Problem: Article: When grandparents live far away from their grandchildren, it can be difficult to bond. Planning regular visits can make bonding easier, even if it's only possible a few times each year. Take the time to have a conversation with your kids' grandparents about the importance of seeing each other as much as possible. Plan a visit or two in the near future where your kids can have some important face-to-face time with their grandparents. Try saying, "Mom, it is really important to me that you get to spend time with the kids. Would you like to plan on spending several holidays together this year?" There are endless opportunities for your kids to connect with their grandparents using technology. From a face time conversation on your smart phone to playing games together on the Internet, kids can bond with their grandparents using a variety of technologies. Try setting up regular Skype dates with your kids' grandparents, or ask them to set up a Snap Chat account to share silly pictures. Encourage your kids to teach un-tech-savvy grandparents how to use certain technologies. Ask your kids' grandparents to post photos on social media and make sure you share photos of your family as well. Snail mail is a great way to encourage bonding between long-distance grandparents and your children. Have your kids write a letter to Grandma and send her a package filled with stationary, stamps, and pre-addressed letters to your kids. She likely be excited to start writing regularly to her new pen pals. Encourage your kids to send a postcard to Grandma saying, "Hi Grandma! I'm looking for a pen pal. Do you want to send letters to each other this winter?" It may be hard grandparents to get details about your child's accomplishments and milestones by speaking with them, so you may need to update them on these things. Try sharing your child's accomplishments, milestones, and other significant information with the grandparents after your child has finished speaking with them. For example, if your child recently won an award at school, then you might share this information after your child finishes having face time with the grandparents.
Summary: Plan regular visits. Take advantage of technology. Write letters and send postcards. Update the grandparents on your child's accomplishments.

Problem: Article: This is crucial to achieve perfect precision with 4, 6, and 8 or more sub woofers. An amp that is rated at 1000w RMS (Root Mean Square, or the average watt the speaker is intended to receive and play with) set for 1 ohm can power two 2-ohm subs rated at 500w RMS. That same amp can power four 4ohm subs and so forth. But the more subs an amp is placed on, the less power it can give to each individual sub. This is not necessarily a bad thing if you have a 2000w RMS amp and two 600w RMS subs. In fact, you always want the power from the amp to be slightly higher than what the sub(s) requires; a 1000w amp will work well with a 7 or 800W RMS sub. Just make sure that the sub's peak power is rated above 1000w. If rated under, make sure your amp's level is not too high as you can damage the sub. If you have a really powerful amp that's 3000w RMS or higher, then you can really power multiple subs at once without any problem. Just make sure the subs don't combine to read at 0.5 ohm (a dangerous level for an amp, unless it specifies that it can run at that low ohm level) and all your wires are properly connected and wired. However, depending on whether you wish to connect them in series or parallel or bridge the amp, you may only use two terminals. Refer to your amp's diagram for more specifics.
Summary: Know your amps' and sub woofers' limits. Connect all subs to the same terminals in the amp.

Problem: Article: Long-haired rabbits will need daily brushings and will also need regular trimmings to keep their coats around one inch or shorter. If you are uncomfortable doing this on your own, you may take your rabbit to a veterinarian or to an animal groomer to have this done. Bathing can be very traumatic, and is unnecessary, as rabbits tend to groom themselves. If you notice a soiled area on your rabbit, you may want to spot-wash it with a wet towel, but do not submerge your rabbit in water.
Summary: Brush your rabbit at least once every week. Remove mats with a mat splitter or mat rake. Trim your rabbit's nails as needed. Do not bathe your rabbit.

Problem: Article: Plan on leaving your car when you get in the park. The best places to park are Yosemite Village Parking or Yosemite Falls Parking. With park's free shuttle system, you'll skip the hassles of wading through traffic yourself. The shuttle stops at major sites in the Yosemite Valley, where you can get off and explore. The Valley Shuttle, which runs year-round, hits places like The Majestic Yosemite Hotel, the visitor's center, the Lower Yosemite Fall, the Sentinel Bridge, and the Mist Trail. This shuttle runs about every 20 minutes between 7am and 10pm. The El Captain Shuttle, which only runs in the summer, stops at Cathedral Beach, the Four Mile Trailhead, and the El Captain Crossover. This shuttle runs every 30 minutes or so between 9am and 7pm. One way to see the valley is through a guided tour on a open-air tram. The Yosemite Valley Floor Tour is lead by park experts. The tours are generally two hours along, and they will take you all over the Yosemite Valley. If it's too wet or cold, the tour will be by bus. Tours run March through September. You can purchase a ticket online http://www.travelyosemite.com/things-to-do/guided-bus-tours/ at or by calling 888-413-8869. Another way to take in Yosemite Valley is to take a tour up to Glacier Point, the Glacier Point Tour, and hike back to your starting point in the valley. From Glacier Point, it's a downward hike, as you lose 3,200 feet (980m) in elevation getting back to the Valley. A one-way tour is 2 hours. You can buy a ticket online http://www.travelyosemite.com/things-to-do/guided-bus-tours/ at or by calling 888-413-8869. Other options for hikes include Bridalveil Fall (0.5 miles or 0.8 kilometers), Lower Yosemite Fall (1 mile or 1.6 kilometers), Cook's Meadow Loop (1 mile or 1.6 kilometers), Mirror Lake (2 miles or 3.2 kilometers), Valley Floor Loop (13 miles or 20.9 kilometers), and Four Mile Trail (9.6 miles or 15.5 kilometers), just to name a few. You can bring your own bikes or even rent them at the park. Either way, biking is a great way to see Yosemite Valley because it lets you skip the traffic by taking bike trails. Plus, you can bike to places you can't get to by car. You can rent bikes at Yosemite Valley Lodge and the Half Dome Village. Bikes typically run $30/day. The Valley has extensive trails that run all along the center part of the Valley.
Summary:
Hop on the free shuttle. Take a tour of Yosemite Valley. Hike back from Glacier Point. Bike around Yosemite.
