Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Limit your intake of saturated fats. Decrease your sugar consumption. Try to avoid burned, charred, or fried meats. Limit your intake of alcohol.

Answer: Although there are many foods that you should eat more often to help prevent colon polyps, there are foods that you should limit or avoid. Saturated fats, unlike omega-3 fats, have been shown to increase your risk for the formation of colon polyps and colon cancer. One study in particular found that for every additional 100 grams of red meat that you consume (which is higher in saturated fat) your risk for colon cancer increases by 14%. Limit meats: fatty cuts of beef, salami, hot dogs, bacon, sausage and deli meat. These are highly processed and high in saturated fat. If you do choose to have these foods occasionally, stick to the appropriate portion of 3 to 4 oz total per serving. You may not realize that another group of foods that has been linked to colon polyps and colon cancer are sugary, sweetened foods. Limit these in your diet. The sugar from sweetened foods increase your glucose levels. Studies have shown that with increased glucose levels, your risk for the formation of colon cancer increases as well. Foods that are high in sugar and that should be limited include: sweetened beverages, candy, cookies, cakes, pies, ice cream, sugary cereals, pastries and fruit juices. If you do choose to have these foods, make sure they are small portions and something you only eat occasionally - not on a regular basis. In addition to avoiding or limiting certain foods, you should also take care of how you prepare certain foods. Charring or burning foods when you cook them may increase your risk of colon cancer. When you cook foods, especially over a grill, you can char or burn them. Although this may taste good, this charring creates carcinogenic substances in the food which have been associated with higher rates of colon cancer. If you are grilling foods try to avoid foods from becoming overly charred. When eating, avoid the blackened bits or areas that are charred. Remove with a fork and knife so they are completely removed from your serving. Another trick is to grill or cook foods over aluminum foil. This helps prevent foods from becoming too charred or burned. In addition to sweetened beverages, alcoholic beverages have also been linked to the formation of colon polyps. You should limit your overall intake of alcoholic beverages. Studies have shown that regular consumption of alcohol (more than the recommended limit of one to two glasses daily) is associated with increased risk of colon polyp formation. In addition, those people who have had a history of colon polyps are at an increased risk for those polyps becoming cancerous with more excessive intake of alcoholic beverages. Try to limit how much alcohol you consume. Women shouldn't consume more than one drink daily and men should limit their intake to two drinks or less per day.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose the right time. Pick an appropriate place.

Answer: Avoid holidays and special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries at all costs. Do you really want your ex remembering your insensitivity every time that day rolls around? No you don't. Statistics show that most students break up during summer break. For everyone else, Monday seems to be the most popular day of the week for breaking up. The less public, the better. Don't do it in a place where the person on the receiving end isn't going to feel especially vulnerable. Avoid these break up locations at all costs: The office. At a wedding. In a car. At school. In a restaurant or nightclub.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use toner to achieve the silver look you desire. Put on new gloves and separate the hair back into four to six sections. Apply the dye evenly throughout the hair. Rinse, wash, and condition your hair.

Answer: White and purple toner works a bit like bleach, except it cancels out any orangery or yellow tones in your hair, and gives it a beautiful silvery tone. You can buy toner from a beauty supply store, or you can probably find it at stores like Hot Topic or your local pharmacy. Remember, you want to stay sanitary and keep your hands from getting stained with dye. Do not wear the same pair of latex gloves you used to do the bleaching with. Using a bottle for efficiency, start at the ends and work your way up. You'll want to make sure each section is covered from root to tip. Also apply the dye quickly, as freshly bleached hair often takes color very fast. Keep an eye on the color constantly and rinse your hair when the desired hue is achieved, otherwise you could end up with purple strands. If you miss a spot, that area will appear pale yellow while the rest looks silver, so try to be thorough. Once your hair is the silver color that you wanted, rinse your hair thoroughly with cold water to get the excess dye out. Then wash it with a color-safe shampoo and condition it with a color-safe conditioner to keep the silver color from washing out. Color-safe shampoos and conditioners can be bought at your local pharmacy.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Assess your situation and preferences. Work with a private agency for a domestic adoption. Hire an adoption lawyer for a private placement. Work with the state to adopt a foster child. Find an agency that specializes in international adoptions.

Answer:
You have many options, and the type of child you want will drive who you work with during the adoption process. Spend some time considering the following: Do you want to adopt a child in the U.S.? This is called a domestic adoption. However, you might have to wait a long time for a child to become available. Do you want to adopt a child internationally? You might have a better chance at finding a child, but international adoptions can be complicated and more expensive. Do you want a baby, or are you open to adopting an older child? Would you like the child to be the same race, ethnicity, or religion as you? You might need to wait longer, depending on your preferences. Check your phone book or perform an Internet search to find private agencies. Generally, private agencies provide full service, including adoption education, counseling, home studies, and post-adoption services. Adopting a child will cost you around $4,000-30,000. Make sure the agency is properly licensed. Call the Department of Social Services (DSS), Children's Division, at 573-751-4954. Also check with the Missouri State's Attorney General's Office to see if the agency has been sued. Instead of working with an agency, you can hire a lawyer. They can search for a child to adopt by contacting doctors, advertising in the newspaper, or helping you create a website. Make sure the lawyer specializes in adoption and not in another field. Obtain a referral from the Missouri bar association by calling 573-636-3635 or visiting www.mobar.org. Discuss fees ahead of time. Lawyers charge different amounts depending on their experience and the complexity of the adoption. Generally, they charge $5,000-40,000. Missouri's Department of Social Services handles the adoption process. There are about 2,000 foster children in Missouri awaiting adoption. You can either become a foster parent first or adopt the child directly. Some foster children are special needs, but don't let that deter you from considering them. You can get money from the state, around $200-300 a month. Many people adopt from China, Eastern Europe, or Latin America. You should find an agency approved for Hague intercountry adoptions. International adoptions are complicated, so thoroughly research the adoption agency. International adoptions can cost up to $35,000. Ask for three or more referrals from people who have adopted through the agency and be sure to call them. Ask the referrals how complicated the process was. Did the parents feel like they had sufficient support? Did someone from the agency travel with them to the foreign country? Find out if there were hidden expenses or whether everything cost about what they expected.
