Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Understand the physical and emotional changes you're going through. Eat right. Learn to cope with stress and manage your emotions. Get plenty of sleep. Exercise and stay in shape.

Answer: Your body and mind are transforming themselves. You're full of hormones that make your emotions intense and difficult to regulate. You're constantly in social situations at school and at home that exacerbate those emotions. Taking control of your life also means recognizing what's out of your control: this is an awkward, rocky time in your life. It's important to accept that. The neurological and hormonal changes and developments in your body can make it difficult to control and cope with your emotions. You may feel overwhelmed, confused, and out of control. Know that this is normal, and there are things you can do to help you stay healthy and cope. Understand that adolescence is something everyone goes through, so don't be too critical of yourself. Don't be too concerned about judgment from your peers or from adults. At some point, you will look silly, say something awkward, trip and fall, and so on: it's part of the deal. Growing and developing take lots of energy, and getting through a packed schedule demands even more. It's essential to eat a well-balanced diet to fuel your growth and productivity. Never skip any meals, and always make sure to eat breakfast to get your day going on a full tank. Half of what you eat should be fruits and veggies. Balance the rest of your diet out with whole grains, like whole grain bread, brown rice, or oatmeal, and lean proteins, like turkey, chicken, seafood, and eggs. Talk to your doctor to learn more about your specific dietary needs. There's no "right" number of calories to eat, and no universal portion size for everyone. If you're a very active boy, you'll need to eat more than a less active girl. Get to know your body's needs and take this time while you're young to establish long-lasting healthy habits. Teens should not go on weight-loss diets or try to lose weight by eating less unless recommended by your doctor. Your teenage years are a tumultuous time, and there will be times when you feel stressed and overwhelmed. Learning healthy, productive ways to deal with your emotions will not only help you take control of your life as a teenager, it will also set you up for success as an adult. When you find yourself getting upset, try asking yourself the following questions: "What am I reacting to?"; "What about this is making me so upset?"; "Is this a fact or just an opinion?"; "Am I jumping to conclusions?"; "Am I putting more importance on this than it actually deserves?"; "Will this be important in six months?" Communicate assertively. Many people wrongly think "assertive" means "aggressive." Being assertive means you clearly and respectfully express your wants and needs and that you listen and honor the opinions of others as well. Don't expect anyone to know what you want or need if you need some space, simply ask for it. Say something like, "I'm feeling really stressed and overwhelmed right now. I need to just go to my room and be alone for a little while." Learn to breathe deeply. Feeling overwhelmed may trigger your sympathetic nervous system, known as your fight or flight response. You can counteract this with diaphragmatic breathing, in which you breathe deeply into your belly. Place your hand on your stomach and feel your belly rise as you inhale for a count of five. Hold for a moment, then exhale for another five seconds. Do this until you begin to feel calm. Journaling is a great way to work through your emotions and vent. Try free-writing three pages in a notebook every day. Don't worry about spelling, grammar, making sense, or even being fair. Just let loose with whatever is going through your mind at that moment (just be sure to keep this journal private). Find ways to reduce your stress. Running, meditation, doing something creative, going for a bike ride, playing video games, shopping whatever positive activity makes you feel better and less stressed, give yourself permission to enjoy it. Most teens do not get the recommended amount of sleep, which is at least nine to 10 hours a night. Remember, those changes your body is going through take a lot of energy, and you need to rest to recover. It's okay for teens to sleep late on the weekends, so remind your parents that your oversleeping is not a sign of laziness, but something that's necessary for your body. Try to go to bed and wake up at regular times. Develop a sleeping routine. Don't stare at your phone or computer right before going to bed, and try to listen to relaxing music or read a book to create a good sleep environment. Being active every day can help you gain control over your changing body, keep a positive mindset, and helps you to simply have fun. It's recommended that teens be active for at least 60 combined minutes a day, whether through physical education or gym class, participating in a sport, or riding a bike. Get active outside to help cut down on your "screen time," or the time you spend on your phone, computer, or watching television. Try to make exercise a social activity, or a way of having fun with friends.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check the car's service history report. Bring someone who knows cars to inspect the car. Negotiate the price of the car. Document everything if you're buying from a private seller.

Answer: That will give you some information regarding the performance, repairs, and problems of the car. Ideally, the current owner would have kept a record of the times when the car needed servicing and should be willing to show you this information. There are instances where used cars are sold because of past accidents or negative experiences. Some cars do not have maintenance records because they maintained them at home, but you can ask the seller if they have any receipts from replacement parts so you can verify any repairs they made. Request the vehicle's history from the salesperson or the person trying to sell you the car. It is a good idea to bring along a trusted friend with a good background of automotive know-how to check things that you are not sure of. If you do not have a trusted friend in the auto industry, you can pay a mechanic to complete an inspection on it. Make sure this mechanic has good reviews so you will not get scammed into thinking the car is a lemon. Depending on the quality of the vehicle, feel free to offer a price. Be sure that it is a reasonable offer. Remember, no matter how good that car is today, it is going to require maintenance in the future and will depreciate in value over time. For example, if the dealer is asking $15,000, do not offer $10,000, which is an unreasonable counter-offer. If the car is over $10,000, try to negotiate at least $1,500 off of the car. Use industry standard pricing models like Kelley Blue Book to base your price negotiations on. Bring a pen, paper and cell phone with you. As you make your inspection of the car, be sure to record all items which are damaged or will require replacement. Some sellers may think it's rude and may decide not to sell to you. But you need to be as informed as possible when you're making your decision.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use this method if you have removed your garbage disposal and do not wish to install a new one. Remove the nut securing the drain flange to remove the sink drain. Clean the putty around the drain hole with a putty knife. Secure the flat washer to the underside of the drain. Find the PVC drain tailpiece. Attach the elbow pipe to the tailpiece. Connect the connector pipe to the elbow and the adjacent sink.

Answer:
This will install a new sink drain and connect the drain to the waste pipes, allowing wastewater to drain directly from the sink into the drainpipes. Use a pipe wrench to loosen and remove the nut securing the drain flange. Then you can push the sink drain up through the sink for removal. Scrape the putty off using the putty knife. If the putty is very hard and difficult to remove then you should use a razor to remove the excess. After cleaning off the chunks of putty use a scrubbing pad and water to scrub the area clean. If the putty is too difficult to remove, use rubbing alcohol or spirits to remove the putty. The drain will come with a washer when it is purchased. Move to the underside of the drain and place the washer over the threads and secure with the large nut that comes with your drain. Tighten the nut as securely as possible using tongue-and-groove pliers. It may help to have someone hold the drain from the top so it does not move around. Remove excess putty after securing the drain. This will connect the drain to the elbow pipe. It should be long enough that it is at the same level of the pipe it needs to be connected to. Hand-tighten the tailpiece to the sink drain to secure the piece. Attach the pieces together to create the bend in the pipe directing towards the adjacent sink. Use the connector pipe to connect the elbow piece to the T-fitting on the adjacent sink. The connector piece might need to be cut down to the correct length depending on your sink. Use the nuts and washers provided with your pipes to secure the pieces together using the tongue-and-groove pliers.
