable for taking steps to heal yourself since you will be talking about it at each meeting. Support groups are understanding of people working through all stages of pain. You will not be required to share or talk in most support groups. Summary:

Connect with another person. Find a creative outlet. Discuss the situation with a professional. Join a support group.

Summarize this article: Feed your goldfish 2 or 3 times a day. Feed them only a few pinches of food each session. Be sure you’re feeding your goldfish nutritional feed that is designed for the particular type of goldfish you have. In total, provide an amount of food over the course of the day that allows for 5 to 6 minutes of feeding. If the food is dry, soak it in water from the tank for five to ten seconds before feeding your fish. Un-soaked food can injure or sicken the fish when it expands in the stomach. Favor pellets, which should sink, but also include flaked fish food – which will often float on the surface, as goldfish like to eat from both the surface and the bottom of the tank. While feeding goldfish, follow the classic "less is more" approach, as overfeeding a goldfish leads to far more dangerous complications than underfeeding. Watch for long trails of poop trailing from behind your goldfish. If present, you're feeding it too much. Your goldfish should usually be fully aware of its surroundings and be moving around with interest and excitement. Most of a goldfish’s time is spent nibbling on stuff and actively swimming around. If your goldfish isn’t doing so, look closely for signs that it may be sick. Goldfish eyes should be entirely clear. If your goldfish has foggy eyes, it is likely sick. Check out the fish’s fins and body. Fins should be stiff and solid, without uneven edges. Look at the goldfish’s skin. White spots, fuzzy patches, or red streaks all indicate illness. Test your water at the first signs of illness. Often, an illness is a sign that either water or feeding needs to be adjusted. Whether your goldfish has developed unsightly spots, is floating around erratically, or has fins that are not as sprightly as usual, there are proven methods of treatment for the most common goldfish illnesses. There a handful of common goldfish diseases, most of which can be treated by refreshing the water, though some require more detailed treatment. Identify the particular sickness your goldfish is suffering from by crosschecking its symptoms with online descriptions and treat your fish accordingly. Check out the various wikiHow articles on how to treat common goldfish health issues such as swim bladder complications and white spots. Summary:

Feed your goldfish a well-monitored, nutritious diet. Take care not to overfeed your goldfish. Watch out for signs of illness or infection. Diagnose your goldfish’s illness by consulting specific symptom lists online.

Summarize this article in one sentence. If you don’t absolutely know that he likes you, don’t act upon it. You may ruin a friendship based on rumors that other people have told you or an assumption that you’ve made because you think he likes you. There are some tell-tale signs that he is truly into you. He consistently asks you out. He persistently tries for body contact. He persists on hanging one-on-one. The longer you wait, the worse it’ll be. His feelings will grow and it will be impossible to maintain any kind of friendship after you tell him the truth. You can pretend all you want that he’ll “get the hint” if you simply avoid him. Well, he won’t. You need to find a time to talk to him. Make it a time when it’s only the two of you, so that he doesn’t get embarrassed in front of a group of people. Write down what you’re going to say before you say it. If you fumble over your words, you’ll make the conversation longer, more awkward, and a worse time than it needs to be. In your plan, you should have some points about why you aren’t interested in him. Don’t attack him with reasons he’s gross—just be honest about why you’re not into him. You can’t seem to move on from your ex-boyfriend. You just aren’t physically attracted to him. You like someone else. If you have a conversation on the phone or over text, you can still implement all of these into your conversation. The most important part when doing that is being ultimate. Make sure he knows that there is no future chance for the relationship. Summary:

Know that he likes you. Don’t procrastinate. Don’t avoid him forever. Make a plan. Talk over the phone.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you haven’t had a haircut in a few months, you probably have split ends. This is normal. However, split ends can cause a lot of frizz. Get your hair trimmed every six to eight weeks to avoid splitting and breakage. Book your appointments well in advance so that you won’t forget. Cotton bed linens create friction during the night as you toss and turn. This friction causes frizz, along with tangles, breakage and split ends. Satin has a much smoother texture, so sleeping on a satin pillowcase will reduce the friction that causes frizz. Satin also helps hair maintain moisture, which helps combats frizz. Cotton and other fabrics tend to dry the hair out. Wrapping your hair in a satin or silk scarf before you go to sleep will provide the same benefits as the satin pillowcase. Tousling and running your fingers through your hair causes frizz because it disrupts the smoothness of the hair shaft. The more often you touch your hair throughout the day, the frizzier it will become. Whenever possible, avoid touching your wavy hair to maintain your smooth style. Natural oils from your scalp smooth and moisturize your hair, which prevents frizz. Shampooing frequently strips your hair of those natural oils. Whenever possible, wait at least two days between shampoos. This will give your scalp time to create more natural oil. Four shampoos every week should be enough. On the days when you don’t shampoo, rinse it and then apply conditioner as you normally would. You can also use dry shampoo in between regular washes. If you have fine hair, you probably need to shampoo every other day. If you have very thick hair, you can probably go three of four days without shampooing. Wavy hair tends to get dehydrated fast, which makes it prone to frizz. A weekly deep-conditioning mask can help to rehydrate your dry strands by delivering a large dose of much-needed moisture. These masks will also keep hair feeling soft and restore damaged hair cuticles. Look for deep-conditioning mask products that contain glycerin, proteins, shea butter and other hydrating ingredients to prevent frizz. Summary:

Get regular haircuts. Sleep on a satin pillowcase. Avoid touching your hair during the day. Reduce hair washings. Use a deep-conditioning mask once per week.

Article: Bartenders are generally very vigilant about what is happening around their bar, so they will glance your way eventually. Look their way and wait for them to look back at you. Make eye contact and nod or wave to signal that you'd like to order. It will be very difficult for a bartender to see you if you stand behind seated customers at the bar, or behind the beer taps. Position yourself at an empty part of the bar where nothing will prevent the bartender from seeing you. If the bar is too crowded, wait until a spot clears and stand there once it is free. Depending on how busy things are, your server may be very rushed when you place your order. Always wait for your turn and speak respectfully. Being courteous will earn your server's appreciation and may result in better service. If the bar is very crowded, avoid making the bartender wait while you decide what to order. Know what you want before approaching the bar. If you are uncertain, glance at the beer taps or drink menu to choose your beer in advance. Bartenders are liable if they serve alcohol to minors, so it is not unlikely that they will ask to see ID to make sure that you're of legal drinking age. Always have a valid piece of identification with you when you order beer. A driver's license or passport are the best options. If you are in a country or region where tipping is custom, tip your server at least $1 no matter how much your beer costs. If you run a tab and pay for several beers at once, tip at least $1 for every beer you ordered. If you received exceptional service, it is welcome and appreciated to tip your server more. A good tip for exceptional service might be $5 for a $15 bill. Note that tipping is not a traditional practice in some places, like Australia. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Make eye contact with the bartender and nod or wave. Stand in a clear spot in front of the bar to be seen. Be patient and polite when ordering. Decide what you want quickly if the bar is crowded. Present your ID if your server asks for it. Tip your server no less than $1 per beer, if applicable.

Write an article based on this summary: Distance yourself from your toxic parent. Take responsibility for your own emotional health. Build up your self-esteem. Practice good self-care. See a therapist. Article:

Getting some space from your parent will help you feel confident enough to stand up for yourself as an adult. Even if you don’t want to cut off contact with your parent, reduce your communication and visits for a while. See how you feel when your parent has a less prominent role in your life. Often people in toxic environments don’t realize how dysfunctional the people around them are. If you’ve spent a lot of time around your parent in the past, distancing yourself may provide some much-needed perspective on your situation. Try to establish relationships with other parent-type figures, such as aunts, uncles, grandparents, and close family friends. For example, when you spend some time apart from your mother and find other sources of support, you might recognize how little support she provides. Or, even more, you might notice that she not only doesn't offer support but requires it from you. If one or both of your parents are toxic, you will have to give yourself the support and care they should have provided. This isn’t an ideal situation or a fair one, but the sooner you accept it, the sooner you can move on from your parent and work on healing yourself. Avoid holding out hope that your parent will see their mistakes and work with you to repair the relationship. If they were going to change, they would have done it a long time ago. Don't think that distancing yourself will miraculously change them, for instance. You need to be okay with getting time and space for your own emotional well-being--not simply to force them into changing. Challenging your negative self-talk is an effective way to start repairing the damage of a toxic upbringing. If your parent frequently made fun of you or put you down, you might be in the habit of criticizing yourself harshly – maybe even in their voice. But keep in mind that their behavior is not your responsibility. Practice shutting down this critical inner voice and reminding yourself of your strengths instead. For instance, if you catch yourself thinking “I’m nothing but a burden,” shut that thought down and recognize where it is coming from, such as by saying to yourself, “Those are my mother’s thoughts, not mine.” Then, replace the thought with, “I help my friends when they need it, and I’m productive at work.” Make a list of all your best attributes and slide it into your wallet or post it on your bathroom mirror. Review the list whenever you start doubting your abilities. As an adult, you’re no longer dependent on your parents to take care of your physical and emotional health. Recognize and honor your own needs by adopting a healthy lifestyle and making time to relax. Several healthy habits that can make a big difference in the way you feel include eating a clean diet, getting eight hours of sleep every night, and getting some exercise most days of the week. You can take care of your emotional health by meditating, writing in a journal, or working on a creative hobby. Make sure to spend plenty of time around positive people who value you for who you are. A mental health professional can help you work through your feelings towards your toxic parent. With their guidance, you can learn to respect yourself, cope with the pain your parent caused you, and move on with your life. Talk to your family doctor in order to receive a referral for mental health therapist who can help with your circumstances.

