INPUT ARTICLE: Article: and press the button on top of the productivity clock so that it starts counting time on the idle clock. This is because you first arrive at work and do things like say hello to people and organise your desk from when the cleaners came through and messed everything up. This isn't productive. You will know when this is. Note this in a log. You can even work out the percentage of time wasted.

SUMMARY: Get to work quickly Press the button on top of the idle clock so it starts the counter on the productivity clock. Keep it that way until you think you've stopped being productive. At the end of the day you will have a precise measurement of both productive and idle time at work. You should remember to reset the clock for the next day upon deciding to begin the journey from Work to your Home.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Dogs squint, making their eyes appear smaller, when they are in pain, stressed, or depressed. Depressed dogs may also be reluctant to make eye contact with anybody, even you. Of course, some dogs have "sad" eyes at the best of times, due to naturally droopy eyelids rather than depression, so exercise a little common sense when interpreting sad eyes as a sign of depression. Depressed dogs tend to display a lack of responsive ear movements to noises going on around them. For example, your dog may fail to prick up their ears at the sound of things that normally interest them, such as you calling their name, or their collar and lead being fetched prior to a walk. Licking or chewing their paws is a comfort mechanism for dogs, and can be a sign of depression. Depressed dogs tend to keep their heads lowered when standing or sitting. When lying down your dog prefers to rest their chin on the ground, and rarely raises their head in response to activity going on around them. When a dog is depressed, the tail is held down or between the legs and doesn't wag as readily. When you encourage your dog to wag his tail, the motion is subdued and half-hearted. Depressed dogs tend to stand in a passive way, with their heads down and tails lowered, barely reacting to encouragement. Your dog may give the impression of feeling sluggish, and will lack interest in what's going on around them. When dogs are stressed, they tend to shed much more heavily. If you pet your dog and your hand comes away covered in hair, or if you are suddenly having to vacuum much more often, your dog may be depressed.
Summary: Pay attention to your dog's eyes. Observe your dog for droopy or pulled back ears. Watch for paw licking. See if your dog hangs their head. Monitor how your dog carries his tail. Be aware of your dog's overall body position. Watch for extra shedding.

Choose a player to be the Shark. This player is now "it" and stands in the center of the pool (the "ocean"). When playing with a lot of people in a large area, you can play with more than one Shark. 10 Minnows to 1 Shark is a good ratio. If many people want to be the Shark you can decide by flipping a coin, or playing rock, paper, scissors. Everyone who isn't a Shark is a Minnow. Minnows form a line at one end of the pool deck, facing the Shark. There should be at least twice as many Minnows as Sharks. To start, the Shark yells, "fishy, fishy, cross my ocean", or some variation of that. When the Minnows hear this call, they jump into the pool and start to make their way to the opposite end. The Shark must remain in place above water until the next call. Experienced swimmers can challenge themselves by requiring players to dive, cannonball, or can-opener into the pool.

One-sentence summary -- Pick a Shark. Have many Minnows. Start the game.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Put forth effort into the relationship and work hard to make it work. Communicate openly with your partner about your goals for the relationship and where you see it going. If you're only interested in a short-term fling, be honest. If you've got an eye toward serious long-term love, be honest. There's nothing wrong with either kind of love, but you need to make sure that your partner is equally committed to the same version of love that you are. Commit to the person and to the relationship. Put in work to make your partner feel special, and work toward making the relationship work. The word "intimacy" is often associated with sex, but being emotionally intimate is a huge part of a loving relationship. Emotional intimacy involves allowing yourself to feel and express vulnerability around your partner. Avoiding vulnerability can look like withdrawal, attack, or accusations. On the contrary, intimacy can look like sharing fears, discomfort, and disappointment with your partner. Feelings or situations that previously felt unsafe feel safer in an intimate relationship because of the vulnerability and trust that has been developed. When you begin to feel vulnerable (like experiencing fear, sadness, shame, or hurt), take a moment and pause. Acknowledge whatever feelings come up and allow yourself to feel them; don't avoid them. Take compassion on the feeling and be gentle with it. Share your vulnerable moments and let your partner support you. If you're concerned that the initial attraction and strong feelings of love are wearing off, realize that love can occur in waves. Sometimes you feel overwhelmingly in love with someone, and other times you experience less love to or from that person. Just because you hit a low point doesn't mean that the feelings will last forever. Life happens in cycles, and it's okay that love experiences highs and lows. Lots of things can create peaks and troughs in love, such as having children or growing older. You can work through them. You don't have to be the one in control of the love in your relationship; let your partner express love toward you. Receiving love can feel vulnerable to some people because it requires letting go of control. Be open to receiving gifts, accepting compliments, and warm gestures toward you. You may feel like you now owe something back, but let that go and enjoy the experience of receiving. Love does not have debts but multiplies. Touching does not need to be sexual, but engaging in a long, supportive hug or reaching out for your partner's hand is a way to stay connected. Express your love for your partner by initiating and sustaining physical contact. Affection is one way to express care, appreciation, and other connecting, positive emotions. Affection is a way to make your partner feel loved and for you to feel loving. Sometimes the way we communicate with a partner can be lost in translation, but gratitude is always understood. Affirm your appreciation of your partner by expressing gratitude. Thank your partner for showing that you notice the effort put into the relationship. Show appreciation for the things your partner does, and also for the qualities that your loved one embodies. The whole point of going through life with people you love is so that you can tackle life's challenges together. Work together to find solutions, solve problems, and comfort each other when times get tough. We can't solve everything on our own, we can't know everything there is to know... but a whole bunch of people getting together out of love can solve just about any problem.

SUMMARY:
Commit. Be intimate. Accept that love is dynamic. Be open to receiving love. Touch your partner. Express gratitude to your partner. Be partners in life.
