Article: When you forget a pill, take the pill as soon as you remember and take the next pill at the regular time. Certain combination pills, especially multiphasic pills, may have additional instructions that you should follow. For most pills, if you don't remember until the next day, you should take two pills on that day. If you forget your pill for two days, take two pills on the first day you remember and two pills on the next day. If you forget a pill at any time during your cycle, you should use a backup form of contraception (such as condoms) until you finish the pill pack. If you forgot a pill during the first week of a pack, you may need to use emergency contraception to prevent pregnancy. If you take progestin-only pills (instead of the more common combination pill), it is extremely important to take it at the same time every day. Even a few hours off can allow you to become pregnant. If you are not sure what to do if you have missed a pill, or if you want to know whether you need to consider emergency contraception, contact your doctor. Tell them exactly what happened (how many pills you forgot, for how many days, etc.). How you treat missing or forgetting a pill varies depending on the pill you're taking, so contacting your doctor is always a good idea. Use another method of birth control if you are sick and experiencing vomiting or diarrhea because the pill may not stay in your digestive tract long enough to be effective. If you vomit or have diarrhea within four hours of taking a pill, it is likely to be ineffective at protecting from pregnancy. Use a backup form of birth control just as you would for a missed pill. If you suffer from an eating disorder and use vomiting or laxatives, an oral contraceptive is unlikely to be effective. Use a backup form of contraception. Consult with your doctor or a mental health professional for help.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Try not to ever miss pills, but compensate if you do. Contact your doctor. Consider alternative options when you're sick.
Article: It's important to have your system set up before you start asking for donations. Otherwise, you will just confuse people and end up turning people off of your organization. If possible, have the donation built into your website, so donors can give right there without having to click somewhere else. Sometimes, organizations get too caught up in flowery language, and it isn't clear to donors exactly what you do. Make sure to lay it out in clear, concise language, so donors will be more willing to support your cause. In addition, make sure your location is prominent. Many people want to give to charities in their community, and if they can't tell where you are or who you support, they may be less likely to give to you. Just like in person, you need to lay out exactly how donations are used in general terms. Anything too complicated will turn donors away. Also, if you ask for more information than you need, that can also turn donors off, as many people are not willing to give out much information online. You can use social media to build relationships online, but not if you sound like a robot. Try to connect with people online by starting with those you know and asking them to encourage friends to join your page. However, don't be afraid to let loose a little. People want to see that there's a real person on the other side of the computer, not just a robot asking for money. Of course, you still want to be professional, but the definition of professionalism is changing as technology changes. For instance, posting a cat video may not be seen as professional by some in older generations, but it does humanize you and help you connect with younger generations. If you have any endorsements from people or organizations outside of yours, it's a good idea to show those prominently on your website. These can include celebrity endorsements, but they can also include endorsements from watchdog organizations. Websites like Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and GoFundMe offer a way to crowdsource funds more easily if you don't already have a way to take payments on your website. People recognize the names of these platforms, and most people trust them already, which encourages them to donate. However, these websites do have different rules. For instance, at Kickstarter, your project must be fully funded before you get any money from the people who donated. GoFundMe, on the other hand, isn't an all-or-nothing platform. Indiegogo is in between, as it lets you choose which way you'd like to go. These platforms are often based on single fundraising campaigns. For instance, they can help get a business or idea off the ground, or they can be used to fund a specific need.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Have a donation system in place. Make it clear what you do. Keep the process simple. Don't be too formal. Show endorsements. Don't be afraid to use donation systems.
Article: When working with stone, you should wear safety googles. You can purchase safety goggles at a local hardware store. Safety goggles will help protect your eyes from bits of stone that may fly off the main piece while you're chiseling. You should learn about the materials you're using. When you purchase stone, it will usually come with safety instructions. There are also generally safety instructions on tools you would use from the hardware store. Do not disregard these rules. Read them in their entirety before you begin to cut stone. When you're cutting stone, you should make sure you dress in a way that will help prevent accidents. Take some basic safety precautions before you begin cutting stone. Remove any jewelry before you begin working. If you have long hair, pull it back into a ponytail. Avoid wearing shorts, as pant legs can protect you from bits of stone that may fly away from the main piece while you're cutting. Where you work is also a safety concern. Make sure you work in a space that's clean and well lit. If an area is full of debris, you could trip and hurt yourself. You also want to make sure you have adequate lighting so you can see what you're doing.
