Article: Browse mitts that are specifically designed for either catcher or first baseman. Catcher's mitts are the biggest; their circumference typically exceeds 30 inches. First baseman's mitts resemble gloves, with less padding and more length than a catcher's mitt. Adult sizes range from 12-13". On your way to the mitt section, grab a ball and bring it with you. Judge your ability to grip it securely through all that heavy padding. For younger first basemen, especially aged 10 and under, be sure they are able to close the mitt. If this is too difficult, use an infielder's glove instead. Although all mitts will feel heavy in comparison to gloves, avoid buying a mitt that feels too heavy. Be sure that the mitt's weight does not impede your ability to transfer the ball to your free hand for a quick throw to your teammates.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Choose the right mitt for your position. Test the fit. Judge the weight.

Problem: Article: In many U.S. states you can prove that serving on a jury would cause a serious financial burden on you. Use this excuse only if you honestly believe that you would not be able to get by if you had to miss work for one or more days. When you first report for jury duty bring with you proof of employment and/or wages, a full financial statement, and the previous year's tax return. If you can persuade the judge that you cannot afford to miss work, you'll have lost only one day of your time. Exemptions based on financial need are extremely rare, even if you're facing serious challenges. Don't count on the court's taking financial need into consideration. Don't lie about your financial situation. Lying to a court is called perjury. It's a felony. You could also be charged with obstruction of justice. Almost all federal, state, and local jury-selection processes are computerized. If your name appears on the list, they send an automated notice of jury duty to your registered address. When you receive it, mark on the jury form that you need special accommodations and cannot make the requested attendance date. Include an explanation. For example, you might say that you are quite sick, going out of town, studying for the bar, or planning on joining the military. Any acceptable excuse will likely set your next jury summons back at least a year. If you have young children, consider using them as an excuse. You would have to convince the court that you cannot arrange for day-care or a babysitter. If you can get a change of date, ask for December, when there's a far greater chance that trials will be delayed or moved. You may never actually get called in, but you're still fulfilling your civic duty. This means you would serve your jury duty sooner than originally scheduled. The lawyers have likely already made the jury lists for closer dates, and there's a chance they won't be able to seat you. So when your date is moved they have to put you at the end of the list. You may not get called to serve on a jury at all. Many states excuse full-time students from jury duty. Even if you live in a state that doesn't excuse students (e.g., California), you still have options. Request that your jury duty be rescheduled for your next break (winter, spring, summer). The call center can authorize this even if you have gone beyond the one-year postponement limit. They will say that it will be your final postponement. In most cases, missed student work can be made up, but not missed lessons and lectures. Some states will even exempt students enrolled in online classes. California trials often last ten or 20 days. Use this to your advantage. Lawyers assess potential jurors for each specific trial. During the process the judge will ask if anyone has any significant reason not to serve on a trial. Most excuses will not be accepted. Some, however, such as medical situations, will get you dismissed. If you have a medical procedure scheduled in the next two weeks, let the judge know. You may be excused to reschedule jury duty. Under some state law you will be considered to have fulfilled your duty. When you return to reschedule your jury service, they will hand you a piece of paper certifying that you have completed it. Be completely truthful. If they catch you lying about your circumstances, you could face a possible 20 days in jail.
Summary: Prove economic hardship. Request a change of date. Request a date in December. Try asking them to move the date up, not back. Use your student status as an excuse. Consider using a risky loophole if you're in California.

If you love him, you have probably shared your feelings and other personal information with him before. What settings worked best when you communicated this information. Was it over the phone or a text message? Was it during a romantic date night? Do you two prefer to have more casual, natural conversations? There is no right or wrong way to tell him that you love him. You are less likely to scare him if you use a method that he is receptive to. If you are nervous about talking to him in person, consider giving him a card or a letter that expresses how you feel. This will also give him time to digest what you have said and think about his feelings for you. If you are nervous about telling him or worried that you may clam up during the conversation, this is a good way to tell him. A card is really helpful if you do not know what to say. You can even choose a more humorous card to keep it light and still get your point across. You could also find a poem or song that says what you would like to say and rewrite it in your handwriting. Telling him face-to-face is the most romantic, yet nerve-racking way. Verbally expressing your true feelings forces you to be vulnerable. Your man may even be more attracted to you when you show him who you really are and how you really feel. If you go this route, practice saying "I love you" out loud and in front of a mirror. You could also make a video that tells him how you feel. You can make sure that you tell him everything that you want to say without getting too nervous. If you mess up, you can always make another video. Love is more than a feeling. Your words and actions should match. Before you tell him that you love, your actions should already be saying that you do. Do something nice like cook him is favorite meal or surprise him with tickets to a movie that he wanted to see. Be present during good and bad times. While it's easy to be supportive during happy times, you can really show your love when he's down in the dumps. Whether he's had a bad day at work or is dealing with a family health crisis, be his rock and show him you are on his side 24/7. Support his passions and dreams. From going for a master's degree to his love of mountain climbing, be his cheerleader. Research his hobbies or goals and bring additional insight to the table.
