INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Before you pay for an online course, you should be realistic about your ability to manage your time and to follow a structured schedule for the course. Ensure that you have enough time to dedicate to studying, finishing your assignments, and passing the class. This course will be taught at a college level. If you feel uncertain about your abilities to complete college-level coursework, this might not be the best option for you. If you're not confident in your computer skills, you should consider strengthening them before taking an online course. It might be a good idea to narrow down the list of most needed skills to just a few items to make sure you can develop those skills in time before the course begins. Many courses will list a summary of what the course will cover, a syllabus of the work that will be required, or have pre-requisites that you must complete prior to the course. If you are taking this online course for a degree program, make sure that you have completed any pre-requisites for the course. If you are attending another college, but taking this online course through a different university, check with your university to make sure that this credit will be accepted towards your degree. Purchase or borrow any required textbooks or course materials prior to the start date of your class. For most online college courses, you will need to ensure that you have enough hard drive memory and that you are using the most up to date operating systems for your laptop or desktop computer. If you do not meet these requirements, the online course module may not work correctly and you will be unable to complete the course. Though you may be able to use a public computer, like one at the library, it's better to have a personal computer you can rely on to complete an online course. Technical courses may have specific requirements for the amount of RAM, hard drive space available, and the operating system that you use. You will need consistent and reliable access to the Internet for your course. Hone and practice your computer skills if you are uncertain whether they are strong enough for the course. You can even enroll in a brief computer literacy class before starting the course. Beginning the course with a good relationship with your professor can be a very helpful way to establish a good rapport with them for the rest of the course. Before the course begins, reach out to your professor. This can be a simple email introducing yourself to the instructor and letting them know that you're excited to begin the course with them. If you ever have the opportunity to speak with your professor in person, take advantage of it. If you work part time or full time, you should let your employer know that you are taking college classes online so they are aware of your time restrictions. If you work full time, see if your employer offers tuition reimbursement or tuition reimbursement. If you have an HR department, they will be the best resource for this inquiry. If you work part time or have a flexible work schedule, ensure that your work schedule does not conflict with your study schedule or any scheduled class times. If you have children at home, arrange childcare before the course begins. It can be very difficult to focus on online coursework if you are caring for children at the same time. Arrange for consistent childcare during the times you know will be doing coursework and studying.

SUMMARY: Be realistic about your expectations. Carefully read the class requirements and syllabus. Confirm you meet the technical requirements. Connect with your professor. Notify your employer that you are taking classes.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Before you attempt to remove a foreign object from your eyes, it is important to know what to avoid. Keep the following information in mind as you attempt to remove an object from your eye: Never remove any piece of metal, large or small, that has lodged itself in the eye. Never put any pressure on the eye itself in an effort to dislodge the object. Never use tweezers, toothpicks, or other hard items to remove an object from your eye. Using a sterile eye wash solution to flush out your eyes is the best way to remove a foreign object or chemical irritant from your eyes. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) recommends flushing your eyes with water for at least fifteen minutes. Use a sterile eye wash solution to rinse eyes using a continuous stream of fluid. Keep in mind that eye wash solution does not neutralize many chemicals. It just dilutes them and washes them away. For this reason, you will need a large quantity of eye wash solution. If you are at home and you have a small foreign object in your eye such as an eyelash or piece of dirt, then you can try to flush it with gentle running water in the shower. Do not aim the water right at your eye. Instead, allow the water to hit your forehead and run down your face over your eyes. Hold the affected eye open with your fingers to allow water to run over it. Allow the water to run over your eye for a couple of minutes to see if it removes the foreign object from your eye. The amount of time that you will need to rinse your eyes will vary based on the type of irritant or chemical that is in your eye. If you have a piece of something stuck in your eye, then you will need to wash until you feel it come out. If you have a chemical irritant in your eye as well, then you will need to rinse for a certain amount of time depending on the chemical. For mildly irritating chemicals, rinse for five minutes. For moderate-to-severe irritants, rinse for at least 20 minutes. For non-penetrating corrosives such as acids, rinse for 20 minutes. For penetrating corrosives such as alkalis, rinse for at least 60 minutes. If the foreign object does not come out of your eye after a few minutes of rinsing or if you have gotten a severe irritant in your eye as well, then tell another person right away. Have someone call poison control and seek medical attention immediately.
Summary: Know what to avoid. Use an eye wash solution to flush out the object. Get into the shower and allow the water to run down over your open eyes. Observe rinsing times for different chemicals. Seek immediate medical attention if you need to rinse for more than a few minutes.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Begin with a small circle with a cross-section for the ninja's head. Draw an oval at the end of the line made in step 2. Draw 2 lines connecting the ovals a little before the side's end. Draw 2 vertically-elongated ovals from the oval at the bottom end for the ninja's legs. The sketch will guide you to produce a smooth and neat outline. Trace the smaller details of the ninja to produce drawing effects for the clothes. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/1\/1c\/Draw-a-Ninja-Step-14Bullet1.jpg\/v4-460px-Draw-a-Ninja-Step-14Bullet1.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/1\/1c\/Draw-a-Ninja-Step-14Bullet1.jpg\/aid3057224-v4-728px-Draw-a-Ninja-Step-14Bullet1.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>

SUMMARY:
Using pencil, roughly sketch the guidelines for drawing a ninja. Draw an oval a little under the circle and draw a line from the circle through the oval and further; this will be for the backbone of a ninja's body (for sketch purposes) Draw two small circles at the upper left and upper right side of the oval. Draw two small vertically-elongated ovals from the 2 small circles at the upper oval for the ninja's arms. Carefully trace with a pen the outline of your sketch. Erase the sketch. Color the drawing as you like!
