In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You'll need to know exactly what's going into the dishes. Is there chicken broth in the stuffing? How about the gravy? And how do they feel about catering to your wishes? You know them best -- what would they respond to? Offer to make a compromise. You can either offer to host (taking the weight off their shoulders and the pressure to stay healthy off you), offer to help cook (that way you can influence what goes in the recipes or have portions set aside pre-meat stage), or offer to bring some side dishes. You'll definitely need to plan the menu together! Many vegetarians find that if they don't make a big deal of it, no one else will either. So if you're fine just using logic, reason, and a bit of coy prying ("Mmm, grandma, this looks so good! What's all in it?"), you may get through Thanksgiving without Uncle Bob waving bacon in your face. Consuming a bit of chicken stock once a year will not make the vegetarian gods take your gold star away. You know what your family will respond to. If Aunt Flo won't accommodate you when you say, "I have a disturbing documentary for you to watch on the terrors of the agricultural industry, Flo," don't waste your time. Instead, consider saying, "I'm trying to be as healthy as possible. Vegetarians live longer, have lower rates of heart disease and cancer, and you know about our history of high blood pressure." In other words, speak their language. If they see your reasoning, they may be more open to compromise. Know your pesky uncle is trying to make you smile. When you're subject to a surprising amount of Tofurkey jokes, don't be alarmed. Your awkward relatives are just trying to relate to you in any way they know how. That and, well, they may honestly just not get it. And that's fine. Smile anyway. Going into Thanksgiving and demanding your 94 year-old meat-and-potatoes grandma change up the Thanksgiving she's been cooking for over half a century and leaving her to the wolves is just cruel. Give her some tips! If she doesn't want you in the kitchen with her (or you bringing your own dishes), she may need some pointers. You know the drill. Mushroom gravy. Using olive oil instead of butter. Almond milk instead of dairy. Coconut oil in the sweet potatoes. Vegetable stock instead of chicken stock. Yadda, yadda, yadda ad infinitum. Ask for a portion to be put aside before meat or animal products get put in. That way everyone can be happy! And you're perfectly willing to join in the dividing and adding the mushroom gravy and veggie stock yourself, of course.
Summary: If you're dead set on consuming absolutely zero animal products, talk to your host. If you're willing to fudge a little, consider not mentioning it at all. Know your audience. Offer suggestions to your host.

Pick a specific day to profile a person. Observe their speech patterns and hand motions throughout the day. Does this behavior match up with how the person usually acts? If so, you can profile that the individual is in a normal mood, and not behaving any differently than they normally would. For instance, if an expressive person starts hiding their hands in a conversation, you can profile that they aren't being completely honest or open. Try to identify large changes in a person's speech. If they start speaking casually to someone they usually use formal language with, you can assume that the person is in a friendly mood, or that they are becoming friends with the other individual. Watch how the person carries themselves throughout the day. Observe your profiling target when they're moving as well as when they're standing still. If their posture seems sloppy or closed off, you can profile the person as upset or uncomfortable, depending on the circumstance. If the person seems confident and relaxed, you can profile that the individual in question feels comfortable. Posture can also be situational in different conversations. If a person is speaking with someone that they don't like, their posture will reflect that. For instance, a person will lean away from someone that they're not close or friendly with. Watch your profiling target as you speak with them, or as they speak with others. Pay attention to their eye movement as the conversation continues. Is the person able to maintain firm and comfortable eye contact, or is their gaze fleeting and downcast? If an individual isn't willing to make eye contact, you can profile that they're nervous and uncomfortable in the conversation. If a person can't make consistent eye contact, it might mean that they're hiding something. Speak with the person that you're profiling, and take note of their intonation as they reply. Does the person speak in a normal, relaxed tone of voice? Note if your profiling target is mumbling, or if their speech seems more stiff and irritated than usual. Then, try drawing conclusions based on these different vocal cues. For instance, if a person's voice sounds rigid, they might be irritated or uncomfortable with some aspect of the conversation.

One-sentence summary -- Compare someone's words and gestures to their baseline behaviors. Examine their physical movement and posture for deviations. See if the person is willing to make eye contact. Listen for any differences in their tone of voice.

Problem: Article: In some cases, unless the circuit has been installed by a licensed contractor and then approved by a local building/electrical inspector, the manufacturer won't recognize the warranty. The power that runs the hot tub must be given a dedicated circuit because of its electrical demands. No other appliances or electrical demands should share the power. Again, if there is any doubt about how to wire the circuit responsible for the hot tub, use a licensed electrician. Otherwise, here is some important information about wiring that you should know: The size of the wire you use must be approved by the National Electrical Code (NEC) and/or local codes. The size of the wire you use should be based on the length of run from the breaker box to the hot tub. The maximum current draw should also play a role in determining wire size. Copper wire is recommended with THHN (thermoplastic nylon) insulation. In fact, all wiring should be copper; aluminum wire should be avoided. If using wire larger than #6 (10mm2), be sure to put a junction box close the hot tub. Then, reduce the wire to short lengths of #6 (10mm2) in between the junction box and the hot tub. When it comes down to it, saving a few hundred extra bucks isn't worth the potential disaster of voiding the warranty or causing serious bodily harm or death. Please see a professional if you no experience wiring electrical circuits.
Summary:
Know that some warranties will be voided if the electrical circuit isn't installed by an electrical contractor. If you decide to do the wiring yourself, keep the power on a single dedicated circuit. If wiring on your own, make sure your specs are right. If you have any doubts, use the services of a professional.
