Article: Though "date night" may sound forced, you and your special someone should aim to have a date night at least once a week, if not more often. You don't have to call it "date night" if that sounds too cheesy, but you should make a goal to spend some quality time together without anyone else around at least one night a week. You can do this same thing during date night, such as cooking dinner together and then going to the movies, or spice it up and do something new every time. If you're staying in, maintain a romantic atmosphere by lighting some candles and playing some soft music. Whatever you do, make sure you have time to really talk during your special time together. You won't be able to talk much if you're just going to a loud concert together. Learn to say no to others during "date night." Your girlfriends may be begging you to come out to the bars, but if you've scheduled a date night, tell them you can't make it and make plans for next week. Things will break down if "date night" is the thing you're always willing to give up. You should always look nice, tell each other how much you love each other, and compliment each other throughout the night. You don't have to plug this into your calendar, and hopefully you won't have to, but you should make a conscious effort to make love at least one a week, no matter how tired you feel after work, or how much you have going on that week. Making love is a way to maintain your intimacy and to grow closer to your partner. You should also spend some time just cuddling and kissing each other, so you don't feel like you're just checking "sex" off of your to-do list. Though your schedules may get crazy, you need to make a concerted effort to talk to each other every day, no matter how much work you have to do. You can set aside time to talk during dinner, or to talk over the phone if your loved one is away. Make a habit of knowing what your loved one's day was like. Though you don't have to bore each other with every little detail of your lives, you should become comfortable with each other's routines. If you're spending a week apart, set aside at least fifteen minutes a day to catch up and to remind your loved one how much you love and miss him. When you do talk, there should be no distractions. You're not really talking if you're also watching the game or checking your phones.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Make time for romance. Make love at least once a week. Make time to talk.
Article: In this method, you insert a long, flat knife or similar object directly into the CD player. Knives made from metal conduct electricity, so, if you have an object made from wood or plastic that will work (like, for instance, a popsicle stick), use it. If not, be sure to disconnect all power supplies from the CD player and make sure any electrical charge has been removed. Turn the car and the CD player off and disconnect the negative terminal of your car's battery. Note: As with other methods described in this article, this method carries the risk of damage to the stuck CD or the CD player itself. If you don't want to put your property at risk, take your car to a trained automotive professional. Use a strong tape like Gorilla tape for best results. Putty knives are typically tapered so that if you wrap the tape tight enough, it will not slide off the end. If you're using another object, like a popsicle stick, which doesn't taper, you may need to stick the tape to the object, wrap it around several times, then put a twist in the tape and wrap it around several more times to make sure the tape is adequately secured to the object. Because your knife (or stick, etc.) is now covered with sticky tape, it can be difficult to insert it into the CD player. To make this process easier, use paper to make one side of your knife smooth. Stick a small piece of printer or construction paper onto your knife. Trim the paper with scissors so that it matches the size and shape of the knife. Delicately wiggle your knife to feel for the top of the CD. Press down gently to get the tape to stick to the CD. When you feel that your knife is stuck to the CD, gently try to lift and remove the CD.

Reduce electrocution risk. Wrap tape (sticky side out) around the end of a putty knife (or similar object). Stick a thin piece of paper on one side of the knife. Insert the knife into CD player, sticky side down.
Article: If you get a paper or digital bank statement each month, it may contain the BIC code somewhere in the fine print. Look for "BIC" or "SWIFT" which, remember, are interchangeable followed by a string of 8 or 11 characters. BIC and SWIFT codes are assigned by 2 different organizations that have agreed to a single standard, meaning that BIC codes and SWIFT codes are essentially one and the same. With enough clicking around, you should be able to track down the BIC code for your bank. For instance, if you have an account with PNC Bank, N.A. (U.S.A.): Log into your account with your username and password. Click on one of your accounts (e.g., "Interest Checking"). Click on "Show Account and Routing Numbers," and re-enter your password. Click on "For Wire Transfers" and get the code PNCCUS33. The tellers at any bank branch will probably be able to tell you their BIC or SWIFT code from memory. Or, at the very least, they should be able to look it up quickly. It will probably take longer to connect to a customer service representative than it will take for them to give you their BIC code. If you track down contact information for any bank in the world that handles international transactions, you can ask for their BIC code.

Look over your bank statement. Log into your online banking account. Visit a bank branch and ask for their BIC code. Call a bank's customer service line and ask for their code.