Use a glass or jar that is heavy on the bottom so that it easily stays upright. The water should be cold or room temperature, but not warm. The glass or jar should be tall enough so that it can keep the green onions upright. For example, a pint glass or a large canning jar works well. Since green onions are typically sold with roots still attached, these roots can be used to help keep the onions fresh. By submerging the roots in water, you allow the onions to keep taking in water, which helps the onions stay firm and fresh. Even if the roots themselves have been trimmed off your green onions, but the root end remains, the plant will grow new roots in water. In order to keep the right level of humidity around your green onions in a refrigerator, you need to tent them with a plastic bag. This can be a produce bag or a zip-lock bag, whatever you have available. It may be easiest to use the produce bag that you brought the green onions home in. If you have tented your green onions with a produce bag, then you can use a rubber band or string to cinch the plastic bag around the container. If you have used a zip-lock bag, you can simply close the zip-lock edge as much as possible toward the sides of the container. The plastic bag does not need to be totally sealed so that it is airtight. You simply want to keep some of the humidity from the water around the onions. If the plastic bag was not there, the refrigerator would remove all of it. Place the glass with the onions in it on a tall shelf of your refrigerator. Put it in a spot where it won't get bumped a lot and where it will be stable so that it doesn't fall over and spill water all over the fridge. When you want to use your onions, just take the container out, remove the bag, remove an onion, place the plastic bag back on, and put it back in the fridge. To keep the onions fresh, you will need to refresh the water regularly. If you don't, mold can accumulate on the surface of the water and can begin to decay the onions. When you change out the water, you can also rinse off the green onion root sections. This will help to remove any bacteria or mold that might be starting to grow on them. Summary:

Fill a glass or tall jar with 1–2 inches (2.5–5.1 cm) of water. Put the root end of the onions in the water. Cover the onions and the top of the container in a plastic bag. Cinch the plastic bag around the top of the container. Put the glass in your refrigerator. Change the water every few days.

Summarize this article: Although a breeze may feel comfortable coming from outside, an open window will let warm air into the building. By keeping the windows shut and closing the shade, you block the hot air and direct sunlight from coming inside. Use a sun lamp, or light therapy lamp, to replace natural without a majority of the warming effects. These can be purchased online. Electronics generate heat, especially if they are battery operated. Keep your personal devices in bags, cases, or on your desktop so they are not in direct contact with your body. Use external keyboards if you work on laptops to avoid overheating components right underneath your hands. Small fans can help reduce heat while sitting at your desk. Place them next to your computer or under your desk to keep your feet cool. Personal fans can be purchased online or many big-box retailers. Personal fans range from basic AC adapters to USB-powered. Find one that fits best in your workspace. A spritzer with aloe or peppermint is a quick and easy way to cool yourself down in a pinch. Many of these sprays can be purchased online or even made at home with water and essential oils. Make your own spray by filling a spritzer bottle with distilled water and adding 8 to 10 drops of peppermint essential oil. Summary:

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? Make sure all the chicken pieces are about the same size so they will cook evenly. Mix to combine thoroughly, then cover the pot. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, then reduce heat to med-low and simmer for 40-50 minutes, or until chicken is almost cooked. Set the sauce aside to be strained, reduced, and poured over the chicken later. In a large frying pan, heat the oil to medium high. Then, brown the chicken on all sides. Set the chicken pieces on a plate covered in paper towels. If you’re in a more casual setting, you can just add the chicken back to the cooking pot after the sauce is ready. Remove the bay leaves, and the peppercorns if you find them too spicy. If you want a smoother sauce, strain it with a strainer. If desired, skim any excess fat from the top with a cold spoon or a fat separator. Remember to add the salt after you reduce the sauce, as it will get saltier from the soy sauce as it boils down. If you prefer a thinner, less salty sauce, add a little water and reheat. For a thicker sauce, heat the sauce on medium-high heat until it is reduced to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally, making sure not to let the sauce burn on the bottom. Either pour over the chicken on your serving platter, or put the chicken back into the pot. Adobo is traditionally served over steamed rice. Pour a little extra sauce over the rice, if desired. Summary:

Place chicken into a 4 ½ qt heavy bottomed cooking pot with a lid. Add water, vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, bay leaves, pepper. Braise the chicken in the covered pot. Remove the chicken, but reserve the sauce. Brown the chicken pieces. Drain any excess oil from the chicken. Place the chicken onto your serving dish. Strain the sauce. Adjust the sauce to your desired thickness, and add salt if desired. Combine sauce with the chicken. Serve and enjoy!

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The best trailers propel you along, leaving your begging to watch more. They do this through a perfect attention to rhythm. Trailers are often edited like music videos, meaning that the cuts line right up with the beat of the song. Once you know what song you're using, return to the video and cut it so that each transition fits your backing music. Can you tell a short story in the trailer? Think of great trailer's you've seen and how they function. The start with a bang, slow down and explain the conflict, then gain steam until a climactic final shot. This is, in essence, the structure of many real movies. Having this mini roller-coaster ride can make your trailer more compelling, which makes the movie seem more interesting as a result. Not all trailers need to show clips from the actual movie, though most do need a few seconds of footage. The trailer for Eternal Sunshine for the Spotless Mind features a fake commercial for the memory-wiping technology. The Social Network Trailer starts with a minute or so of someone browsing Facebook. Sometimes, starting with clips or images that aren't from the movie helps build suspense, capturing audiences used to hearing "In a world where..." every time. Too many trailers try and fit in everything-- the best jokes, scenes, and plot points-- and end up ruining the entire movie. You want the audience to be curious about the movie, not like they just sat through the spark notes version of it. The best trailers will focus on 1-2 elements, exploring them well, while still hinting that there are other aspects of the movie worth seeing. This is mostly about feel, but you should always ask yourself while editing: "Does this give too much away?" Summary:

Focus on the rhythm, not just images to keep the audience engaged. Make the trailer a mini-movie. Use original footage instead of clips from the movie. Retain an aura of mystery.

Article: Try to buy them in all different washes, cuts, and styles. You can get them from the same store, just be sure there is something noticeably different between each pair. This way, you won't be buying jeans that all look the same! But if anything, make sure you have a tighter pair, a comfortable, slightly baggy pair, and that one pair that fits just right. Get one pair in a soft shade, and one in another color that flatters your skin tone and eye/hair color. These are great for lazy or sick days, when you're running late, just want to be comfortable, or cold days when you're not in the mood for jeans. Everyone needs a break! But make sure they fit nicely. Tight around the butt, but not too tight. Get pairs with drawstrings to adjust the waist size. If you just don't wear skirts, skip this step. If you're worried about people seeing your undergarments, try to get ones with built in shorts. Just wait until the spring-like is hot again, and then you should buy more. Also, don't buy them too short, or you won't be able to wear them after the first few weeks of school, due to weather issues! Try your favorite stores and second hand shops for things you'll like. Fitted tees are good if you think you won't grow out of them. Again, look in the clearance first. Some places can be really pricey though! Can you really afford 35-50 dollars for one shirt? You can buy 2 shirts in the clearance rack at a good expensive store if it fits your budget. The more the merrier, right? 3 to 5 plain, solid colored layering tees will soothe your layering addiction! These are just those plain-colored, but still fitted and cute, tees that can be repeated in a week without being recognized. They can also be accessorized as much as you like. Try to find 1 or 2 bright ones, and the rest soft and/or neutral shades. Some people have like to have 5 so they can wear a different one each day of the week. These are the most common way to stay warm in the winter and fall time. Try getting one heather gray, one black, one tan, one blue jeans, and the last one is up to you! Leggings are important because they go great with cute skirts and are comfortable on days when you just don't feel like wearing pants. Plus, since fall is right around the corner, it will suit the weather! If you don't have good quality shoes, you'll get blisters and be very uncomfortable. Running shoes can be all dirty, but they are comfortable. It's gym and fashion is not imperative. If you get really good shoes then its probably going to get ruined during track and field, or basketball, etc. Try to have 4 to 7 pairs of other shoes to wear outside of gym class. Try to mix it up with your favorite brands and types. Just make sure you feel comfy! If you want more than one pair, get one in a light shade and one in a darker shade. Try to get the other 1/4 in cute patterns, colors, and designs! ). You can also get 2 to 4 good quality bras in fun colors or designs, but make sure one is neutral. Get one strapless, and the rest is up to you! Find and try out different styles, colors, and brands. One option is to get colors that you love on your underwear, and the other is to get underwear in a matched set with your bra. So, if you rarely add anything to outfits, start! But stick with 1 or 2 pieces in each category. If you love accessorizing, embrace it, but don't go crazy! Necklaces are important. If no other jewelry, a girl should always have her signature necklace. That one you wear no matter if you're shopping or playing a sport. Try ones that you can find matching bracelets to go with it. Buy 2 belts, 2 sunglasses, tons of bangles and bracelets and a cute purse. Try to have one backpack for school. This backpack should be comfortable yet cool, have big pockets to put all your books in (and make it look like you don't have any books when really, it's heavy), and have small compartments on the side to put soda, gum, sunglasses, etc. Why not make your backpack fun by putting key chains, signatures of your friends, drawings, and pins on it? {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/7\/71\/Make-a-Back-to-School-Shopping-List-Step-24-Version-2.jpg\/v4-460px-Make-a-Back-to-School-Shopping-List-Step-24-Version-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/7\/71\/Make-a-Back-to-School-Shopping-List-Step-24-Version-2.jpg\/aid1560217-v4-728px-Make-a-Back-to-School-Shopping-List-Step-24-Version-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"546","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} What is a summary?

Get 4 to 6 pairs of jeans. Choose 1 or 2 pairs of sweatpants. Get 2 to 3 skirts, depending on how often you wear them. If you are not in a hot climate, you can buy shorts, but only buy 2 pairs at most. You are going to need 10 to 15 comfy tees. Love layers? Pick up 4 or 5 sweatshirts are a good idea. If you're a girl who's into skirts, 2-5 pairs of leggings. You'll need at least one pair of good-quality running shoes for gym class. Choose Four to seven pairs of any type of shoe. Pick 1 pair of boots and 1 pair of slippers should be good in the winter. Try to make three fourths of your socks white and cotton. If you're a female who wear bras, and are running out, get 3 to 6 daily bras in neutral, grey, black, white, or any other color that makes you happy (underwear and bras can actually influence your mood! Mix up your underwear. If you're a female, accessorizing depends on how often you like to accessorize. Bags can vary a lot.

