Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Caliber selection in pistols is a hot source of debate amongst tactics-minded handgun users. The most crucial factor in determining what caliber you will choose is how accurate and comfortable you are with any particular caliber. Don't completely disregard a .22 if your objective is home defense. When making your decision, also keep in mind the cost of ammunition!

Answer: While the general stopping power of a pistol is measurably low compared to almost any long gun, you want to make an informed choice to give you the best advantage. Smaller calibers, such as .380, 9mm, etc, generally result in a higher bullet velocity, reduced recoil which allows for fast follow-up shots, higher capacity magazines (or smaller framed guns), and higher velocity bullets. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/f\/ff\/Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet1.jpg\/v4-460px-Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/f\/ff\/Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet1.jpg\/aid139610-v4-728px-Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet1.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>

<\/p><\/div>"} Large calibers, such as the venerable .45 feature slower bullets that have increased overall diameter, allowing for a wider initial wound channel (which gives you a slightly increased chance of hitting something vital). The heavier bullets and generally high muzzle energies increase recoil, resulting in slower follow-up shots and the larger diameter of the cartridges means lower capacity magazines. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/f\/f9\/Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet2.jpg\/v4-460px-Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/f\/f9\/Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet2.jpg\/aid139610-v4-728px-Choose-a-Firearm-for-Personal-or-Home-Defense-Step-4Bullet2.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>

<\/p><\/div>"} Most U.S. self-defense experts consider .380 ACP (9 x 17 mm Browning Short) or 9mm as the minimum for adequate defense, while European Police believe that .32 ACP (7.65 x 17 mm Browning) as adequate. Making an informed decision about what caliber you will use requires experience. Shoot many different calibers and choose the biggest caliber that you can comfortably shoot and make fast, accurate followup shots with. A semi-automatic .22 pistol or Ruger 10/22 carbine with a high-capacity magazine is easy to control when shooting fast and can be very effective at close range (most home-defense shots occur at less than 7 yards), and .22 ammunition is very cheap. Furthermore, a .22 won't penetrate as many walls, thus reducing property damage and risk to your neighbors if you miss. You'll want to be able to easily afford enough ammunition to keep up a regular practice routine.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Stay away from open fields or hilltops. Avoid swimming or watersports on rainy days. Don't stand near trees or tall isolated objects. Avoid metal objects, like fences or exposed pipes.

Answer: Lightning often strikes the tallest object in the area, so avoid open fields or any hilltops. Look for a low-lying area like a valley or ravine, preferably obscured from the rain. Take refuge here until the storm passes. Crouch down with your heels touching and your head between your knees: this will make you a smaller target. Do not lie down flat, and minimize your contact with the ground. Lightning can be fatal up to one hundred feet away from the initial strike. Check weather forecasts early in the day, and avoid going to a swimming pool, river, lake, or beach on rainy days. If you find yourself in open water during a thunderstorm, return to land immediately. If you are in a boat and cannot return to safety, drop anchor and crouch as low as possible. Do not return to the body of water until thirty minutes after the last lightning strike. Any earlier, and the storm may not be over. Indoor swimming is equally unsafe. Avoid all large bodies of water during a storm. Taller objects are more likely to be struck by lightning. Wherever you are, don't become the highest object anywhere. Avoid standing under trees in a lightning storm, and stay away from tall objects like light posts. If you're in a forest, stay near a lower stand of trees. Umbrellas can increase your risk of getting hit if it is the tallest object in the area. Metal conducts electricity, and you are much more likely to get hit. If you are carrying large metal objects, let them go. Small metal objects, like piercings or electronic devices, do not carry a large risk and are safe to hold. If you are riding a bicycle, drop the bike and crouch to the ground. Most bikes are made of metal and are excellent lightning conductors. Rubber shoes or other rubber objects will not actually protect you from metal's conducting properties.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Don't try too hard to make her jealous. Don't try to be someone else just to win her over. Don't play too many games. Don't be afraid to tell her how you feel about her.

Answer:
Though there are some tricks you can pull to make the girl you like be more inclined to miss you, you shouldn't try to make her so jealous that she feels like she shouldn't bother with you because you're a player or because she doesn't want to fight for your affection. While you don't have to tell her where you've been all the time, don't talk about other girls too much or openly flirt with every girl who comes your way unless you want the girl to get annoyed with you. Though some light flirting with other girls can make the girl you like see that you're a catch, you don't want to push it so far that she feels like you don't care about her. If she thinks that you're likely to mess around with other girls when you're away, then she won't miss you very much. If you see her out, you should gather your confidence and give it a minute or two before you go up to her. If you act like you don't see her or she's not cool enough for you, then she won't be jealous of the people you're talking to; she'll just think you're a jerk. As corny as it sounds, at the end of the day, it's important that you be yourself if you really want to win the girl over. You shouldn't try to put on an act or be a guy who you think she'd prefer to you; instead, you should work on letting her see your best attributes and take some time to open up about your more quirky interests. Though you don't need to act the exact same way around her as you would around your buddies, you shouldn't put on an act, either, or she'll be able to see through it eventually. If you really like the girl and want her to miss you, then you should make sure the person she's missing is really you, not some polished version of who you are. Though it can take a while for you to open up and show her who you really are, you should try to be as genuine as possible when you're getting to know each other. Sure, limiting your phone time or the time you spend together and playing a little hard to get can make the girl more interested in you and can make her more likely to miss you. But if you take it too far, then you'll just be confusing the girland may even be confusing yourself in the process. If she feels like your entire relationship is based around mind games and she doesn't really know who you are, then her patience will wear thin pretty fast. If you're kind and affectionate one minute and then cold and distant the next, then she'll quickly get frustrated. Though you don't have to give it all away, if she feels like she has no idea what's going on in your head, she'll start to give up on you. While it's important to leave her wanting more and missing you, you don't want to take playing hard to get so far that she has no idea that you actually do care for her. Even if you're a bit shy, you should tell her that you do like her and that you do want to spend more time with her. Don't let her do all the work, or she may get tired of you because she'll think that you don't really like her. You have to be willing to meet her at least halfway. If you force her to chase you too much, she may go for a guy who is more open with his feelings instead.
