INPUT ARTICLE: Article: While it may seem that a dish-using appliance like a dishwasher will use more water than you do, newer dishwashers are very water-efficient. In fact, whereas you'll use around 20 gallons (76 L) of water hand washing a load in the sink, the dishwasher will only use 4.5 gallons (17 L). Some dishwashers are also equipped with special fast or economy cycles that use even less water, and these are ideal for lightly soiled dishes. Even if you use a water-saving dishwasher, it's still important to wait until the appliance is full before turning it on. This is because the dishwasher uses the same amount of water no matter how full it is, so you can maximize water use by only running full loads. When you do have to wash dishes by hand, you can save water by putting in the plug and filling the basin with soapy water rather than leaving the water running. Only fill the sink with as much water as you need to wash the dishes. Similarly, rinse dishes in a sink full of clean water rather than running water over them.

SUMMARY: Use an energy-efficient dishwasher instead of handwashing. Run the dishwasher only when it's full. Don't let the water run when washing dishes by hand.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your goal should be simple and attainable, as well as something that a webinar can help you accomplish. Once you've finalized your overriding goal, it'll be much easier to plan out the details of your event. If you're a financial blogger, perhaps you want to use a webinar to advertise your expertise and get more followers. If you're a nonprofit, you probably want to use your webinar to draw attention to your cause and raise money. Each option comes with a different price tag and a unique set of features. The more features your platform provides, the more expensive it will be. For your first webinar, start with a free service. Once you've established yourself and raised enough money to have a webinar budget, choose a more permanent solution. It's important to set aside time to research these platforms. Tailor your platform to your goal. Youtube Live allows you to set up a public live broadcast for free through your Google account. However, live Q&A features aren't available on this platform, and your audience will have a harder time directly connecting with you during the event. omNovia is a higher end service that will let you create top-quality events with pretty much every option you can imagine. Contact them for a specific price estimate. It's possible that you'll be the only speaker featured in your webinar. But if you want your webinar to feel more like a conversation or even a debate, you'll probably need at least 2 speakers. Don't go above 5 speakers per webinar, as the session could start to feel overwhelming to the audience if your panel is too large. Choose people who can give your audience knowledge they don't already have access to. Alternatively, find a speaker your audience will recognize. This may draw in lots of viewers! Get in touch with speakers via email if possible. Otherwise, you may be able to use social media. Tell them that you're hosting a webinar and their expertise is exactly what you need to make it the perfect event. If your audience is small, you may be able to handle a live Q&A session in addition to delivering your main content. However, for audiences larger than 25, it's a good idea to have at least 1 organizer or assistant. They can monitor the Q&A feed while you're talking, pick the best questions, and give them to you once the Q&A session starts. You may also choose to have an organizer who's in charge of 1-2 (or more) assistants. It will be particularly crucial to have help if you're interacting with your audience throughout the webinar instead of in a set session at the end. Start with a personal story that helps your viewers connect with you and illustrates why the overall goal of your webinar is important. Next, move on to the main content of the webinar. Either provide specific information about your organization or make a step-by-step guide that teaches your viewers something. Wrap it up with a conclusion and the Q&A. Your script doesn't have to give a word-for-word of what you're going to say. It is, however, a good idea to have detailed talking points in case you get nervous or lost. Be sure to write down all specifics (like statistics, names, and dates). Start with a simple bulleted outline and then fill it in with more details. This will allow you to begin by visualizing the whole event. Use a service like PowerPoint, Google Slides, or something similar to create a presentation to show your audience during the webinar. This visual can include images, bulleted points of important information, and any references or guides you think your viewers might appreciate. Keep the visual simple and limit your text. Don't directly repeat what you're saying in your slides. While it's a good idea to summarize key points or list facts and stats, you don't want your viewers to feel like they could have just downloaded your presentation and skipped the webinar. If you're working for a nonprofit, you might use viewer fees to support the organization's cause. However, if you're a blogger trying to get your name out there, you may want to focus on getting lots of viewers rather than raising money. If you are going to make viewers pay a fee, you'll need a webinar platform that includes that service. It may be easier to charge your audience members once you've established yourself as a successful webinar host. Run the practice webinar 3-5 days before your real event. Think of this as a dress rehearsal. Test all the technology and go through your script or talking points. Ask a friend or assistant to be a mock audience member so you can do some pretend Q&A. Make note of anything that goes wrong or could be improved.

SUMMARY: Figure out what purpose you want your webinar to serve. Choose the webinar-hosting platform that's best for you. Pick speakers to help you create a great webinar. Use assistants and/or an organizer for larger audiences. Write a general outline and script for the webinar. Create visuals to keep your audience engaged. Decide if you should make audience members pay to attend. Schedule a practice session to smooth out any glitches.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: While proper hygiene is generally considered a preventative measure against urinary tract infections, it is also an essential part of getting rid of the infection sooner. The more you can incorporate healthy and hygienic practices, the better off you will be Wipe from the front to the back after using the bathroom. This is especially important for women, who should always wipe from front to back. Sexual intercourse is one of how bacteria can be introduced into a woman's urethra, eventually ending up in the bladder. To help prevent this, the genital and anal areas should be cleaned before and after sexual activity. Women should also urinate before and after sexual activity. Avoid body lotions and Massage oils as a lubricant unless it says it's safe. These have chemicals that can lead to an infection. Urinating after intercourse empties the bladder and flushes out bacteria. UTIs are not infectious, and you cannot catch one from somebody else. Certain clothes can make it more difficult to get rid of your UTI. Tight-fitting underwear which is made of non-breathable materials can enable a moist and bacteria-friendly environment to develop adjacent to the bladder. For these reasons, go for cotton underwear, rather than non-absorbent fabrics like nylon. Avoid tight-fitting pants or shorts. Tight garments can cause sweat and moisture to build up, creating an ideal breeding ground for bacteria. Wearing the right underwear can help prevent infections developing or worsening, but it won't cure them.

SUMMARY:
Maintain excellent urinary hygiene. Clean before and after sex. Wear the right clothing.
