Summarize the following:
This infection can be brought on by athlete's foot (tinea pedis) or through other forms of contamination such as exposure in public places. The fungus also thrives in warm, moist environments and may enter your body through cuts or openings between the nail and skin. Don't share shoes, socks, or towels with anyone. Avoid walking barefoot in locker rooms, public swimming pools, communal showers, or gyms. Discard old shoes that may still be infected with the fungus. Wash your hands with soap after touching the infected toenail(s) to keep it from spreading to uninfected nails. Keep your infected foot dry by wearing open-toed shoes or wearing dry, clean socks. This infection can begin mildly, but spread into a more uncomfortable condition. The fungus may cause your nail to change color, disintegrate at the edge, or become abnormally thick. If it becomes bothersome, the condition should be treated. Try a prescription medicated antifungal cream that's rubbed into the nail after it's soaked in warm water. Ask your doctor for prescription oral medication that should be taken from six to 12 weeks, in combination with topical antifungal treatments. It may be necessary for your doctor to monitor your liver function while you are on these medications A few non-conventional treatments have been effective in treating nail fungus in some people. Use tea tree oil, applied in a light coating to the affected nail(s) two to three times a dayuse products that are 100% tea tree oil. Apply snakeroot extract, a treatment that has often proven as effective as conventional antifungal cremes. Soak your infected nail(s) in white vinegar, which has natural antibacterial properties. After filing the nail (exposing a fresh surface), apply full-strength vinegar with a cloth, cotton ball, or cotton swab 12 times daily for several weeks. This may be necessary if the infected nail becomes extremely painful. The procedure involves removing the infected nail completely. The removal is often done in combination with treatment using antifungal medication in the nailbed. Rest assured that a new nail will grow back, but it may take up to one year.

summary: Avoid further contamination. Use conventional medications. Try homeopathic treatments. Consult a doctor about surgery in extreme cases.

No signal should be running through anything while you hook up speakers. Examine the wire and take note of any differences between coloring on either half. Is one half of the insulation colored red, and the other black? Is the insulation clear with subtle differences in the colors of the wire beneath? This information will be useful later. Then use wire cutters or scissors to trim away the insulation around the first inch of each wire. This should leave you with a length of exposed wire at the end of each section. Keep the ends of all the wires separated throughout this process. Bend the exposed sections away from each other in a Y shape before connecting them to anything. Make sure the metal at the end of each exposed section is twisted to a point for easy insertion. Some speakers come with wire sticking out of a hole in the back of the cabinet. Others have a row of little sockets for you to connect wires to. It should match a row of sockets on the back of your amplifier which looks something like this: It is important to keep things consistent throughout this step on a couple of different levels. Look for "L" and "R" to indicate the left and right speakers. Be certain you are wiring the speaker on the right side of your rig to the socket labeled "R" on the back of your amplifier. Same goes for left and "L". Take advantage of the color coding on the sockets when connecting wires. This will help you to make sure the polarity (+ vs - charge) is consistent throughout your rig. It does not matter which end of the wire you use for black or red, only that you remain consistent. This is usually done using the colored switches somewhere along the outside of each socket. Confirm that each wire is leading from red to red and black to black. You should do this before giving power to the system. It never hurts to be extra sure since wiring inconsistencies can ruin your equipment. A fully connected rig looks like this: This will prevent people from tripping over them and accidentally ripping the wires out of their sockets.

summary: Make sure all your components are completely unplugged. Prepare your wires for connection. Split the wire down the center for a couple of inches. Determine how the wires are to be connected to the speakers. Insert the wires into the corresponding sockets. Fasten the connected wires into place. Make sure you hide the wires or tape them to the floor.

Summarize the following:
Challenge yourself to talk to at least a couple new people every day. It can be tough to approach new people at school or work, especially if you're naturally shy. Try to relax, remind yourself that everyone gets nervous, and take a step out of your comfort zone. For example, instead of eating lunch alone, look for someone you've never met and say, "Hey there! Is this seat taken?" Later on, they'll probably notice you when you pass them in the hallway and say hello. If you're nervous, remember that everyone has insecurities and gets shy, even if they seem totally confident on the outside. When you meet someone or have a conversation, smile naturally and look them in the eye. Try not to fake a smile and, if you have to, think of something that cracks you up without fail. When making eye contact, don't stare without blinking, but look at the person directly to show you're paying attention to them. Whether you're having lunch with someone new or at a work meeting, try to think of thoughtful questions that show you're engaged in the moment. When the person responds, try to pay attention to them instead of just thinking of something interesting to say. For example, if you're at a new school, ask the person sitting next to you, "What do you do for fun? Are you in any clubs or do you play a sport?" Instead of asking another unrelated question after they respond, say something like, "Oh cool! I've never played hockey, but it's fun to watch. Do lots of people go to games and show school spirit?" Once they respond, try mentioning an activity that you are interested in to build the conversation. From your music taste to snowboarding, an interest or hobby can make you more noticeable. However, you don't want to just adopt the interests of your crush or a popular person to get them to notice you. Figure out what you enjoy and do it. If you love a music genre, listen to as many tracks and artists as you can and learn about its evolution. Developing an interest or hobby can help you spark conversations and get noticed by like-minded people. If you already have an interesting hobby, you can use it to start conversations as well. Joining a club or sports team is another great way to meet new people and make deeper connections. Since everyone involved already has that activity in common, it can be a little easier to form relationships with your teammates. Running for student government is another great way to get recognized by your peers. If your workplace has a company team, join it or support it. For example, if there's a company softball team but you're not the best athlete, go to the game, cheer for your team, and bring a cooler with refreshments. Whether it's a school dance or a company cocktail hour, do your best to attend social events. You have to put yourself out there if you want people to notice you. If you stay home, you could be passing up a good time or networking opportunity. If you're an introvert, try to use it to your advantage at social events. Listen and observe while all the extroverts talk. Then, when the opportunity presents itself, you could say to someone, "I heard you mention Roald Dahl earlier. He's my favorite author!" Whether the person is your crush or an executive at work, they'll notice that you paid attention to them and sparked a meaningful conversation.
summary: Start a conversation with someone new every day. Smile and make eye contact. Ask thoughtful questions, but don't interrogate. Develop your own interests and hobbies. Get involved in clubs and activities. Don't pass on invitations to social gatherings.
