Q: If you are having to file an answer to a divorce complaint, the divorce proceedings have already begun. How you respond will depend on what has already transpired in the case. Being served with a divorce complaint may or may not come as a surprise, so it is helpful to understand what has happened and why it is happening. Think about the following actions that have likely already taken place and how they might illuminate how you will respond: Your spouse (the petitioner) has started thinking about filing a court case with the goal of ending the marriage between you and them. If this is a surprise, you may be more inclined to respond and contest your spouses allegations. The petitioner has gathered the required documents necessary to file for divorce and they may have retained the services of an attorney. If your spouse has hired an attorney, you should strongly consider doing so yourself. Your spouse (or their attorney) has completed all the required forms and has filed them with the appropriate court. Look at these forms carefully so you can respond to every allegation in them. Someone dissociated from the case has served you (the respondent) with the forms your spouse has filed. This action triggers the need for your response. When you are served with a divorce complaint, your first choice is to not respond and ignore the complaint. While this is certainly the easiest option, it is also the most dangerous. By ignoring the complaint, you are defaulting and giving up your right to partake in the case. If you choose to take this route, your spouse is likely to receive everything they asked for in their complaint. The judge will make their decision about property, support, and custody using only what your spouse requested in their petition. If you choose this option, you will have already reached a divorce agreement with your spouse and your agreement will be in writing and notarized. If this is the case, you can do nothing and you will be considered to have defaulted with an agreement. While this is a type of default, you still have a say in the final outcome of your case because you will have reached an agreement with your spouse about property, support, and custody. If you choose to respond to your spouse's complaint, your first option is to file a response but state that you and your spouse have reached an agreement outside of court. In this instance, your spouse's complaint should allege all of the things you agreed to before they filed the petition. Do not just trust that your spouse has alleged all of the agreed upon terms of your agreement. Before you file a response not contesting your spouse's complaint, look the complaint over carefully and make sure you agree to all of the terms. Your last option involves responding to your spouse's complaint and disagreeing about its terms. Here, you and your spouse can not agree on the terms of your divorce and your response will allege separate facts and will ask the court for different relief.
A: Consider where you are in the divorce proceedings. Do nothing. Do not respond because of an agreement with your spouse. File an uncontested agreement. Contest the petition.

Q: Ensure the depth is equal to the edge of your tubing size insert. Remove the insert and finish advancing the cone into the bell. The bell shape of the tube forms the double thickness flare.
A: Clamp your tubing into the flaring bar. Install the yoke and use it to advance the cone into the tube until a bell shape forms.

Q: If you cannot find your cat and no one has responded to your search, check with local animal shelters. Sometimes a person may find your cat, but not know where you or your cat lives, and may take it to the shelter. Check with both private and city-run animal shelters. Visit in person with details and a picture of your pet to help the staff identify your cat should it be brought in. Check in with your shelter once every 2 or 3 days. In addition to your neighborhood search, you can utilize social media to help the search. Try posting details about your lost cat on these platforms to inform a large group of friends and family at once, getting everyone in on the search. Provide a good picture of your lost cat. Make sure the photo is one that can help identify your pet. Include details about your cat including sex, age, weight, color, name or any other distinguishing marks. Let people know when and where your pet was last seen. By properly providing identification for your pet, you will make it easier for them to be returned home to you if they are lost. The two main forms of pet ID are tags and microchips. Tags are attached to your cat's collar. These tags are usually metal and have your contact information engraved on them. Microchips have to be implanted by a veterinarian. The chip contains your contact information digitally, as a back up in case the collar and tags should come off. Always keep the information on the tags or in the microchip up to date. This will ensure that anyone who finds your cat will know exactly where to return your cat.
A: Call local animal shelters. Try using social media. Properly ID your cat.

Q: Grinding is a serious contributor to both clicking and pain in the jaw area. If you grind your teeth at night or while you work, consider getting a mouthguard. Your dentist can custom-fit one to your mouth, or you can get an inexpensive guard from many pharmacies and sporting goods stores. If you grind your teeth while you sleep, many pharmacies and drug stores sell mouthguards meant specifically for night time wear. Check these out, as they may be more comfortable for your sleeping hours. Habits like chewing pencils or biting your nails can irritate your jaw, contributing to TMJ clicking. Try finding new ways to occupy your hands or direct nervous energy, such as by using a stress ball. You could also consider getting metal mechanical pencils that are unpleasant to chew. Sometimes, you might not even notice that you've started to bite or chew. Ask a friend or coworker to let you know if they see you biting or chewing nervously. Crunchy foods including raw vegetables, chips, hard pretzels, and breakfast cereals can exacerbate jaw clicking. When possible, try to eat softer foods such as pastas, cooked vegetables, omelets, and soup. Excessively chewy foods like soft caramels can make jaw popping worse, too. Try to avoid overly chewy foods. Stress can lead to clenching or grinding your teeth, which can in turn cause or worsen jaw clicking. Try to adopt a personal stress relief program. Even small changes such as practicing deep breathing in a stressful situation can help reduce physical symptoms. Try to take just 5 minutes a day to meditate. Sit in a comfortable position, close your eyes, and try to clear your mind. If you're new to the practice, you may want to look up a guided meditation online to help take you through the process. If you find a certain situation at school or work is particularly stressful, excuse yourself for a moment. Walk into a calm area, and take a few deep breaths before going back in. Taking a quick walk during your lunch break or once you get home for the day can be a great way to relieve daily stress.
A:
Wear a mouthguard to prevent teeth grinding. Try to stop nervous biting and chewing. Eat softer foods instead of crunchy ones. Work to reduce stress in your daily life.
