Q: When it comes time to make your escape, you'll do so by first working your outer arm free. Having your stronger arm on the outside will make it much easier to generate the force you need to slip out of the starting position. Straitjackets work by immobilizing the wearer's arms across their lower abdomen, where they're unable to harm themselves or others. You may not have the choice of which arm to keep in front of you if you're ever being placed in a straitjacket for real (which is unlikely). For this reason, it can be a good idea to practice using both arms as your lead if you want to be prepared for any situation. Without attracting too much attention, grab a handful of the material just underneath your dominant hand and keep a firm grip on it. Bunching up the fabric before the jacket is cinched tight will give you 24 inches (5.110.2cm) of slack, which will help you tremendously later on. If you're not able to take hold of the fabric because you're being watched or can't move your fingers, don't worryit's a helpful step, but not a necessary one. Fill your lungs with air and keep the muscles of your torso rigid until you're strapped in. Once the straitjacket is secure, exhale completely and relax your core. The fabric, which was previously stretched to the limit, will now hang limply around your upper body. Lift your elbows as you inhale to give your chest more room to expand. Stand up perfectly straight until the last strap has been buckled. Then, let your shoulders fall and bend over slightly at the midsection. The more compact you can make your frame, the more space you'll give yourself to maneuver. Recall what you were told bad posture looked like growing up and try to emulate this position.
A: Cross your dominant arm over the other as the jacket is being put on. Pinch the fabric on the side of the straitjacket. Take a deep breath as the jacket is being buckled. Make yourself as small as possible.

Q: If you must spend time with a person who repeatedly insults or teases you, come up with a plan for how you will address the situation. Thinking through ways you can respond and role-playing can help you handle the situation. Practice role-playing with a trusted friend or family member. Try having your best friend say, "Anna, your haircut is really awful." You can respond with, "Thank you for your opinion, but I like it and that is what matters." If your boss is insulting you in a belittling way, come up with a plan. Try saying, "Bob, your teasing is unprofessional, hurtful, and is hindering my productivity. I will report it to human resources if it continues." It's important to stay calm when you are being teased or insulted, even if your instinct is to get angry or cry. People who tease and insult others are often looking for a reaction. Keep your cool and stay grounded. When someone insults you, try taking several deep breaths before responding to them. Be confident and clear with the aggressor about how his or her insults affect you. Use a firm, yet calm tone and explain why you are not okay with their teasing. Try saying to a classmate who teases you about your shoes, "It makes me angry when you insult me in front of our classmates. So stop it." If your co-workers are heckling you at work in a sexist way, try saying, "Your teasing and insults are bordering on sexual harassment. If this happens again I will report you immediately to our supervisor." Sometimes the best response to an insult is to ignore it. You can pretend you didn't hear it at all or change the subject to something completely off topic. Ignoring your aggressor's teasing or insults instead of reacting will prevent fuel being added to the fire. If you are insulted or teased online, don't respond. If you are being insulted by a family member, try to ignore the insult and leave the room. Using humor to react to being teased or insulted is an effective response. Humor can diffuse a tense situation, disarm the aggressor, and even undermine the insult. Try making a joke when someone insults or teases you. If your coworker insults the poster you bring to a conference try saying, "You're right. This is an awful poster. I really shouldn't have let my five-year-old do my work for me." Another option might be to act shocked and engage in some playful banter with the person. For example, you might say something like, "Oh my goodness! You're right! Thank you for helping me to see the light!" It is important that you report these kinds of harassment immediately. This type of teasing is often against the law. Go directly to an authority figure if you are being teased or insulted in this way. For example, if you are being repeatedly insulted by a parent or family member it might be time to sit down and have a conversation about the abuse. Be direct about how the teasing makes you feel and how such harassment affects your life. If your mother continually insults your appearance, try saying, "Mom, I feel hurt when you comment on my clothing, hair, or makeup. It hurts my feelings. From now on, please stop making these comments." Even if the teasing is non-malicious, you can still say something to the person if it bothers you, such as "I love hanging out with you and it's fun teasing each other sometimes, but the following topics hurt my feelings and those are off limits now: clothes, husband, kids, etc"
A: Prepare for the situation. Stay calm. Be assertive. Ignore the insult. React with humor. Report teasing and insults based on your gender, sexuality, race/ethnicity, religion, or disability. Have a conversation with your aggressor.

Q: " While it is possible to alter the color of the artboard itself, this change is only visible in the digital version of the project. The altered artboard color will not appear in any printed versions of your work. Select "File" and choose "Document Setup" from the drop down menu. This change only exists within Adobe Illustrator. When you print or export your project, the artboard will revert to its original white color. To change the background color permanently, you need to create a separate background layer. Locate the "Transparency" section. Check the box next to "Simulate Colored Paper. The "Simulate Colored Paper" feature mimics actual paper. The darker the paper, the darker your artwork will appear. If you set the background color to black, your artwork would disappear because it would not be visible on real black paper. Within the "Transparency" section, locate the white rectangle. Click on the white rectangle to open up a "Color Palette" dialogue box. Select a color from the palette and click "Ok." To save the changes you made to the artboard, click "Ok" again. Even though you saved the changes, the new artboard color only exists within Adobe Illustrator. If you print or export your work, the artboard will revert to its original white color. Creating a separate background layer is the only way to permanently change the background color.
A:
Open "Document Setup. Change the transparency settings. Change the background color.
