Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Attend the whole church business meeting for the voting members of the congregation to discuss the idea of the new building program--perhaps scheduled before an evening-service time or after a day-service time. Have a Finance Committee report at a church business meeting to explain the bond program. Have the Building Plan Committee search for an existing church design of the size/kind that your church likes. Have a Building Plan Committee meeting to present the plans to be voted upon, expecting them to be accepted. Continue selling bonds using materials furnished by the bond company. Church Board can proceed with the acquiring of the land, if that will be needed. Have the Church Board select a general church building contractor who will hire the subcontractors and oversee purchasing materials and services for the construction. Have a ground breaking ceremony, and begin the building process. Register the plans with the city building development and inspections department. Finish the building with proper procedures like using plumbers and electricians and getting inspections as required on various stages of the construction.

Answer: The members will be allowed to discuss the idea whether you need to move or build at present location or to find an area in which to buy land. The members will decide when to make a motion when the discussion is finished and vote on the motion to build or to buy land or both. If the idea is agreed upon, then elect or appoint a Finance Committee and a Building Plan Committee to learn about how to proceed and to present their findings later. Ask for and take pledges of amounts that members will promise to donate monthly or in a lump sum to help pay off bonds. Have a presentation by an approved/recommended" church bond company that can handle issuing church bonds. Get volunteers to agree to sell bonds for free (with no commission or pay). Ask about their design and engineering plans, etc., and request to buy or borrow a copy of those building plans for a relatively small donation to their church. The interest rate is considerably better for the buyer than one can get at a bank. The church has to pay these off with interest. The bonds are for various numbers of years so that the investor can tie up their money for about as long as they like.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Ask your friend to have a private conversation. Speak calmly. Tell your friend what you've heard. Listen to your friend's side of the story before making assumptions. Tell your friend how you feel. Ask your friend if you did something to bring about their backstabbing. Don't turn the conversation into an argument. Get a trusted opinion. Determine if the friendship is worth saving.

Answer: Before you make any decisions, it's important that you get to the bottom of the situation. Tell your friend that you'd like to clear some things up, and that you'd appreciate them meeting with you. If you don't see this friend at work or at school, ask them to meet you in a public place such as a cafe. It's best to meet in a public place so that neither of you feel uncomfortable. Always talk to your friend away from other people. You can't have a serious conversation about your relationship issues when other people are around. Yelling or getting overemotional won't typically help your situation. Talking in a calm voice will help you get your point across and will also help your friend remain calm. We often think much more logically when we are calm, so you'll be able to better explain your thoughts and feelings if you don't let your emotions get the best of you. Stay calm by taking slow, deep breaths deep breathing is a great tool to keep you relaxed. If you start to become upset, calm yourself down by internally telling yourself to relax, and/or thinking of imagery that keeps you calm such as a beach or waterfall. Carry a stress ball to squeeze when you get angry. This is a great way to physically get out your anger and tension in an extremely calm way. Avoid mentioning names and simply tell your friend whatever you heard they did or said. Express to them how those actions hurt you. The more straightforward you are, the more straightforward they'll be. Seek the truth before you make your final decision. Most of the time, we find out about backstabbing friends through other people. It's important to get your friend's side of the story before you take another person's word as fact. What you've heard about your friend could be a rumor, or it could be true. Either way, it's important to know the truth. Tell your friend that honesty is important to you and your friendship, and that you'd like to know the truth. Use open-ended questions to encourage discussion and avoid verbally attacking your friend. If they feel like they have to be defensive, they won't be honest with you. Simply ask what happened and listen attentively. Be honest with your feelings and don't beat around the bush. Be straightforward when you're telling your friend why you're upset with them and how their actions have made you feel. Remain as calm as possible. Use this guideline to express your feelings: "It upset me when you _______. Your actions made me feel like _______ because _______." It's important to know whether you have somehow contributed to the issue at hand. Perhaps they feel hurt by you in some way and this is their way of "getting back" at you, or perhaps there has been a misunderstanding. It's important to clarify the possibility that your friend sees things in this light. Avoid interrupting. Let your friend finish talking before you interrupt them or ask additional questions. It's important that your friend feels heard. If your friend won't answer your questions or continues evading the issue, gently push them for answers, but do not attack them. If you turn this into an argument, it will only cause your friend to withdraw from the conversation. Your friend may feel embarrassed that you found out about their actions, so they may be hesitant to be honest with you. To avoid arguing, be sure to listen to your friend instead of waiting for your turn to talk. Listening to one another will give you both a better understanding of what happened. Don't raise your voice. This will just get both of you upset. Don't focus on who is right and who is wrong focus on truth and honesty. If you're trying to prove one another wrong, you won't have a productive conversation. Instead, be honest with one another to figure out how to fix the current situation. Don't be disrespectful or condescending. Even if you're upset, it is not okay to disrespect someone, especially if you're trying to fix a problem. It is important to treat your friend the way you wish to be treated. If things start to get tense, suggest taking a short break from the discussion to allow yourselves to cool down. Talk to someone else you trust, such as a parent, a spouse, another friend or even a counselor. Discuss what happened with someone neutral who can give you an honest opinion on the situation. Sometimes when we are emotional, we can overlook things that an uninvolved person might notice. It's important to talk with someone who will be honest with you, and not someone who will only tell you want you want to hear. It's also important that you listen to them. If your friend is open and honest with you about their actions, there's a strong possibility that your friendship is fixable. If you and your friend can admit to your mistakes and commit to working on a better friendship, put in the effort to fix things. All of our relationships have their ups and downs, so look at this as an opportunity to improve your communication and make your friendship stronger. If your friend is not willing to be honest about their actions, or if this is a recurring issue with this person, it might be best to go your separate ways. Friendship is a two-way street, and you can't be the only person putting in the effort to keep it going. A negative relationship is not worth fighting for, and it will be better for both parties to end your friendship.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Look for dark blotches on leaves. Check for scabs that look like corky blemishes on the potato skins. Watch for slugs.

Answer:
This may be blight, which is a disease that can cause your plant and the potatoes to rot. If left untreated, it will also spread to your other plants. Blight usually happens during the warm humid times of the summer. Remove all diseased foliage. Treat the plant with a fungicide that is sprayed on the leaves. This is called potato scab and won't affect the taste of the potatoes. However, it will affect the storage potential of your potatoes, so you may not be able to store your crop for long. It is generally caused by poor soils and is best treated by amending the soil with organic matter and keeping potatoes regularly watered during the season. Slugs will eat the foliage and the tubers of the potato plant. You should be able to see the slugs on the plant, and their slime trails will be noticeable on the leaves. Bury a tuna can level with the soil and pour beer into the can, this will attract and drown the slugs. Slug pellets or Sluggo can also be used to kill slugs.