Article: Before you get out on the ice, you need to put on your skates. Don't worry about buying your own gear right away. You can rent your gear until you're sure you want to figure skate for a long time. Remember to dress warmly! Gloves and scarves are good. Make sure you rent skates that fit. They should feel very snug but you should be able to wiggle your toes, just not too much and you don't want your skates to hurt your feet or make them tingle. You'll also want to be sure you lace them tight enough. You should not be able to roll your ankle. Your skates should fit like a glove. The very first thing you should learn as a figure skater is how to fall. You will fall a lot and it's important to know how to fall so that you don't hurt yourself. Practice falling. If you feel like you're about to fall, squat down so that when you land, your bottom or sides absorb the shock of the fall instead of something that can break or be seriously injured. Do not land with your hands out. Doing this can cause damage to your wrist, as well as let an unaware skater skate over your fingers. You should also learn how to get up or at least get out of the way quickly. You don't want other people to run in to you. The next thing that you should practice as a figure skater is how to keep your knees nice and loose. When you're new to skating, you'll be unstable on your legs and your muscles will be weak, so you'll naturally want to keep your knees locked and stiff. However, loose knees that can move easily are very important for figure skating, not just allowing you to move but also keeping your legs from getting sore. Practice letting your muscles relax and shake your leg around. You can also get your knees loose by crouching just a very small amount. Now that you can stand on skates comfortably and safely, you can learn how to move forward on skates. With one leg pointed forward, push your other leg back and out to the side very gently, with your toes angled away from your body just a little bit. This back leg should push you along the ice. Bring the back leg back down and then make the same push but with the other leg. Though the way you balance is different, you might want to learn this basic motion on street rollerblades before learning it on the ice. It is easier and can help keep you from hurting yourself. Of course, once you move forward, eventually you're going to want to stop. You can't just run into the wall forever! The most basic stop is done by bending your knees just a little and the leaning your body to the side, so that both of your blades are angled away from the direction you're moving in. You can also do a T stop, which is done by turning one of your blades into a T shape with the other blade and angling it away from the direction you're moving in. With those basic motions under your belt, you'll want to learn how to do a basic forward stroke. Stroking is when you do the same motions for moving forward, but longer and more gracefully. Do a more dramatic push off with your leg and hold that leg out behind you for longer before switching to the other leg. Practice this to get to a point where it looks graceful and natural. This will be the basic movement between all of the tricks and movements you will do when figure skating, so you want to do it well. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Gear up. Learn how to fall. Loosen your knees. Learn how to move forward. Learn how to stop. Learn how to stroke.

Write an article based on this summary: Meet with a dietitian. Calculate your recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for protein. Determine your RDA by percentage. Adjust your RDA. Consider how protein functions. Understand how proteins are built. Article:

Since each person's needs vary and depend on a number of factors, consider working with a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, who has been trained to determine your specific dietary needs. Ask your doctor to recommend a nutritionist or find a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. Weigh yourself in the morning after using the toilet. Do this for five mornings and figure out your average weight. Multiply your average weight in pounds by 0.36. The result is your recommended protein intake in grams. The RDA for protein is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, which is why you should multiply your weight by 0.36. You can also use online calculators to determine your RDA: http://fnic.nal.usda.gov/fnic/interactiveDRI/ For example, a person who weighs 120 pounds should eat 43.2 grams of protein a day (120 x 0.36 = 43.2). Another way to look at protein intake is to look at percentages. Depending on your age, gender, state of overall health, activity level and whether you need to lose or gain weight, your protein goal should be about 10 – 25% of your total daily calories. While this amount may seem high when figured as a percentage, dietitians remind that RDA is the minimum amount needed to function. Most Americans get 16% of their calories from protein, although they should be getting more. Some people need more protein than others. In general, children and teenagers need more protein (20 – 25% of calories) than adults. Men need more protein than women. And pregnant and lactating women need more protein than non-pregnant women (75 to 100 g per day). Older populations may need more protein to guard against sarcopenia, so aim for 1.2 g protein per kg. If you have kidney or liver disease, you should decrease the protein in your diet according to your doctor's recommendation. Proteins can act as hormones, becoming chemical messengers that tell cells what to do and when to do it. Proteins are also enzymes, substances that can perform chemical reactions over and over again. In addition, proteins act as antibodies which bind to infectious or foreign particles. Antibodies are one of the body's main lines of defense. Protein also makes up the structure and support of every cell in the body. Transport proteins allow substances to move in and out of the cells. When we eat whole proteins, the groups of amino acids are broken down into individual amino acids then re-sequenced into whichever amino acids our bodies need at that particular moment. The amino acids are linked and folded in different ways. There are twenty types of amino acids found in proteins which fall into three main groups: Essential amino acids: You must get these from your diet, as they cannot be made by your body. Non-essential amino acids: These are produced by the body. Conditional amino acids: These are ones that we would normally be able to produce in the necessary amount, but during times of stress and illness we need more.

Write an article based on this "Learn about your animal. Apply your animal's wisdom to your own life. Be open to messages. Honor your animal." Article:

Once you have identified your animal, learn everything you can about it. What does it eat, and where does it live? Read about its history, behaviors, and the way it is portrayed in literature and the media. What does this animal represent? An animal's particular wisdom is called its "medicine," or power. This medicine can be used to help during a time of need. For example, a hawk's medicine might be its ability to see clearly when others cannot. If possible, spend time near your animal's habitat. Do not be disruptive, but try to learn as much as you can about how the animal exists in the wild. Take what you have learned and use it to help you deal with making big decisions, confronting difficult situations, and reaching your goals. You can draw on your animal's wisdom in everyday life, too, in your treatment of others and the earth. Pay close attention each time your animal appears to you in any form. Do your best to interpret the messages the animal seems to be sending. Remember, the messages will not be straightforward, since animals do not communicate the same way humans do, so you will have to do some deep thinking to understand. Here are some questions to ask yourself: What emotions do you feel when the animal comes? Does the animal seem to be a sign of foreboding or comfort? Does the animal seem to be leading you in a certain direction? It is believed in shamanism that you gain a deeper connection with your spiritual animal by honoring it. In doing this, you are letting it know that its assistance in helping you with your life is appreciated. You can do this by standing up for the environment and animal rights and, in particular, the well being of your spirit animal. Remember that each time an animal species goes extinct, we lose the wisdom of that animal.

If you are using a phone this will happen automatically, but some GPS devices need to be manually updated. This will give you the latest information, topography, and directions. Find the "About" button, usually located in "Settings." Scroll down to see Map Information. If this is more than 6 months old, you will need to update. Plug your GPS into an internet-enabled computer using the cord that came with the unit. Perform an internet search for "your GPS + Map Update" follow the onscreen instructions. There are over 25 satellites orbiting earth that receive signals from your GPS and use those signals to determine your latitude and longitude. Developed by the army, GPS can accurately tell your location anywhere in the world by several feet -- as long as the signal can reach the satellites. Cell phone GPS uses cell towers and internet signals to find your location, so they won't work in the wilderness. GPS needs a clear view of the sky to accurately communicate with the satellite's, so move away from overhangs or tall trees and head outside if you have issues. Generally, if you can see the sky, the GPS can as well. Tunnels, caves, and basements may all keep your GPS from communicating to satellites and working successfully. Most GPS devices are built in Asia, and are used to communicating with satellites over that area. Initializing your GPS acquaints it with your local area. To initialize a GPS, go to "Settings" and click "Initialize." Follow your GPS's manual if you have any problems finding the setting, and know that this may take up to 20 minutes. Turn your GPS off and restart it if you are having problems. Make sure you have a clear view of the sky. You may need to reset your GPS the first time you buy it by clearing the memory. Refer to the manual for instructions. This is especially useful when hiking. In the parking lot, find your GPS's satellite lock setting and have it get to work -- it usually takes several minutes. Signs that you have a bad signal are changing directions, jittery locations, or error messages. Because a GPS can run out of battery, lose signal, or break, you should never rely on it completely to get around. While useful, you need to be prepared in case you cannot use it for some reason. Summary:

Download the latest map updates if your directions are incorrect. Know that GPS uses satellites to locate you. Get into the open. Initialize your GPS when you buy it. Use "Satellite Lock" before you head out. Know that GPS's are not replacements for maps and compasses.

Summarize the following: Violets can grow in a wide variety of climates, but they might not be possible to grow in your area. Violets grow in hardiness zones 5-8. These zones are based on average annual temperatures, and the lower the number, the colder the climate. To check your hardiness zone, visit http://planthardiness.ars.usda.gov/PHZMWeb/. Violets require deep, well-draining soil. The type of soil can vary, as violets are fairly tolerant flowers. Adding some compost or fertilizer will supply the additional nutrients that will ensure your violets thrive. Violets can handle full sun in colder climates, but if you live in warmer areas, it’s best to ensure your violets get regular shade. One idea is to plant them near or under deciduous trees, so they have shade during the summer but full sunlight in winter. Summary:

Determine your hardiness zone. Get soil that is well drained and disease free. Select an area with partial shade.

Summarize this article: If your dog is hungry or left out in the yard all day every day, she will probably bark. No amount of training or behavioral techniques will subdue her need for food and comfort. Make sure your dog always has plenty of cool, clean water to drink any time she needs it, two to three nutritious meals each day, and access to the inside of your home. Sometimes barking is your dog's way of indicating to you that she is injured or sick. If there is a chance that your dog might have some medical problem or injury, you should take her to see a vet as soon as possible. Teaching your dog the "quiet" command is an excellent training technique. It will be useful for any kind of problem barking, though it may be the only option for certain behavioral problems like territorial alarm barking. Any time your dog starts barking unnecessarily, hold up a treat to distract her from the perceived intruder. Once your dog has stopped barking, say the word "quiet" and give her the treat. Gradually lengthen the duration of time she must be quiet before getting the treat. Eventually, she should reach a point where simply saying the word "quiet" without showing her a treat will elicit a silent response. Exercise is a great way to curb problem behavior, including excessive barking. Whether your dog is anxious, territorial, or simply bored, getting a good workout will probably help reduce the frequency and intensity of her problem barking. Depending on your dog's age and physical abilities, you can exercise her in a number of ways. Long walks are good for older dogs, while younger dogs might enjoy going jogging with you, chasing a ball for a game of fetch, playing tug-of-war, or other interactive toys. If your dog has barking problems whenever she sees or hears something outside, a simple solution might be to block her access to seeing or hearing that trigger. If she stands at the window and barks, try putting up curtains or blinds so she can't see passing people or animals. If the sounds she hears outside tend to set her off, try leaving a radio on during the day to distract her and muffle the sounds outside your home. There are many different types of dog behavior specialists, each with their own unique qualifications. No matter what kind of expert you choose, you should always check the person's qualifications and look for recommendations or reviews online. If you can't find an expert online, ask your vet for recommendations on an expert who can help your dog with her unique needs. Trainers are often certified, but not always. Trainers may also go by other titles, such as behavior counselor, pet therapist, and pet psychologist. Certified Professional Dog Trainers (CPDTs) are certified by an independent organization. In order to become certified, a prospective CPDT must complete a rigorous hands-on training program, pass a standardized test, and provide letters of recommendation. Behaviorists may have a number of different types of titles, but essentially any kind of behaviorist must have earned a master's degree or a PhD in animal behavior. Typically a behaviorist with a doctoral degree will be called a Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist (CAAB), while a behaviorist with a master's degree will be called an Associate Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist (ACAAB). Bark deterrents like anti-bark collars are very unpleasant for dogs, and should only be used as a last resort when no other method has worked. Some people oppose bark collars because of the perception that these bark deterrents are punishment devices. Training works much better than punishment devices, and training will of course provide the best long-term solutions to behavioral problems, but if training hasn't worked for your dog and your landlord has threatened eviction or police intervention, you may need to resort to a bark collar. Citronella collars deliver a small, short blast of citronella every time the dog barks. These types of collars have been shown to be at least as effective as electronic collars, and do not risk causing any pain or real discomfort to the dog. Ultrasonic bark collars deliver an ultrasonic noise that only dogs can hear. It is unpleasant for the dog, but does not cause any real pain. Shock collars are similar to citronella and ultrasonic collars, but instead deliver a brief electric shock to the dog's neck. These collars typically have a number of different settings to change how intense the shock is, and if using one of these collars it is best to use the lowest setting possible to prevent injury to the dog. Again, these should only be used as an absolute last resort. Summary:

