Write an article based on this "Talk about it with the person. Ask if you can start kissing. Kiss away."
article: If you're already together as a couple, kissing may seem like the next natural step. However, everyone moves at different speeds. While you may be ready for it, your boyfriend or girlfriend may not be ready. Talk to him or her about how she feels about kissing. As an example, you could say, "I like it when we hold hands. How do you feel about kissing me?" Simply asking is the quickest way to move forward, plus it means you have consent. Consent is just a fancy way of saying the person gives you permission to kiss him or her. Basically, you're just asking the person if you can kiss him or her, or if you're trying to be kissed, you're giving the person permission to kiss you. For instance, you can say, "Can we kiss?" or "Would you like to kiss me?" You could also say, "I'd like for you to kiss me if you'd like to." Consent is especially important as you start wanting to get closer to another person. Every person has a right to say what happens to his or her own body. In other words, if you just up and kiss someone, you haven't given him a chance to say how much he or she wants to kiss you, and that "yes" is essential. Maybe he or she isn't quite ready for kissing, so for now, he or she may say "no." Once you both have agreed to kissing, have fun. Just be sure to talk again if you want to move on to something heavier.

Write an article based on this "Protect your goats from predators. Learn to recognize the signs of a sick goat. Keep your goat clean and trimmed."
article: It's important to be aware of the predators in your area so you can take steps towards protecting your goats. Common goat predators include dogs, coyotes, cougars, and birds such as ravens and vultures. Some of these predators will carry your goats (especially the kids) away, while others will injure them so badly that they will need to be put down. The best way to keep your goats safe is to lock them in a secured building (with no open windows or doors) every night. You should also consider getting a livestock guardian dog to fend off predators 24/7. If you need to deter vultures specifically, the USDA recommends hanging a vulture carcass (which doesn't have to be real) from a tree or post. You should also avoid tethering your goats, as this makes them an easy target for any predators. Leaving them loose in an enclosed space with a high fence is much safer. You will inevitably have to deal with a sick goat at one point or another, so it's important to be able to read the signs: Some of the most common and visible symptoms of a sick goat are: not eating or drinking, crusty eyes, diarrhea, hot udders, pressing its face against a wall or fence, coughing, crying or calling more than usual, grinding teeth, separating itself from the group, pale eyelids and grey gums. The sooner you call the vet to treat your goat, the greater the chance of restoring the goat to full health. Your goats will also need yearly vaccinations against tetanus and enterotoxemia (an overeating disease) and you will need to watch out for parasites like lice and ticks. In general, goats don't require too much grooming (except for the long haired varieties), but you will need to give them some attention every now and then in order to keep them clean and comfortable. Brushing and bathing: Goats should be brushed at least once a year (preferably at the start of summer when they're shedding) with a firm-bristled grooming brush. This removes dandruff and loose hair, stimulates blood flow, and gives you a chance to check for any lumps on the skin or other signs of diseases. Bathing your goats is not strictly necessary, but it helps to remove lice and makes clipping easier. Clipping: You will need to clip your goats hair at least once a year, to help them stay cool throughout the summer. You may want to clip the tail and udder regions of female goats more frequently, to help keep them clean during milking and kidding season. You will also need to bathe and clip them more frequently if you plan on entering them in shows. Trimming hooves: You will also need to trim your goats' hooves about once a month, otherwise they will become overgrown and hard to walk on. This is a relatively quick and easy process, which you can do with a packet or roofing knife.

Write an article based on this "Ask questions before you begin. Take your time. Write in the margins. Summarize what you have read. Use online study guides after reading. Tell someone about the reading."
article:
Asking yourself some pre-reading questions can make it easier for you to retain what you read. Before you start reading a text, determine what you need to discover from the text. Some instructors will provide students with a list of questions to help them stay focused as they read. You might ask your instructor about good questions to keep in mind as you read. You can also develop your own questions. For example, you might simply ask, what is the focus of this chapter? Give yourself plenty of time to read and take breaks as needed. It is better to go slowly when you read a text than to rush through it and have to re-read it later on. Make sure that you provide yourself with plenty of time to read and understand what you read. For example, if you have to read 40 pages of a book by Friday, start reading on Monday and just read 10 pages per night. Don't put off reading until Thursday night. Making notes in the margins whenever you encounter something important is more effective than highlighting or underlining the passage. Try reading with a pen in your hands instead of holding a highlighter. You can write key words in the margins, ask questions, or comment on something that just happened. Writing summaries of what you just read can help you to commit the information to memory as well. After you finish reading a chapter of a book or a short story, take a minute to write a brief summary of what you just read. In your summary, don't worry about including every little detail. Instead, try to provide a nice overview of the action. You also might want to include a paragraph where you discuss your ideas about the reading. For example, if something surprising happened in the chapter, you might talk about how you reacted to it and why. Summaries are also a good place to record information about symbols, themes, and characters. For example, you might note that the author uses nature symbolism to describe certain characters. There are many online guides that you can utilise in order to better comprehend the literature that you're assigned to read. Websites like SparkNotes and CliffsNotes provide summaries, character analyses, interpretations, helpful hints, essay tips and more for many different books. Read these after completing your reading assignment to feel more confident in understanding the material. Don't rely solely on reading SparkNotes or CliffsNotes. Reading only these guides will usually not give you enough information to be successful. Teaching someone else about the text that you have been reading is a great way to commit the information to memory as well. Try telling a classmate or friend about the chapter you just read. When you tell someone about the reading, try to summarize the main ideas and explain anything that might be difficult to understand if you have not read the book. Make sure that you explain the reading in your own words. Don't just repeat parts of what you read word-for-word.
