INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This is called the slugline and should appear in ALL CAPS at the beginning of a scene. Use "INT" for an interior location and "EXT" for an exterior location. For example, you may write: "EXT. CARNIVAL - MIDDAY" or "INT. LIVING ROOM - NIGHT." Whenever you use a character name in the script, write it in ALL CAPS. You can then write their dialogue under their name. Center the character's name and dialogue on the page so it is easy to follow. For example, you may write:AL THE ALIENCome on Mom, let's ride the Blaster!MAMA ALIENNot a chance on Mars, honey, way too dangerous. Include any sounds in the scene in parentheses and ALL CAPS. For example, you may write, "(CLANKING NOISES)" or "(EXPLODING NOISES)."You should also write any actions done by the characters in ALL CAPS and bold. For example, you may write, "She KICKS the human" or "He CRIES into his pillow."

SUMMARY: Note the location and time of day of each scene. Format the dialogue for each character. Describe the sounds and actions in the scene.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you have consistently low oxygen saturation levels due to a condition like COPD, your doctor may decide to place you on supplemental oxygen. This treatment involves the use of oxygen tanks, flexible tubing, and a cannula that feeds the oxygen into your nose. Patients who follow their prescribed oxygen regimens can often lead long and reasonably active lives. Don't resist this treatment because you're worried you'll be "chained" to an oxygen tank and stuck in bed for life. Portable tanks can be very unobtrusive and allow you to go out and about with more energy and endurance. People on supplemental oxygen will usually be taught how to monitor their own oxygen saturation by placing a pulse oximeter on their finger, earlobe, or nose. The process is quick, easy, non-invasive, and painless. As per your doctor's recommendations, you can adjust your supplemental oxygen to compensate for lower saturation readings, or when you are engaging in activities like walking or light exercise. If you have low oxygen saturation due to COPD or a similar condition, you will likely take medications along with using supplemental oxygen. These may include controller medications that you will take on a regular schedule to improve your breathing and lung function, as well as rescue medications to use when you're having more acute breathing difficulties. There are numerous types of inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), short- and long-acting beta-2 agonists (SABA & LABA), and other medications that may be prescribed to you. Make sure you understand your doctor's instructions for using them, and follow the plan diligently. These medications are also known as bronchodilators. Bronchodilators increase the diameter of your airways and this helps to increase oxygenation. If you have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), then your airways might not stay open on their own. This may lead to decreased oxygen saturation. Ask your doctor about getting a PAP or BiPap machine to help keep your airways open and raise your oxygen saturation. The machine comes with a hose and a mask that you wear over your mouth and nose. While supplemental oxygen, medication, and respiratory training has been and continues to be the common and often effective treatment plan for low oxygen saturation, new options continue to be developed. One example is stem cell treatment, in which stem cells are harvested from your blood or bone marrow, isolated, and reintroduced to your lungs. New treatments can also carry new risks, of course, or turn out not to be as effective as initially hoped. Do some research on your own to find out what options are out there, and work with your medical team to determine the treatment plan that is right for you.

SUMMARY: Use supplemental oxygen as prescribed. Learn to check your oxygen saturation and supplementation regularly. Take any prescribed medications as directed. Ask your doctor about using a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine. Keep an eye out for emerging treatments.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Begin by looking at samples of other brochures. This can be easily done online, but you can pay attention to brochures handed to you at business conferences as well. When browsing brochures, try to play the role of the customer and make note of the brochures that are most appealing. You may ask yourself a number of questions. Does this brochure look good? Does it tell me what I need to know? Does it catch my eye immediately? What works with this brochure, and what does not? On the other hand, ask why is this a bad brochure? There are a number of programs available to assist in designing brochures. QuarkXPress and Adobe InDesign are highly regarded, but there are many other desktop programs that will help to create a professional brochure. PagePlus is a less expensive alternative, for example. Web-based programs are also available, and these allow you to make a brochure without purchasing your own software. MyCreativeShop is a popular web-based choice. Before purchasing expensive desktop software, be sure the program has a function for brochure design. Try experimenting with your new program. Learn its functions and spend time playing with the different features. Also, search the web for video tutorials for the program. Web-based design is a good alternative, but note that there typically charges for using a template, printing and shipping. A template is a mold that you can follow when you make your own professional brochure. Once you have your software or web-based program, begin to identify which template appeals to you and fits your business. Think back to when you were finding samples. The advantage of selecting a template is that it will allow you to plug your information into a brochure that you know will have the professional look you want. You do not have to use a template, and can create your own for a personal touch if you chose. If you decide to use a template, you may want to avoid standard templates from brochure building programs that may be overused. Be sure to conduct a thorough search to find the best template for you.

SUMMARY: Find some samples. Search for a quality software program or web-based creator. Consider if you want to use a template, and narrow down which template is for you.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Write out what is bothering you, brainstorm how many different ways you can approach the problem, assess the pros and cons of each approach, implement an approach, and evaluate the outcome. Writing out your problems then brainstorming solutions, no matter how far-fetched they may seem, is a sound way of taking steps to solve those problems. Resourcefulness is one of the key factors to overcoming any challenge. Being resourceful includes asking for help so don't be afraid to turn to your family, friends, or colleagues for assistance. Whether it be how many sales you close at work or how often you cook dinner at home instead of ordering take-out, tracking and evaluating your activities is the best way to witness progress, see what's working, and fix what's not helpful. Once you can track and accomplish your goals, you can self-evaluate. Be your own critic. Be objective and realistic when you self-evaluate, and remember, "if it is to be, it's up to me." If you find yourself engaging in self-doubt, telling yourself you "can't do it" or "if only", you are buying into an external locus of control and may feel stuck in your present situation. Instead, tell yourself, "I think I can." Repeat positive mantras such as "I can do this" or "I'm getting better at this." Examine your "if only" statements and reword them positively. For example, "if only I had more time" can change to "I can find 10 minutes a day to do yoga." Believing in yourself is half the battle.

SUMMARY:
Develop your problem solving abilities. Be resourceful. Self-evaluate. Revise your language.