Meet your dog's needs. Rule out medical problems. Use training methods. Give her more exercise. Block what bothers her. Consult an expert. Try bark deterrents.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? Two fractions that are different but equivalent have, by definition, numerators and denominators that are multiples of each other. In other words, multiplying the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number will produce an equivalent fraction. Though the numbers in the new fraction will be different, the fractions will have the same value. For instance, if we take the fraction 4/8 and multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2, we get (4×2)/(8×2) = 8/16. These two fractions are equivalent. (4×2)/(8×2) is essentially the same as 4/8 × 2/2 Remember that when multiplying two fractions, we multiply across, meaning numerator to numerator and denominator to denominator. Notice that 2/2 equals 1 when you carry out the division. Thus, it's easy to see why 4/8 and 8/16 are equivalent since multiplying 4/8 × (2/2) = 4/8 still. The same way it’s fair to say that 4/8 = 8/16. Any given fraction has an infinite number of equivalent fractions. You can multiply the numerator and denominator by any whole number, no matter how large or small to obtain an equivalent fraction. Like multiplication, division can also be used to find a new fraction that's equivalent to your starting fraction. Simply divide the numerator and the denominator of a fraction by the same number to obtain an equivalent fraction. There is one caveat to this process--the resulting fraction must have whole numbers in both the numerator and denominator to be valid. For instance, let's look at 4/8 again. If, instead of multiplying, we divide both the numerator and denominator by 2, we get (4 ÷ 2)/(8 ÷ 2) = 2/4. 2 and 4 are both whole numbers, so this equivalent fraction is valid. Summary:

Multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number. Divide the numerator and denominator by the same number.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Use your fingers to remove any loose burrs or awns from the surface of your dog's coat. Be very gentle, remembering that the dog may not like you pulling at its fur. Try to remove the burrs by detangling the fur around it with your fingers. You may need to wear gloves to avoid getting pricked, particularly with the harder, spike-like burrs. Use a wide-toothed metal dog comb or hair pick. Work the comb under any visible burrs and gently pull them out. This works best on loosely adhering or single burrs or awns. If the burr or awn in severely tangled, you can start at the edge of the tangle and work your way in. You can use a pliers to crush the burr head, to break it up into smaller pieces. This should make it easier to remove. Be careful with your fingers and your dog's skin when attempting this. You don't want to pinch either. Sometimes, especially in long-haired dogs with undercoats that are deeply tangled, the burrs will need to be shaved or cut off. This should be done very carefully, as the skin can be burned by hot clipper heads or cut by sharp scissors. A good way of doing this is to work a comb under the tangle and then clip or cut above the comb. This can help protect the skin from injury. If you are hesitant to cut the burrs out of your dog's coat, take it to get done by a groomer. They should be skilled at this safely cutting your dog's fur. Summary:

Remove visible burrs. Comb the dog. Break tough burs into pieces. Cut out stubborn burrs.

Article: There's a reason most of us enjoyed story time more than any other school activity, and you can use this appeal to create an awesome interactive presentation. Storytelling captures your audience's attention, leaves them wondering what will happen next, and helps them retain the information. Apply these tips to tell a good story during your presentation: Public-speaking experts recommend opening your story by appealing to what people know or think they know about a specific topic. This helps establish rapport with your audience. Then, prompt the audience to reconsider what they thought they knew by questioning the status quo. For example, what if what we thought about something was wrong, or what if there was something else going on? Keep exploring this dichotomy during your presentation, which builds suspense and keeps students on the edge of their seats waiting for resolution to the question. Make sure you have a powerful ending to your story that encourages or inspires your audience to continue thinking about the presentation and the questions you raised. Point out the benefits or possibilities of this new way of thinking, and suggest what still needs to be considered. Videos are an excellent way to make your presentation more interactive because you can use the video to encourage discussion, elicit a response from students, and set the right mood for your presentation. Look for a video or clip that emphasizes a point you would like to make or that you feel gets the audience in the right mindset to discuss a topic. Videos can also be helpful if there's a feeling, emotion, or sentiment that's difficult to convey while standing in front of a group of students. Using a video during your presentation also gives you a few minutes to compose your thoughts, and takes away some of the pressure on you as the presenter. Before playing the video, ask students to keep a few questions in mind or pay attention to something specific such as the language, scenery, or other aspect of the video so they are prepared for the discussion you want to have afterward. While videos can help you design a more interactive presentation that will impress students, don't forget about other potential props you can use to engage with and maintain your audience's focus. Although the props you will use depends on the subject of your presentation, here are a few general recommendations to help your audience visualize what you are discussing: Photographs. Pieces of art or artifacts. Advertisements. 3-D models or figures. If you decide to make use of props, be sure to talk about these and refer to them during your presentation. For example, simply displaying a photograph on a slide won't have the same impact as actually discussing the photograph. Try asking audience members questions about what they see and notice about the photograph. An easy way to make your presentation interactive is to invite other people to participate and demonstrate a point. Ask an audience member to come up on stage or to the front of the classroom and have them join you in an activity or assist you with some aspect of your presentation. Make sure you thank them in front of the audience and express your appreciation for their help. It can be helpful to ask for a volunteer before the presentation starts so you aren't putting people on the spot. This way, you will also have time to explain what you want the volunteer to do and make sure they aren't surprised or uncomfortable. Selecting a volunteer before the presentation will save you time and make sure it flows smoothly. Think about whether there might be a guest speaker or someone who could address a specific topic better than you or in a more engaging manner. If you are preparing this presentation for a class, it's a good idea to check with your teacher first to make sure they are okay with you inviting a guest speaker or participant. We usually associate presentations with a watchful, quiet, and still audience, but research suggests that our minds quickly wander and we can be easily distracted while watching presentations. Keep this in mind, and give your audience the opportunity to move around under your direction. When you ask students a question, for example, request they show their hands to answer yes or no. You could also ask your audience to respond to a question by sitting or standing. Design an activity that requires students to split into small groups or move around the room. This will help refocus their attention on the matter at hand and your presentation. If students will not volunteer to participate or you want their input and interaction at a specific point, don't be afraid to call on people and request their help. Calling on students by name helps establish a rapport with your audience and may make them more comfortable sharing. If you don't know their names, you can start out by asking a student to identify themselves before answering the question. It can be effective to call on students who seem more extroverted at first, and then ask more reserved students later in your presentation. Remember, even if their response is not what you expected or is incorrect, make sure you acknowledge their contribution and do not demean the student. If a student asks a question or makes a comment during a presentation, you can encourage further interaction by asking other students to answer the question or follow up on the comment. It can be helpful for the person giving the presentation to restate the question or comment when asking for audience input. Remember, the audience will follow your lead, so make sure you are polite and not dismissive of any questions or comments. You don't want students to be rude to one another. Instead of hoping that students will interact with you and the material during the presentation, set aside specific time for interaction. Here are some ideas for interactive opportunities: Ask the audience to break up into small groups and briefly discuss a specific concept, topic, or question related to the presentation. Then, come back together and invite the groups to share their thoughts with the rest of the students. If you are looking at an image, referring to a reading, or using a map, ask students what they see rather than telling them how to interpret the material. This will ensure there is more discussion and conversation. Ask students to prepare a few discussion questions prior to the presentation. This makes sure everyone has thought about the material and is ready to take part in the presentation. What is a summary?

Tell a story. Include videos. Use other props. Don't do it alone. Give your audience the opportunity to move around. Call on people. Invite other students to answer questions. Set aside time for interaction.

Article: As with any exercise regimen, you might be more likely to quit walking if you try to do too much too soon. You also could strain your muscles. Be patient and work up to longer walks. Even though walking is a low-impact exercise, your muscles, joints and feet must adjust to new activity levels to avoid soreness and injury. Motivate yourself by remembering that you can burn about 400 calories from a brisk walk, although it takes about 5 miles to do so. If you want to lose weight, it’s a good idea to also reduce how many calories you eat per day and to eat healthier unprocessed foods. Try to add 2,000 steps into your daily routine when you first start walking. Sometimes you can add steps just by making small lifestyle choices every single day, such as taking the stairs at work when you could take the elevator. If you don’t see weight loss right away, it might be because you are starting to build up muscle, which is good. Be patient, and you will see results over the course of time. Slowly add more steps each week. If you prefer to have a few days off during any given week, that’s fine too. Just aim to walk a total of around 2.5 hours per week. One benefit of walking is that you don’t need a lot of specialized equipment to do it. You can walk wherever you are, even if you are on vacation. You don’t need to be in great shape to start doing it. You can go over the 2.5 hours per week recommendation as you slowly build your endurance for longer distances. The standard official health advice recommends 150 minutes of physical activity a week. All of the fitness advice, although it might vary by a few minutes here or there, consistently recommends the same thing: Walking for several hours a week, however you divide those hours up, has enormous healthy benefits. Eventually, try to walk at least 30 to 45 minutes at a time. The number one key to many forms of exercise is consistency. If you walk irregularly or, say, once a month, you’re not going to see a lot of benefits. Make walking something you do regularly. If you build walking into your regular activities on a daily basis (or at least several times a week), you could see many health benefits. Walking reduces the risk factors that cause heart disease and strokes. Indeed, walking can cut your risk of heart disease by 30 percent. It can also help control the risk of diabetes and cancer. Always check with your doctor before embarking on any new physical activity, especially if you have a medical condition. Lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol, and sharper mental acuity are all benefits from regular walking activity, which is a low-cost way to improve your health. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Start gradually. Aim to walk for 21 minutes per day. Walk almost every day.

