Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Look for the diameter listed on the lens barrel. Measure the lens diameter with a ruler. Get an adapter for your lens if the filter you have doesn't fit. Choose between screw-on or square filters.

Answer: Inspect the lens and look for the "" symbol near the base that screws into the camera body. The number following the symbol is the diameter of the lens in millimeters. Make sure you get a filter that fits the size of your lens. The number may be painted on the lens or etched into the surface. If you can't find the diameter, look at the original packaging or instruction manual for the lens to find out. Hold the edge of a ruler across the widest part of the lens, which should be directly through the middle of it. Measure the length from the threaded area on the inside rim of the lens to the other inside edge directly across from it. Be sure to take your measurement in millimeters. Most common lenses have a diameter between 49-77mm. Filter adaptors are rings that screw onto your camera lens so you can use larger or smaller filters. Attach the adaptor to the end of your lens before attaching the filter to it. Once they're both screwed on, then your camera is ready to use. Filter adaptors may not fit on wide-angle lenses. Screw-on filters attach directly onto your camera, but they can only fit certain sizes. Square filters use an adaptor to fit multiple lens sizes, but they can be more expensive and cause light to leak into the photo. Choose the style of filter that works best for you. Screw-on filters help protect the camera lens, but square filters do not.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Ask the candidate for information about the job before the reference check, if possible. Ask if they would like you to focus on anything in particular. Make sure that there are no details you should avoid. Prepare a concise and favorable description of the candidate.

Answer: If someone asks you to provide a reference for them, get as much information about their goals as possible. Inquire about what kind of opportunity the candidate applied for, and ask them to give you the job description, if possible. You'll be best equipped to portray them as an ideal candidate if you know what the job is looking for. A candidate might ask for a reference with the hope that you will give them credit for specific skills or accomplishments. For instance, if a former employee learned bookkeeping skills while working for your company, they might want you to focus on that point. Ask the candidate what they would like you to narrow in on when providing a reference for you. The candidate you are endorsing may not want a potential employer, landlord, or other individuals to know certain details about their personal or professional background. Knowing what to avoid will make it easier to answer reference questions without awkwardness or worry. During a reference check, you will almost certainly be asked to describe the person you are being asked about. To avoid being put on the spot, think ahead about the best way to summarize their strengths and skills. Preparing this in advance will allow you to answer more confidently and sound more convincing.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Show you care in non-romantic ways. Give friendly compliments. Avoid flirtatious touching. Set clear boundaries Appreciate your friendship.

Answer: Be a good friend, but avoid giving him the wrong idea that you care more than you really do. Keep it simple and relaxed. Do things for him that you'd do for any other friend you have. You might try to: Distract him by going out for pizza if he's had a difficult day. Help him move or pack when he needs it. Check-in occasionally to ask how he's doing if you live far away from each other. Help him brainstorm solutions to any problems he's having, like how to deal with a difficult boss or professor. Introduce him to your other friends or people he could date. Be just as encouraging to your male friend as you would to your female friends. Show your support by smiling at him, giving him pep-talks, and boosting his mood. Avoid complimenting his physical appearance to avoid awkwardness, confusion, or mixed signals. Show your appreciation or gratitude. You could say, "Thank you so much for listening to me about that problem at school. You're point of view was really helpful!" Build up his strength when he is having difficulty. Don't be fake or invalidate his feelings or experience, but do be honest that you think well of him and believe in him. You might say, "I hear that it's tough for you right now. That really sucks. But just know that you're strong and I think you're going to make it through this." A normal friendship may consist of touching or hugging. But touch can be a powerful way to flirt, so be careful how you touch your friend. You can still give him a goodbye hug or an innocent high five, but avoid sending mixed signals with prolonged or intimate touching. Avoid touching your friend's arms or face. Avoid lingering hugs with full body contact. Don't give your friend massages or shoulder rubs. Avoid cuddling or putting your arm around your friend. Realize that some people may be flirty without realizing it. . It will be much easier to maintain a friendship if you have rules. Think of each other more as siblings. Spend time doing activities that are non-romantic in nature. If you're married or dating someone else, avoid sharing secrets or talking about intimate things with this friend that you wouldn't share with your spouse or partner, too. If you regularly travel with your friend for leisure or work, avoid sharing hotel rooms, sharing romantic meals, and drinking too much alcohol together. If you work with your friend, keep it light while you're at work. Don't seek comfort about issues with your spouse or partner while at work. If you're single, don't create a "friends with benefits" situation. Sex complicates friendships, particularly if one person is hoping it will turn into a relationship. Flirting or developing romantic interest could take away the many benefits the two of you are experiencing in your friendship. Remind yourself that: Your male friend can give you perspectives and insights you might not get from female friends. Your male friend can meet your needs of belonging and connection. Your male friend may provide you the freedom to not talk about feelings as much as you might with your female friends. You may also give your male friend a safer space to share feelings if he wants to.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Ensure that you have the basic needs of food, water, shelter and a job. Go for a walk. Think about how much sleep you get on a daily basis. Make plans to interact with people.

Answer:
Fulfilling these basic needs gives you the certainty you need to feel in control of your life. If you don't have these needs fulfilled, call your state's welfare agency and/or job services to get started. Exercise and activity is another essential human need. If possible, walk or workout outside of the home where you will get some sun, nature and interaction with other people. If you average less than 7 hours sleep per week, revise your schedule to meet this important need. Well-rested people have less stress and feel happier. Call close friends or family, arrange for dinner with a friend or go meet some new people at a community event. Social interaction is a basic need and can improve self-esteem. If meeting new people is difficult, start small. Look for a local community event in your local paper or have a Skype video chat with a close friend in another location. Try to schedule something at the same time every week so it becomes a regular part of your life. {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/e\/ef\/Empower-Yourself-Step-04Bullet01.jpg\/v4-460px-Empower-Yourself-Step-04Bullet01.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/e\/ef\/Empower-Yourself-Step-04Bullet01.jpg\/aid3881661-v4-728px-Empower-Yourself-Step-04Bullet01.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":345,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"546","licensing":"<div class="mw-parser-output"><p>License: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/">Creative Commons<\/a><br>
