Q: Be available to listen when this person needs a friend. Even if the person does not want help now, they may want some support in the future. Let them know that while you don't approve of their alcoholism that you are available to talk and listen if they need it. Communicate that you are willing to be a friend when they need friendship. Share your thoughts and feelings honestly with the addicted person, letting them know how you feel. Put the focus on you and not on them, as this can cause guilt or shame. For example, instead of saying, "You're destroying yourself and making bad decisions" say, "I don't get to see you anymore, which makes me sad. I miss having you as a part of my life." Let the person know you are worried and are impacted by their drinking. Express your willingness to be supportive as well. Say, "I really don't like how alcohol has impacted our relationship. While this is painful for me, I want to support you because I care about you." If the person expresses interest in seeking treatment, offer to help them however you can. Help them look up treatment facilities, detoxification programs, support groups, or whatever else they are interested in exploring. Offer to drive them to appointments or support them in certain life changes. If the person isn't quite ready for help, make one offer, then wait for them to ask you. If you constantly offer help, the person may become off-put by you and your good intentions. Get informed on local resources for alcohol addiction. For example, look up community groups for alcoholism, treatment specialists, and treatment programs. That way, you can be ready to share information with the person.
A: Be available to listen. Express honesty. Offer to help.

Article: Get the kind of lip gloss that comes with a wand applicator. Do not use the kind that you have to squeeze to get out. Set the wand applicator aside, preferably on a plate so that your table won't get sticky. Both cinnamon essential oil and peppermint essential oil have lip-plumping abilities. They help improve blood circulation to your lips. This may help make your lips appear fuller. Cinnamon oil can be irritating. Consider mixing a drop or two with some oil (such as olive oil) and dabbing it on your inner elbow. If it doesn't irritate your skin, you're good to go. You can also pump the wand applicator up and down in the tube a few times to mix the oil into the lip gloss.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Find a tube of lip gloss. Open up the tube of lip gloss. Add 1 to 2 drops of cinnamon or peppermint essential oil. Close the tube and shake it to combine.

Problem: Article: A trip to a bakery or bakery section of your supermarket will reveal several different types of bread loaves. Pumpernickel and sourdough breads are often round, while Italian and French breads are usually elongated loaves. Larger sandwich rolls can become small bread bowls, or try an unsliced loaf of regular white or wheat bread for a larger option. Even a loaf of raisin or banana bread could work with the right filling. Remember, bread bowls do not need to be round, just fillable. Firmer breads are easier to slice open and empty out, however, so an extra-soft loaf of white bread may not be the ideal choice. With a serrated knife, carefully cut the top of the bread using horizontal cutting strokes. Leave as much of the bread loaf behind; only remove enough of the top of the bread to allow access into the loaf itself. With your fingers, scoop and tear away chunks of bread from the interior of the loaf. Be sure never to break through the outside crust. The thinner the filling you intend to use, the thicker you want to leave the walls of your bread bowl. Cut the removed bread into cubes for dipping either into the soup, chili or dips. Serve the bread alongside the filled bowl. You can also use this bread to make croutons or bread crumbs, or to feed the birds in your local park. Use the removed bread top as a lid, if desired, or cut it up along with the removed inner bread.
Summary: Choose your bread and loaf shape, if not making your own bread. Remove the top of the bread. Remove the inner bread. Don't waste the inner bread. Fill the bread bowl with your selected soup, dip, etc, and enjoy.

Q: While pomegranates are more of a shrub than tree if left to grow untrained, you can trim the plant so that it looks like a tree. This is something that many gardeners do. Using gardening shears or clippers, cut the suckers (the smaller branches that help the plant take on its shrub form) growing at the base of the plant so that it takes on more of a tree shape. Do this shortly after the plant has become established. If you don't care whether your plant is tree-like or not, let it grow naturally. You don't really need to prune your pomegranate tree to maintain it, but it is a good idea to cut away dead or dying branches in the spring to help the tree grow well. You can also thin the plant as you see necessary. If you are growing the pom in a container, you will need to prune and train a bit more heavily, in order to keep the pom the size and shape you want it to be. Avoid mold growth by making sure you do not over water the pom. The two other problems some pomegranates face are aphids and the pomegranate butterfly. You can kill aphids by using a spray bought at your local nursery or garden store. You can also use an integrated pest management practice for killing aphids, which may include attracting ladybugs, spraying trees with water to knock aphids down, or even purchasing predatory insects to consume the aphids. The pomegranate butterfly is not very common and should not be a problem. If it is, use a butterfly spray to rid your trees of the larvae.
A:
Train the plant into tree form, if desired. Remove dead or damaged parts of the plant. Keep the pom healthy.