Write an article based on this summary: Pull the old sole off with pliers. Clean off any old glue using acetone. Roughen up the bottom of the shoe and the new sole with sandpaper. Apply shoe sole adhesive to the new sole with a brush or cotton ball. Put the new sole in place and press it tightly against the shoe. Clamp the sole to the shoe using rubber bands, duct tape, or weights. Wait 24 hours before using the shoe again. Article:

Even if the sole is starting to come loose, you will probably need pliers to pull it off the shoe entirely. Hold the shoe firmly and pull on the edge of the sole with pliers, moving the sole away from the bottom of the shoe. If the sole doesn’t come off easily, try wedging a paint scraper or butterknife between the sole and the shoe as you pull on the sole with pliers. You can also use a heat gun or hair dryer to warm up the glue that attaches the sole, which will make it easier to remove. There may still be some dried glue remnants on the bottom of your shoe where the sole was attached. Pour a little acetone or nail polish remover on a rag and scrub the bottom of your shoe with it. The glue should dissolve and scrub off. Clean any dirt or residual grime off the shoe as well. Rough surfaces hold together better with glue than smooth ones. Use 120-grit sandpaper to scratch up the bottom of the shoe and the top of the sole until their textures appear rougher. Follow the instructions on the adhesive for application. Some adhesives must sit for a few minutes, or “cure,” before the item can be put in place. Some adhesives require heat to be activated Shoe Goo is a common and effective shoe sole adhesive, and is available in many shoe shops, sports supply outlets, and department stores. If the adhesive needs to cure before it’s used, wait for as long as the instructions indicate before putting the sole on. Start at the front and lay the sole gradually on the shoe, making sure the edges line up properly. Once it’s in place, apply pressure to stick it firmly on the bottom of the shoe. The sole needs to be pressed tightly against the shoe for the two surfaces to adhere. Secure the sole in place by wrapping rubber bands or duct tape around the shoe, or by placing it on the ground and setting weights on top of it to press the shoe into the sole. It can be helpful to stuff the shoe with paper first so that it keeps its shape while being clamped. Most shoe sole adhesives take at least a full day to set. Let your shoe sit somewhere cool and dry where it’s not in danger of being moved or touched.

Write an article based on this "Get on a solid sleep schedule. Start a new hobby. Commit to regular reorganizing and cleaning. Find a work/life balance." Article:

If you want to stay organized and on top of things, solid sleep is vital. Work on establishing a healthy sleep cycle so you'll have the energy you need to stay organized and on-track throughout the day. Go to sleep and wake up at the same time each day. Your body will adapt to a regular sleep/wake cycle, so try to stay on schedule even on the weekends. Form a relaxing bedtime ritual to signal to your body that it's time to wind down. You could read a book, do a crossword puzzle, take a warm bath, and so on. Just avoid using your computer close to bed time, as blue light emitted from electronic screens can stimulate your brain and make sleep difficult. Make sure your room is comfortable. If there are any sheets, blankets, or pillows that irritate your skin, replace them with higher quality items. A great way to reorganize your life is to find a new way to pass the time. Think about starting a new hobby. This can give you something to do during your down time, reducing feelings of stress or boredom. Find something that interests you personally. Many people find doing something creative, like writing or playing a musical instrument, can help them feel balanced and fulfilled. You can also look into getting active. Exercise can make you feel more relaxed and boost your energy, allowing you to take the time necessary to get your life in shape. You could take up running, jogging, walking, biking, or any form of physical activity you enjoy. Organization and cleaning must happen on a regular basis. Your new, clean apartment or house will not stay that way if you don't commit to regular cleaning. Get on a schedule of cleaning, reorganizing, and downsizing on a regular basis. You can set specific days of the week aside for cleaning. For example, maybe you have Tuesday afternoons off. This might be a good time to work on giving your house a quick cleaning. You may want to set aside a day once a month to reorganize and declutter. You can, for example, take the first Saturday of each month as a chance to get rid of unwanted items in your home and reorganize anything that's not working. Your career is important, but if it's eating up your ability to relax you may have trouble staying organized and on track. Find ways to find a solid work/life balance so you can feel happier and more fulfilled in your life. Track your time in a journal. See how much time you spend on work per week. You should also track how work affects your mood, and the time you spend worrying or angry over work. Form a schedule for yourself. Set aside time at least once a day for yourself. Allow yourself not to think about work during certain blocks of time. For example, at 6 o'clock every night you'll play the piano for an hour and not think about your job. Talk with co-workers. They may also struggle with work/life balance, especially if you work in a demanding field, and may have advice on how to find the balance.

There are a lot of cliches that people use when other people are going through hard times, and more often than not these common responses just feel insincere or painful to the recipient. Examples of what not to say include: "God will never give you more than you can handle," or its even-worse variation, "This is God's will." Sometimes well meaning people of faith say this phrase, and they may truly believe it, but it can feel very harsh to the recipient, especially if she is experiencing something that is very difficult or overwhelming. Also, the person may not believe in God. "I know how you feel." Sometimes people say this phrase to others who are going through hard times, and while its true that everyone has experienced trials in life, it's impossible to know how someone else is feeling. This phrase is even worse if its accompanied by personal anecdotes that really don't match the intensity of what the sufferer is experiencing. For example, if someone is facing the loss of a limb, don't equate it to the time that you broke your arm. It's not the same thing. However, if you have truly had an experience that is on par with the experience the sufferer is going through, it's ok to talk about and say "I've been through something similar." You'll be ok." This is a common phrase when people don't know what to say, and we often say it more as a wish than a statement of fact. In fact, you don't know if someone will be ok, and in many cases of chronic or terminal illness, the person will NOT be ok. They may die, or be condemned to a life of physical suffering. Saying they will be ok minimizes the experience they are having. "At least..." Don't minimize the person's suffering by suggesting they should be thankful that their situation isn't worse. In particular, avoid discussing minor health issues such as a headache or a cold. This can vary depending on your relationship with the person and the length of their illness. If they are chronically ill, or a very close confidant, it is more likely to be appropriate to discuss things that you're going through. While its true that its important to be sensitive to the feelings of someone who is sick, sometimes we overcompensate for our fear of doing the wrong thing by doing nothing at all. Its better to stick your foot in your mouth and apologize than it is to just ignore your sick friend altogether. If you do mess up and say something insensitive, just say, "I don't know why I said that. I really don't know what to say. This situation is just very hard." Your friend will understand. Try to pay attention to your friend's cues so that you don't visit too frequently or overstay your welcome. When someone is extremely sick especially, it can be very difficult to carry on a conversation and they won't want to offend you so may over-tax themselves by trying to please you. If your friend seems distracted by television or her phone, or seems like she is struggling to fall asleep, those might be signs that she is growing tired of the visit. Don't take it personally! Just remember she is dealing with lot, both physically and emotionally, and it can be taxing. Be mindful of the time, and be sure that you don't extend your stay into mealtimes or other times that your friend may need to be alone. Ask if your friend would like you to pick up some food for them or cook them a meal if you plan to visit during mealtime. Summary:

Watch out for common faux pas. Don't complain about your own health problems. Don't let fear of doing the wrong thing keep you from doing anything at all. Be considerate.

Summarize the following: Cleaning businesses generally target one of two markets: Either commercial or consumer. Commercial services target businesses. Consumer-based services target individual residences. You should decide which market you will focus on. Cleaning services with consumer target markets usually involve window cleaners or maids who clean personal homes. Cleaning services with commercial target markets usually involve janitorial services. They sometimes offer more services than maid services, such as carpet cleaning. Some cleaning businesses market to a niche clientele within a target market. You should carefully define what kind of customers you will seek. For example, commercial cleaning services need to decide whether they are serving smaller businesses or huge companies. Depending on your budget, it might be a good idea to start small so you can do the cleaning yourself and grow to larger projects as you can afford to add more staff. You need to pick whether you want to run your cleaning business independently or as part of a franchise. There are advantages and disadvantages to choosing either route. Franchises will offer you some marketing support. They will provide guidance about starting the business, so they can be helpful on the front end if you’ve never run a business before. They will give you guidelines and support so you don’t have to do as much research about the market. You will already have a proven brand. Over time, though, you will invest more money in a franchise. If you are independent, you can choose your own services, name, and formula. You will need to get a state business license if your state requires one. You also might need other permits depending on the community where your business is located. Contact the state business office in the state where your company would be headquartered to determine which state permits or licenses are needed. You should also contact the business office at your local city, village, or town hall to ask which permits are needed and to make sure you are complying with all zoning regulations. You may need to obtain permits for things like signage. You need to submit some paperwork to start a business with the federal Internal Revenue Service. Apply for an Employer Identification Number with the IRS. You can do so online. This is the number that will be used to identify your business. Decide the structure of the business entity you are trying to create. For example, will your business be a sole proprietorship or a corporation? Sole proprietorships are businesses run solely by you. It's probably a good idea to consult a tax attorney for advice on the different kinds of business structures. Make sure that you have all employees fill out the proper tax forms. One of the most important things you can do is choose the right name. This is how customers will know your brand. It’s smarter to choose a name that is very literal, like “Professional Cleaning Service” with your last name or something like that. Choosing a vague or cute name probably will turn off professional customers. Make sure your business name is not too similar to other cleaning services in the area. It’s possible to run a cleaning service from your home. That’s because, unlike many businesses, with a cleaning service, customers won’t come to your home; you go to theirs (or their business). Check zoning ordinances at your city, town or village hall to make sure you can have commercial activities in your home. Running the business out of your home might be banned by local ordinance or there just might be restrictions on issues associated with a business, like traffic and signage. If you choose a commercial location, it can help you brand your business with signage. However, it doesn’t make sense to pay for a prime location for a business with customers who won’t actually come to the business. So focus more on having enough work space for things like repairing equipment. Summary:

Determine your target market. Decide whether to franchise. Get proper licenses and permits. Follow all IRS rules. Determine your business name. Choose whether to run your business out of your home.

