Problem: Article: On a mat, sit with your legs straight out in front of you. Your feet and legs should be close together. Also, make sure your back and neck are straight. Ardha Matsyendrasana, also known as a sitting half-spinal twist, massages the abdominal organs, such as the pancreas, kidneys, liver, stomach, small intestines, and gall bladder. It helps eliminate toxins and stimulates digestion. Then, place the heel of your left foot underneath your right leg and beside your right hip. Also, put your right leg over your left knee. Place your left hand on the right knee and your right hand behind you. While keeping your spine erect, twist your waist, shoulders, and neck to the right. Look over your right shoulder. Hold this position for at least 10 seconds while breathing in and out. While breathing out, release your right hand, i.e., the hand behind you, first. Then, release your waist, chest, and neck in that order. Sit up straight, but relaxed. Repeat steps two through four for the opposite side.
Summary: Sit with your back straight. Bend your left leg. Twist your waist. Release your right hand.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Whether you are using a standard measuring tape or a horse-measuring device, write down your horse's measurement right away. This will help you remember it while you are dealing with handling your horse and putting away the measuring device. If the measurement is already in hands, it can be written with an "hh" at the end. This notation stands for "hands high." One hand equals 4 inches (10.2cm), so divide the measurement by 4. For example, if the horse measures 71 inches (180cm) tall, divide 71 by 4. The result is 17 hands with 3 inches (7.6cm) left over. The final height would be recorded as 17.3 hands. If the horse measuring stick or tape is being used, then the measurement can be recorded in hands immediately. The easiest way to do this is to convert the centimeter measurement into inches first. Simply take your centimeter measurement and multiply it by .39. This will give you the measurement in inches. Once the measurement is in inches, it can be divided by 4 and converted into hands. For example, if your horse is 162 centimeters tall, use the equation: 162 x .39. This equals 63.77 inches. When a horse's height includes a portion of a hand, it is written as a decimal after the whole hand measurement. However, it is not a standard decimal form. For a half hand, indicate the measurement with .2, which says that is 2 inches (5.1cm) in addition to full hands. Use .1 for a quarter hand and .3 for three-quarters of a hand. For example, if the horse is 16 whole hands and 3 inches (7.6cm) it should be written as 16.3. .1, .2, and .3 are the only decimals you will use. If the measurement is any bigger than that it will just be an additional whole hand. The height of a horse is used most often when buying or selling a horse. Having this measurement allows a person to know exactly how big a horse is and whether a horse will be the right size for them to ride or to do the kind of work they want done. For example, if you like having a horse that is not very tall so that you can get on an off of it easily, pick a horse a that is under 16 hands tall, as 16 hands tall is the height of an average horse. If you want a strong, tall horse so that it will have a lot of strength and stamina, consider getting a horse that is over 16 hands tall. A horse measuring under 14.3 hands high is, by definition, a pony, regardless of its breed.

SUMMARY: Record the measurement. Convert a measurement in inches into hands, if necessary. Convert a centimeter measurement into hands, if necessary. Write portions of hands in a specific decimal form. Use height measurements to determine whether a horse is the size you want.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Why did the two of you get into a fight? Sometimes friends disagree and need to clear the air, just like couples argue. Fighting isn't always bad; you can express your feelings and resolve misunderstandings. But sometimes, a fight may be bigger than a simple disagreement, and it may cause you to reevaluate your friendship. Know your limits. There may be some behaviors that you consider unforgivable. For example, you may not be able to tolerate betrayal, gossip, or cheating. If your fight crossed one of these lines, you may decide you need to end the friendship. Sometimes friends may fight over different values. If this is the case, you may want to determine if sharing differing belief systems is a deal-breaker. For example, while you may not share the same political views, is this something that you can get past? Maybe you could agree to not talk about politics, or to share your views without arguing and agreeing to stop if things get hostile. Some friends may just be more confrontational, and having fights with each other is common. One or both of you may have certain behaviors that always trigger arguments. You may also notice fight patterns in your relationship, particularly if you have been friends for a while. Consider your personalities. You may just be two people who like to argue -- with everyone or each other -- a lot. As long as that works for both of you, then it's probably not necessary to end the friendship. But if you feel like you are fighting a lot, you might want to consider talking to your friend about arguing less. You and your friend may always find yourself fighting because of someone's bad habits; for example, you are perpetually late in meeting your friend. If that's the case, it may be better to address the behavior rather than end the friendship. For example, you may notice that you and your friend don't argue for long stretches at a time about anything, then all of the sudden have a huge blow-up which leaves you not speaking for weeks. You may want to talk to your friend about being more open to sharing when you disagree with each other at the time, rather than letting resentment build up. Does your friend have a pattern of fighting with other friends frequently? Do they provoke fights or end a lot of friendships? If it seems like this is a pattern with your friend, you may want to take steps to end the friendship. There will likely be drama again in the future. If your friend is the kind of person who is always stirring up drama and making you feel as though you are walking on eggshells around them, afraid you will say the wrong thing, it is probably best that you distance yourself from them. How do you feel when you are with your friend? Does your friend lift you up, make you feel good about yourself, listen to you and support you? Or do you feel like your friendship is not genuine, or that you are always relieved at the end of your time together? If your friendship leaves you feeling more drained than fulfilled, it may be time to move on. You may have physical or emotional stress symptoms every time you are around your friend. For example, do you feel a knot in your stomach or a tightening in your chest when you are around your friend? Do you feel anxious, irritable, or competitive in their presence? If so, this may not be the healthiest friendship for you, and you may wish to disengage.
Summary:
Consider the reasons behind your fight. Look at the history of your friendship. Think about your friend's behavior. Consider your feelings about the friendship.
