This helps ensure AirPlay runs efficiently across all compatible Apple devices. This refreshes the Wi-Fi connection on both devices so AirPlay can be enabled. This feature is normally enabled by default, but may be disabled on your Apple TV if it doesn't display in Control Center. Devices that are turned off or have a low battery charge may not be detected by AirPlay on your iOS device. Low or muted volume on one or both devices can interfere with sound when using AirPlay. This can help strengthen your network connection and prevent lagging. Microwaves, baby monitors, and metal objects can cause interference with streaming between your iOS and AirPlay devices.

Summary: Install the latest updates for iOS and iTunes on devices you're using with AirPlay. Restart the iOS device and your Apple TV if you don't see AirPlay in Control Center. Enable AirPlay under "Settings" on your Apple TV if the feature fails to show up in Control Center. Verify the device you want to stream to is plugged in and powered on if it's not listed in Control Center. Check the volume on both devices if you can see videos but cannot hear audio. Try using a wired Internet connection with an Ethernet cable if your content lags or becomes interrupted while streaming on the Apple TV. Try relocating any nearby objects or devices that might be interfering with AirPlay playback. Finished.

Your article should offer some new information or a unique perspective. Editors are looking for a fresh take on a topic that will excite or interest their readers. This is true for fiction and non-fiction. Make it clear why your article is original. For example, if you are writing an academic article, you can emphasize the new sources you've utilized. In your introduction, highlight the unique aspects of your research. For example, you might say, "Based on newly declassified sources,..." If you are submitting a personal essay, explain your point of view. Make it clear to the editor and the readers why your take on the topic is interesting. You could say, "My experience as a first time mother was different than most because..." No matter what type of article you are writing, it is important that you edit your piece very carefully. Editors will not be impressed if you submit an article that is full of errors. You also need to make sure that your article flows coherently. After you produce a first draft, go back and edit for content. Make sure that the points you are trying to make are clear. Pay attention to organization. Do you make it clear at the beginning what the point of your article is? Is your conclusion thorough? Would reorganization help? Edit for grammatical/stylistic errors. Make sure that your spell check is set to check style as well as just grammar. Spend time carefully reading each sentence to make sure your piece is error free. Sometimes it can be difficult to be objective about your own writing. Or maybe you are just feeling uncertain about your content and you could just use some advice. No matter what you are working on, it can be really useful to get a second opinion. Ask a friend to read your work. Try saying, "Do you have some time this week to read an article that I'm working on?" Accept constructive criticism. Don't take it personally if your friend offers you some tips for improvement. Choose a friend whose opinion you respect. This will make it easier to accept and utilize their feedback. During the editing process, it is important to make sure that you understand all of the submission guidelines. The guidelines should be clearly stated on the publication websites. Most journals, magazines, and papers will tell you the precise qualifications for an article. Pay close attention to the guidelines. They are not merely suggestions. Many publications will not read your work if it does not fit the parameters of the guidelines. Adhere to the length requirements. Most journals will give you a word count for minimum and maximum length. Format your citations as specified. Some publications prefer endnotes, some require footnotes. Make sure you use whichever system the journal uses.

Summary: Say something original. Edit extensively. Get some feedback. Follow the submission guidelines.

. Turn off your television and your cell phone, and eliminate other external distractions. Use a space in which you feel comfortable and free from the need to complete tasks and other stressors. Set aside designated time to meditate, preferably between twenty minutes and a couple hours, depending on your abilities and preferences. Wear comfortable clothes that are suitable for your space's temperature. You'll want to avoid being distracted by stiff clothing or by being too hot or too cold. Don't allow birds chirping, cars driving by, and other unavoidable external sounds to interrupt your meditation. Being aware of the world and its interconnections can actually be beneficial to meditation. However, if you live in a location, such as by a subway stop or train track, where noise is dominating your thoughts, you should consider putting on music or a mantra recording, both of which are available on Youtube and other services. To eliminate stiffness and tension in your body as you sit still to meditate, you should stretch yourself out before beginning. Take a few minutes before meditating to stretch your legs, hips, back, shoulders, and neck. While sitting, hold your legs out straight in front of you and reach for your toes to stretch your calves and hamstrings. Bend your knees while seated and bring the soles of your feet together to stretch your hips and quadriceps. Typically, one sits in a seated, cross-legged position when they meditate. Do so only if it's comfortable for you to sit cross-legged for an extended period of time, and hold your back upright, unbowed but not unnaturally straight. However, consider sitting in a chair or with your back braced by a wall or other object if you are unable to sit cross-legged without discomfort. Remember it's important to wear comfortable clothes that allow you to sit still for a while. You will want to avoid distractions from tension or stiffness in your body. Especially if you are just beginning to practice meditation, it is most important to find a distraction-free, comfortable body position. Sit on a yoga mat, a cushion, or on folded blankets or towels for more comfort. Begin your meditation with controlled breathing techniques. Be conscious of your breathing and use each breath you take to focus your intention. Breathe in slowly as you count to four, hold for four, and exhale for four. Let your awareness on your breath help you clear your mind and focus your concentration. As you inhale, consider light flowing through your essence, as life rises through your vertebrae and fills you. Imagine the energy-filled center at the point where your in-breath fuses with your out-breath. As you exhale and your breath is out completely, visualize a universal pause in which your particular self vanishes and focus on your interconnectedness with everything around you.
Summary: Prepare yourself and your space for meditation Stretch your body. Sit in a comfortable position. Establish your breathing.