Summarize this article: A period is a standard sign of puberty. There are ways of telling if your period is coming. One way of telling if your period is near is vaginal discharge. Discharge is a yellow/white substance that appears in your underwear. Once you get your discharge, your period could come within 6 months to up to 2 years time. Some girls choose to wear a pantyliner to protect their underwear from discharge. You can expect your period about two years after you get breast buds. Just after your breasts start to form, you'll probably start growing pubic hair (hair on and around your private regions).It will be soft and thin at first, but it’ll get coarser over time. Your period usually arrives around one to two years after public hair growth. Summary:

Be aware that you can get your period anytime between ages 9 to 16. Know the signs. Note that your breasts will start to grow. Expect to see pubic hair grow.

Summarize this article in one sentence. Place a piece of ice in a sealable plastic bag to avoid any water damage caused by drips from the ice. Take a piece of ice and slowly rub all over the gum. The coldness of the ice will harden the gum, making it easier to chip away later. If the leather item is small enough, place it in a plastic bag and then put it in the freezer for about an hour. Putting the item in the freezer will have a similar effect as the ice--the gum will harden and become easier to chip away from the leather. If you don’t have a plastic bag, you can rub the ice directly on the gum. Make sure that if the ice drips onto the leather, you wipe it up immediately, as water left on leather for too long can stain it. Use a hard, flat edge to remove the gum from the leather. In a pinch, a fingernail will do the trick, as will a credit card, butter knife or even a metal spoon. Avoid very sharp items or else you may gouge the leather. The hardened gum should scrape off easily. If you chose to put your piece of leather in a bag and into the freezer, remove it and chip it away with a hard, flat-edged tool as listed above. After you have done this, proceed with all of the other steps listed in this method. Use a damp, clean cloth to rub some saddle soap onto the spot where the gum was until you have a light lather on the leather. Clean any remaining spot where the gum was stuck to the leather with the saddle soap lather, using circular motions to rub it into the spot. Scrub any small bits of gum remaining with a soft, dampened toothbrush. The toothbrush bristles will work to dislodge the lathered gum. The gum should be completely removed when you are done with the toothbrush. Wipe off the saddle soap with a second, damp clean cloth. You don’t want to wash the lather away with water because water, if left on the leather for too long, will damage the color of the leather. The leather conditioner will help to ensure that there is no discoloration caused by the gum, soap lather, and damp cloth. Summary:

Rub the gum with ice. Chip away the hardened gum. Apply some saddle soap to the spot. Use the saddle soap to get rid of any gum remnants. Use a toothbrush for the hard to remove bits. Remove the saddle soap lather. Use a leather conditioner on the spot after it has dried.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? LA casual style starts with the basic tee. It turns out this classic item is incredibly versatile. It’s an appropriate top for almost any situation if you style it right. Your collection should include a variety of colors and cuts that you can mix and match with pants or skirts to create endless different looks. Black, white and grey are the essentials, but don't be afraid to wear brighter colors like pink and yellow to stand out. Women in LA wear t-shirts with everything from skinny jeans and leggings to miniskirts or over dresses. If you want to dress up your look, wear a t-shirt made out of silk or another upscale fabric. You could also wear a t-shirt dress for a dressier take on the classic. Men wear t-shirts with either jeans or slacks. Dark, fitted t-shirts add a casual yet upscale urban vibe to your look. Denim is a closet staple for both men and women in LA. Casual and chic, jeans can be dressed down or up to suit almost any occasion. Most people have several pairs of jeans in different rinses and fits. At the very least, have a pair of fitted skinny jeans and another pair of looser jeans for the days when you really want to feel casual. To dress up a look, wear fitted, dark wash jeans. Women can throw on heels to instantly make denim look classier. Don't forget denim in other forms, like skirts, shirts and jackets. Since it’s home to thousands of notable people, it’s no surprise that LA is fashion forward. Walk down the street and you’ll see people wearing a variety of cuts and designs that break out of the mold. LA is a good place to experiment with clothes you might not find in a standard suburban mall. Drapey, asymmetrical cuts are popular for women. Try a simple shift dress with an interesting cut-out back or a raw edge along the bottom, or wear a flowy tunic over leggings or tight shorts. If you want to look a bit more feminine or you're going out for a lunch date, a dress is always the best option. Go for loose jersey dresses with thin straps. For men, try a jackets or blazer with an interesting cut over a basic t-shirt. People in LA know that when the sun goes down, the temperature drops a few degrees. The evenings are pleasantly chilly compared to the blazing hot days. If you plan to be out past sundown, bring along a light layer you can throw on after dark. Drapey cardigans, fitted leather jackets, and trenches are all popular in LA. Styles for men in include jackets and blazers or sweatshirts thrown on when the sun goes down. While the temperature never drops too far below 50 °F (10 °C) in LA, it’s still a good idea to have a jacket or two in your closet for when it’s foggy and cold. Most of your wardrobe can make the transition from summer to winter if you're savvy about layering for warmth. A big collection of scarves will also help you stay warm in style. Women can wear warm tights or leggings under skirts, and wear sweaters and jackets over tanks and tees. Men can make the transition by swapping shorts for long pants and wearing fitted cardigans and jackets over tees. Los Angelenos are concerned about health and wellness, so they care about what materials are used in the fabrics they wear every day. You won't see a lot of polyester and plastic in an LA casual wardrobe. Natural fabrics like cotton or wool blends and leather are the go-to choices. Organic fabrics and dyes are becoming more common. Check out companies that have organic clothing lines. Manufacturing practices are also important to people in LA. Look for casual clothes that were locally made, rather than factory-produced in another country. Summary:

Start growing your t-shirt collection. Fill your closet with denim. Play with interesting cuts. Throw on a sweater or jacket. Gear up for winter. Look for natural fabrics.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: everything. Take the objects in your house and label them with their English equivalent. The goal is to get your mind thinking in English. When it's right there, it'll be impossible to ignore. When you've labeled everything and find yourself thinking, "Where is my blanket?" try to think of the word (or sentence) in English. When you find your blanket, were you right? Don't write on the objects--grab a slip of paper and tape it on sturdily. It's very easy to get caught up in memorizing words when pronunciation can be just as important. Unfortunately, English has exceptions to most rules. But there are still some general guidelines you can abide by: Always say the last sounds in the word. Certain Asian dialects find this rather difficult. If you know you're guilty of this, keep it in mind. "Streets" is not pronounced stree. The "ts" is very important in retaining meaning. Take the sentence "I project the project will end soon." Confusing, huh? Isn't English SVO? Yes, and this sentence is too. The first "project" (verb) is pronounced pro-JECT; the second (noun) is pronounced PRO-ject. The same is true for all verb-noun pairs: nouns stress the first syllable, verbs the second. Though there are definite exceptions, most nouns in English have the first syllable stressed. Think of the nouns in your house: "BED-room," "BATH-room," "KITCH-en," "TA-ble," "WIN-dow," "SO-fa," "WA-ter," "JACK-et," "TOI-let," etc. There are meaningful differences between American, British, and Australian English. Before you go about increasing your vocabulary, which one appeals to you? Sometimes it's very important to know who you're speaking to. If you tell an American, Canadian, or Australian you're not wearing pants, they might wonder if you're wearing shorts, a dress, a skirt, or just in your underwear. If you tell a British person you're not wearing pants, you're going commando! In addition to vocabulary differences, the pronunciation differences are huge. Know these variations exist before you get confused with multiple correct pronunciations. Certain dictionaries use British English and certain dictionaries prefer American. Choose the one that's best for you. Summary:

Label Keep an eye on your pronunciation. Pick a dialect.

Article: A crowdfunding campaign showcases an entrepreneur’s idea to the public, asking for contributions to make the entrepreneur’s vision into reality. In order to do that effectively, the crowd needs to be convinced the entrepreneur’s vision is something to be pursued. You have to do more than just tell your story. The crowd needs to identify with the story you’re telling. Your good idea gets them to listen to you and give you their time, but it’s your story that gets them to give to you at the exclusion of everyone else. So, if you started selling prosthetic limbs because you lost your leg in Iraq, tell the story of how you lost your leg and how it lead you to want to create better products. A crowdfunding campaign isn’t promising a return on investment. It offers the chance to help fund the development of a project—for the donor to feel like they are part of the story you told so well. But they don’t want to be a part of a tragedy or a farce, so they can’t feel like they’re wasting their money. To avoid that, you need to appear knowledgeable and competent. Even if you don’t realize it, you’re already the world’s foremost authority on your project. Still, you need to organize your thinking about it. Learn it cold. You’ll know you’re ready when you know it so well you can immediately and fluently explain to anyone what your goals and projections are at six months, one year, eighteen months and two years from startup. Turn yourself into a walking infomercial/business plan. You want to create buzz around your campaign, because campaigns with buzz make the most money. One way to create buzz is by setting and meeting funding goals. Set goals at intervals like 10%, 25%, 50%, and so on. In order to meet your milestones, lean heavily on your personal network (especially in the beginning). Hit up the usual suspects, like your immediate family and your regular circle of friends, but don’t stop there. That Facebook friend from high school you haven’t spoken to in six years? There’s never been a better time to catch up. Do something special for your donors when you reach each milestone. The quicker you hit milestones, the more momentum you’ll have, and the more funding you’ll get. For example, if your crowdfunding goal is to open a restaurant, you could send each of your donors a sweet treat from your kitchen when you hit each milestone. Even if your donors are mostly friends and family in the beginning, that’s ok. Treating them like customers makes you seem more professional. Most people’s personal networks aren’t large enough to get them all the way to their funding goal. So once you’ve tapped your personal networks, kick it up a notch. Begin your social media campaign in earnest after you’ve hit a milestone or two. There’s nothing sadder than going to the landing page of a crowdfunding appeal and seeing that no one’s donated anything yet. You can try engineering a social media campaign yourself or you can pay a social media marketer to do it for you. If you’re the type with 3,000 Facebook friends, you’ll probably get a lot of mileage from a do it yourself effort. If you’re the type with 300 (which is an average number, don’t feel bad), you might want to bring in some help by paying someone. The closer you are to getting funded, the more professional and poised for success you need to seem. So, while you might have been able to skimp on production values in the beginning, leave some money in reserve to add polish and increase production values as you go. For example, the longer your campaign goes on, the more important it is for you to attend to things like integrating logos into your landing page and emails and paying for professional video editing for your funding pitches. What is a summary?

Craft a compelling story. Develop your idea thoroughly. Leverage your network to hit milestones quickly. Grow your audience. Create more polished appeals as you get closer to your goal.

Article: As with washing, drying flannel sheets with too high a temperature may lead to shrinkage and pilling. To prevent this, always select the lowest available heat setting, or simply let your sheets tumble dry. It will take longer, but it will be worth it to preserve the comfortable feel of your bedding. Give yourself plenty of time to get your laundry taken care of so you won’t have to worry about soggy sheets at bedtime. If space permits, you might also choose to dry your flannel sheets by hanging them up. After removing the sheets from the washer and wringing out any excess water, stretch out the sheets to expose as much surface area as possible and hang them on a clothesline or drying rack. Save money on your energy bill by getting the sheets started in the dryer, then letting them finish air drying. If it’s a nice day, you can speed up the drying process by placing the damp sheets in direct sunlight. Not only will the warmth of the sun help them dry faster, sunlight also makes a great natural disinfectant and deodorizer. Once your sheets are dry, you can put them right back on your bed, or neatly fold them and stash them in the linen closet until cold weather comes around again. Leaving them to sit in a pile makes them more susceptible to wrinkles. Be sure to check your bedding for large pills, lint and loose threads. Give the sheets a good shake to fluff them up before making the bed. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Dry the sheets on low heat. Allow the sheets to air dry. Replace or put away the sheets.

Write an article based on this summary: Find your purpose. Focus on changing one thing at a time. Live in the moment using mindfulness. Let go of your need for control. Accept your circumstances for what they are. Remind yourself that setbacks are temporary. Article:

Having a purpose in life can help you find happiness, as well as stay positive and optimistic. If you’re working toward your purpose, your successes have more meaning and your hardships won’t seem as difficult. Journaling can help you find your purpose. Write your responses to questions like these: What do I want in life? What’s most important to me? Where do I see myself in 5 years? 10 years? What am I really good at? Consider how you enjoyed spending your time when you were growing up. This may connect to your purpose. Think about your personal beliefs. How could they give you purpose? It’s normal to be dissatisfied with parts of your life. For example, you might not like your job, or you might be having a fight with a sibling. Confront one issue at a time to avoid becoming overwhelmed. Make a list of what you want to change, then prioritize it. Start with what’s most important for you. Much of what weighs on your mind comes from the past or the future. You can let go of these worries by living in the present. Focus on just this moment right now, allowing yourself to fully experience it. Use your 5 senses to ground yourself in the moment. For example, smell the scents in the air, observe small details in the scene around you, and listen for the sounds you can pick out. Let go of distractions, such as your phone or earbuds. It’s normal to want to control every aspect of your life, but that’s an impossible goal. Trying to control everything actually makes you more stressed and less happy. Instead of trying to control every aspect of your life, focus on controlling the only thing you can -- your own reaction. Let other people take care of themselves. Don’t be afraid to delegate tasks. Remind yourself that you can’t eliminate difficult moments from your life, but you can approach them differently. This may sound defeatist, but it’s actually the first step to improving your outlook. Don’t hold off on living because you’re waiting for the right circumstances. Your life is happening now! It’s okay to try to change your circumstances, as long as you focus on yourself and not others. You can change you, but not anyone else. You will encounter setbacks, as they happen to everyone. It’s easy to get tripped up by them, but don’t let them trap you in a mindset of defeat. Instead, view them as stepping stones on your path to success. Tell yourself, “I have to fail to learn the lessons I need to be successful.”

Write an article based on this "Start clean. Create your mixture. Apply your mixture. Wear the mixture as a lip gloss." Article:

Wash your entire face and scrub your hands well, since you’ll be using your fingers during this process. If you’re wearing any lipstick or lip gloss, remove it before proceeding. You want to begin with completely clean lips. Take a damp washcloth and rub it gently over your lips, going back and forth over them several times. This will remove any dead skin cells. Scoop one tablespoon of Vaseline into a small container. Mix in two drops of cinnamon leaf essential oil (if you aren’t familiar with essential oils, you can buy them in most grocery stores on the health and wellness aisle). Make sure you are using cinnamon leaf oil, not cinnamon bark oil. Mixing with a toothpick is a handy trick. Cinnamon oil is a natural product and doesn’t generally cause any side effects to the skin. However, if your skin is very sensitive, or you are pregnant or nursing, it is suggested that you consult a physician before trying this method. Cinnamon oil, when applied to the lips, can also reduce anxiety associated with motion sickness while traveling. Another bonus – it freshens your breath Rub it gently on your lips for 2 to 3 minutes, and then allow it to sit on your lips. You’ll feel a slight tingling sensation, which is completely normal. The cinnamon mildly irritates the skin on your lips, causing them to redden and swell slightly, producing that tingly feeling. If you feel a burning, uncomfortable sensation rather than a tingling one, remove the mixture completely from your lips and start over, creating the mixture with 1 drop of cinnamon leaf oil rather than 2. After a few more minutes pass with the mixture on your lips, you’ll notice your lips slowly start to plump and redden slightly, creating a very natural looking pout. This effect will last several hours. Once the effect wears off, you can reapply your mixture as needed, using it just like a lip gloss.

Working with friends will give you all an advantage. Remember that your goal will be to share what cards you have with each other. You will need at least one friend. Too many friends will increase the risk of getting caught. Choosing friends who are trustworthy cheaters will work best. Selecting someone who isn't in line with your cheating can get you caught. Only select friends you have known for a long time. Make sure you feel that your friend will agree before asking. Select a signal that will communicate which cards are in each of your hands. Try to make your signals subtle and repeatable. Do not choose any signal that might be too obvious to other players outside your friends. Placement of chips Coughing Tapping the table Blinking Touching ears, eyes, nose, neck, or some other body part. Do not go into a game unpracticed. Practicing your signals and methods will help you to remain calm and not tip any other players off that you are working together to cheat Practicing reduces stress, which could get you caught.

Summarize the following: Using a trampoline can be very dangerous, so it is best to train first in a safe environment. Training happens in lessons for competitive sports including gymnastics and diving. There, a teacher or coach can help you learn how to use a trampoline properly. Improper use of a trampoline can lead to severe head and spinal injuries. Flipping increases your chances of this. Flips should not be attempted until you feel completely comfortable using a trampoline. The ideal area to place your trampoline is a level surface away from any obstacles, including trees, fences, and lawn equipment. Place the trampoline on absorbent ground such as a grassy lawn, wood chips, or sand. Add padded mats for extra protection. Proper cushioning shields you when you fall. The motion and momentum from flipping makes bone fractures more likely. Safety padding is brightly-colored shielding that goes around the edges of the trampoline, covering the frame and springs. Order padding online or choose a trampoline that has the thickest padding possible. The frame is a hard surface and can also cause fractures if you land on it. Never get on the trampoline until you have ordered a net and placed it securely around the trampoline. When you fall, the net will slow your momentum or catch you before you hit the ground. This is important in flipping because of all the movement you'll be doing. Bigger trampolines have enough space for more than one person, but this isn't safe. Besides the difficulty in controlling your motion when multiple people jump, the other person can easily bump into you and send you flying. The lighter person on the trampoline is more likely to get hurt. Jumping off while flipping creates a heavy impact that can damage your knees and break your ankles, but this applies to regular jumping too. Instead, stay in place until you come to a halt. Walk to the edge of the trampoline and step or slide off. Summary:

Get supervised training first. Choose a cushioned area. Install safety pads. Enclose the trampoline in a safety net. Limit it to one person on at a time. Don't jump off.

Summarize this article: Brushing the velvet will remove dirt and lint, and loosen any mats in the fabric. This prepares the fabric for treatment and can remove caked-on dirt before spot cleaning. When brushing accessories, make sure you’re getting into corners and areas where there might be hardware to remove dirt and lint. The suction will remove any dirt and lint, and the brush attachment will loosen up mats in the fabric to prepare it for cleaning. Be gentle and don’t push too hard on the fabric as you can crush the pile. To prevent further stains and dirt from damaging the fabric, you can vacuum your velvet once per week. You may need to add extra lemon juice to create more foam. You won’t be using any of the liquid portion of this mixture, so don’t worry about having excess liquid. If you’re cleaning the entire piece of furniture, you’ll probably need to add more baking soda and lemon juice as you work. Make sure there are a lot of bubbles while you’re mixing. If you need to, you can add more water and detergent to create the foam. Gently pick up some of the foam that was created by the mixture. You don’t need a large amount, just enough to cover the top of the cloth. You can remove excess foam with a dry area of the cloth. Let the area dry and brush it with the cloth or a clothing brush. For furniture, you should apply the foam by wiping in long strokes with the nap of the fabric. You should test this method in a small, inconspicuous area first, such as the inner lining or hem hem of a piece of clothing if it has velvet on it, or a non-visible portion of the furniture or accessory. Although the mixture might appear to dry quickly, give it some time to completely dry from the fabric and allow the pile of the velvet to return to its original form. Avoid using the item or piece of furniture during this time. If the stain is still present, apply another coat and allow it to dry again, repeating until the stain is gone. You can find protective coating for velvet furniture at department stores, furniture stores, or online. Make sure you’re misting the item by spraying at least 6 inches (15 cm) away from the fabric, rather than saturating it with the spray. After the spray dries, wipe the furniture with a clothing brush or lint-free cloth to remove any mats or creases. Protective coatings made specifically for delicate fabrics, such as Scotchguard and Nano Protector, are great solutions for accessories that tend to get dirty quickly. You can also use furniture protector spray to ensure waterproofing for velvet shoes. Applying a protective coating might void your item’s warranty, so make sure you check the care information before spraying the item with the solution. Summary:

Brush the item with a clothing brush or lint-free cloth before treating. Vacuum velvet furniture with the brush attachment. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda and ½ a cup of lemon juice to treat spots on furniture. Mix 1 tbsp delicate detergent and 2 cups of water to treat clothing and accessories. Skim the foam of the mixture with a lint-free cloth. Dab the foam onto to the spot using a lint-free cloth. Allow the item 3-5 hours to dry. Apply a protective coating to furniture or accessories to avoid new stains.

Summarize this article in one sentence. Go right up to him and introduce yourself if he doesn’t know who you are yet. Say: “Hi, I’m (your name),” then “And you are?” or “Who are you?” if you want to be a bit more playful and brazen. Repeat his name to help you remember it and let him know you are attentive: “Hey, Ryan, it’s really nice to meet you,” or “Oh, Sergio, I love that name!” You go to the same school so you have plenty in common to keep it from being awkward. You can break the ice by referencing how you’ve noticed him: “I see you walk past my gym class every day and I wanted to put a name to the face!” Start talking to him on Facebook or other social media. If you have the same lunch period, talk to him in line or, if you already know each other, sit at his table. If you have a class together, sit near him so you can talk easily or ask him a question about the subject. Get to know his friends so there might be an opportunity to hang out outside of school. Ask him questions and listen. If you don’t know each other very well yet, keep it simple with questions like “How was your day?” or “What do you like to do on the weekends?” Find out if he plays a sport, what kind of music he likes, what he likes to do in his free time. You don’t have to interview him or blast him with questions, but make sure you’re not just talking about yourself, which is easy to do. Find ways to show him that you remember what he’s told you. Wish him luck on his game or ask him if he’s listened to his favorite band’s new album. Don’t pry into personal details like his religion or family dynamic too soon, keep it light and playful. Find out what you have in common and let the conversation develop naturally. If you’re struggling to start a conversation, try making a comment that ends in a question. “I saw the basketball team got new uniforms, do you like them?” or “It looks like it’s gonna rain, doesn't it?” Summary:

Talk to him. Find casual ways to be around him. Get to know him.

What is a one-sentence summary of the following article? Get to know the owners of similar sites and get lots of people to link to you. One common mistake is to start advertising the website before it is even done. This is a terrible mistake and could easily lead to the downfall of your website as people find it half finished and vow never to return again as their time has been wasted. Create the website, and have its beginning features done before you open it up to the public. What does this mean? Don't post your URL to every person's wall on Facebook or advertise on YouTube (unless it's on your own channel or page). These types of advertising get passed off as spam and you'll end up with hate on your website. Instead, use keywords so that the site will show up on Google or Yahoo. Use a wide variety of keywords for more advertising. Summary:

Make yourself known in the world of whatever you're writing about. Create your website before you advertise. Advertise the right way.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Pour salt and/or vinegar into the pot. Add enough cold water that you will be able to submerge your fabric later. For berry dye, use 1/2 cup of salt for every eight cups of water. For plant dyes, use one part vinegar to every four parts water. Bring the solution to a boil over high heat. Reduce the temperature to medium-low to maintain a simmer. Submerge the fabric and allow the solution to simmer for one hour. You can use tongs to carefully lower the fabric into the simmering solution. Remove the pot from heat and allow it to cool. Remove the fabric from the pot and wring out the liquid. Hand wash the fabric with just cold water. If you’re in a hurry, you can drain the pot and cool down the fabric right away with cold water in the sink. Summary:

Fill a large pot with a fixative solution. Add fabric to simmering solution. Rinse out the fabric.

Article: Warming up your baby will relax her body, and provide relief to a tense and cramped stomach. To warm your baby, put her in a blanket.Curl up with your baby to provide your body heat. A warm bath may also help calm her tummy. Try massaging your baby's tummy in a circular motion, clockwise, to relieve pain and pressure in his gastrointestinal tract. You can use baby oil, warmed up between your hands. A massage improves blood circulation in the baby's stomach, which can help calm colic. You can help your baby do bicycling exercises that will prompt the acceleration of digestion and bowel movements. Be very gentle with your baby and do the exercise on a soft surface. Place your baby on her back. Take her legs and gently move them in a bicycling motion. Continue this exercise for a few minutes to achieve the full effect of the exercise. Laying your baby on his tummy can allow gas to escape more easily. Only do this when your baby is already old enough to roll over on his tummy and support his head. Letting him spend some time in this position will help relieve pressure caused by trapped gas. Only this when you are with your baby, and don't put your baby to sleep on his tummy. Sometimes this will be enough to put pressure on her stomach and keep it warm. Some of the positions include: Football hold — have the baby balanced along your arm and move gently back and forth. Nestled on your chest — with her stomach on your chest, and head under your chin. Put your baby in his car seat and go for a short drive. The rhythmic movements and humming of the car will settle your baby. If you do not have a car, you can try singing a song or playing quiet music, moving your baby with rhythmic movements. What is a summary?

Warm up your baby. Massage your baby to calm his stomach spasms. Help your baby do exercises that prompt bowel movement. Lay your baby on his tummy. Hold your baby in different positions. Drive your baby in your car to calm him.

Article: If you have friends or family members who have had IVF treatment before, talk to them about the clinic they used. Because they know you, they may have a recommendation for a place where you would feel comfortable. Getting IVF treatment means opening up and dealing with sensitive personal issues. You want to make sure that you feel comfortable and at ease in the IVF clinic where you get treatment. You also want to make sure that the doctors and nurses at the IVF clinic are people you get along with and feel comfortable around. They will help you feel less stressed about the whole situation. Before you decide on an IVF clinic, check out several so you can compare them and choose the best one that suits both your needs, your personality, and your budget. You can find some possibilities through an online search or a discussion with your gynecologist. Factors to consider when making your list include: Types of treatment offered Eligibility criteria Cost Location Ratings and reviews Birth and multiple birth rates Availability of counseling Most clinics offer a free initial consultation, during which they'll talk about the clinic and introduce you to some of the staff. You'll have the opportunity to ask the doctors questions and learn more about the treatments and services the clinic offers. You can also get a better idea of how well you get along with the people there and whether you feel comfortable in the clinic setting. Many clinics provide online consultations if you're not able to travel to the clinic's location immediately. Before you attend your initial consultations, make a list of questions to ask. If you ask the same questions at every clinic, you have a way to compare them more efficiently. Potential questions to ask include: What medications will I have to take? Can I get my own medications elsewhere or do I have to get them from you? How many times will I need to visit the clinic? What kind of counseling do you provide? How many counseling sessions are included in the overall price? Can you break down the costs of treatment? Are there any other costs that might arise? After you've had your initial consultations, take a look at the answers to your questions and use them to decide which clinic would be the best fit for you. Take how you felt about each clinic and its staff into consideration. Don't rely solely on cost. The cheapest IVF clinic might not necessarily be the best one for you. If your IVF isn't successful, it could end up costing you more in the long term. Be wary of IVF clinics that advertise better-than-average success rates. Although this might seem like a good thing, it usually indicates that the clinic is being less than honest about how they measure their success rate. What is a summary of what this article is about?

Ask friends and family for recommendations. Create a list of clinics you want to evaluate. Schedule an initial consultation with 3 to 4 clinics. Ask the same questions at each clinic. Compare the clinics to make your final decision.

Write an article based on this "Put a sweater over top of your denim shirt for a casual yet preppy look. Wear a colored top underneath an unbuttoned shirt for a pop of color. Choose a blazer to dress up your denim shirt. Pair a denim shirt with a maxi-dress for a bohemian vibe. Add a vest to your ensemble for a preppy touch." Article:

This works well with baggy sweaters as well as more fitted ones. For the best look, wear a denim shirt with longer sleeves so you can roll the bottoms up over the cuffs of the sweater. Make sure to pull the collar out so it’s visible over the sweater. Cardigans work well for this look, too. If you’re worried about looking or feeling bulky because of the multiple layers, try tucking the denim shirt into your pants. This will help hold the shirt down so it doesn’t bunch up under the sweater. This is a great way to dress down an outfit or show off a cool shirt. Stripes look great with denim, but don’t be afraid to wear a graphic tee or something bright and patterned. Stick with neutral tones if you want to maintain a classic look. This essentially turns your denim shirt into a cardigan or jacket. If the weather is cool, you could even wear a long sleeved shirt under the denim one and roll the bottom cuff up over the denim cuff. This creates a nice visual effect between the 2 shirts. This is a really popular style for both men and women to wear to the office. You can button the blazer to make it look a little more fitted, or leave it unbuttoned to show off your layers even more. Make sure to pair your blazer with bottoms that complement the entire outfit. For example, you could wear a navy blue blazer, a light-denim shirt, and a pair of khakis for a neutral yet classy style. Try just tying together the bottom of the shirt rather than buttoning it up, that way the top of the dress will still be visible. If you get warm, you can take off the top and tie it around your waist. This is a great way to transition your maxi-dresses from summer to fall. You have an extra layer in case you get cold, and it lets you enjoy those dresses for a few extra weeks before it gets too cold to wear them. You could even wear a maxi-shirt and a tank top and put the denim shirt on over the tank top for a very similar effect. If the temperature is cool, don a puffy vest overtop of your denim shirt the next time you head out. Leave your denim shirt buttoned, but leave the vest unfastened. You could even add a scarf to the outfit for additional warmth. Pair the vest and denim shirt with black jeans or leggings to really pull the look together.

Keep your mixing time to no less than 1 minute and no more than 2. When plaster isn't properly mixed, it has a tendency to separate. On the other hand, overmixing can cause bubbles to form, which may decrease the strength of the plaster or ruin the smoothness of the finished wall. Perfectly-mixed plaster will be opaque, creamy, and free of lumps, bubbles, or grit. A splash of vibrant color can make walls pop. Stir dry powdered pigment into a container of water to create a slurry, then add the slurry to the plaster bucket just prior to mixing. This will make for effortless blending and help you sidestep common issues like spotting and clumping. When incorporating pigment, you can add up to 10% of the total weight of the plaster you used, or until you reach the desired depth of color. Colored plasters allow certain paint shades to show up better. For instance, royal blue paint will stand out boldly over a blue-tinted plaster base without the need for as many coats of paint as you would need for plain white plaster. They can also be quite attractive on their own, providing a more earthy, natural look to a room. right away. Once it's been mixed, pour the plaster onto a damp spot board to prepare it to be scooped onto a hawk. Depending on the working time of the plaster, you'll have somewhere between 5-45 minutes to get it onto the wall before it begins to harden, so don't delay. For best results, always mix your plaster just before you smooth it on. Plaster spreads and sticks best when it's fresh. Summary:

Avoid under- or over-mixing. Add pigment for bolder colors. Apply the plaster
