Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know that if you're obese, you're at higher risk. Be aware that your sex plays a role, too. Think about your lifestyle and recent activities. Know that rheumatoid arthritis or wrist arthritis also is a factor. Consider your family history. Take bone spurs into account as well. Consider your posture.

Answer: Obesity can predispose people to developing a pinched nerve the excess weight can add pressure to different parts of your body. Women are at greater risk for a pinched nerve because they are more likely to develop a syndrome called carpal tunnel, a condition of numbness and tingling sensation in the thumb, middle and index finger. This doesn't affect the back, but it does wreak havoc on the hands and arms. When women become pregnant and gain a large amount of weight, they are more like to get a pinched nerve. Pinched nerves may also be the result of performing repetitive or strenuous activities. Think about your hobbies, daily activities, and any recent activities that might have contributed to your pinched nerve. For example, a repetitive activity like knitting or typing may lead to a pinched nerve in your wrist. Likewise, a strenuous physical activity like running may lead to a pinched nerve in your hip or back. If you have rheumatoid arthritis or wrist arthritis, then this also increases your risk of developing a pinched nerve. If you have arthritis, be sure to start treatment now to decrease your chances of developing a pinched nerve. If a family member has a history of pinched nerves, then you're at higher risk of getting them. Some people are predisposed to having a pinched nerve because one of their family members or relatives has a history of it. Talk to your family Does anyone else suffer from having a pinched nerve? Do they know anyone, even distantly related, who does? If conditions that lead to obesity or arthritis run in your family, you're more likely to get a pinched nerve as a symptom of these health issues. This condition makes your spine hard and lose its flexibility. This, in turn, makes the space for your nerves in the spinal cord narrower, eventually causing a pinched nerve in the back. Bone spurs generally form where bones meet that is, your joints. But they can form where the bones meet in your spine, too. Technically, they're called osteophytes and they're little bony projections that stick out along the edges of bones. Not great for your nerves at all! Poor posture can increase your risk of having a pinched nerve. If you don't sit or stand correctly, your back may get out of alignment and lead to a pinched nerve. If you think your posture may be your back pain culprit, consider reading How to Improve Your Posture or How to Improve Posture While Sleeping.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Collect your materials. Trace a circle on a piece of brown construction paper using an empty tuna can. Paint the tuna can and oatmeal container. Roll the clay into a long, thin string and place it on the oatmeal container. Glue the string into place around the toothpicks. Glue the tuna can upside-down onto the top of the oatmeal container. Place a transparency cylinder on top of the tuna can. Cut out the brown construction paper to make roof for the lighthouse. Add some embellishments like grass and rocks.

Answer: This project requires brown, black, and white acrylic paint (and other colors, if you wish), an empty tuna can, an empty cylindrical oatmeal container, toothpicks, string, a transparency sheet, brown construction paper, a pencil, and some small rocks and pieces of grass (artificial grass, if you wish). Wash the can and dry it so it doesn't drip on the paper. Place the can on the paper and trace around its perimeter. Set the can and paper aside. Paint the tuna can completely white. Paint the oatmeal container white, too, including its bottom. The oatmeal container will represent the main body of the lighthouse, so use other colors to paint windows and a door on it. You could also paint diagonal stripes around the oatmeal container if you wish. Put down newspaper when painting. Paint in a well-ventilated area. After painting them, set the tuna can and oatmeal container aside to dry. Press the clay into the top edge of the oatmeal container, then stick the toothpicks in it. Place the toothpicks at equal distances from one another. The toothpicks should come straight up and out of the clay. You could roll the clay between your hands or against a flat surface to shape it into a string. Cut two pieces of string just slightly longer than the circumference of the oatmeal container. At the top of each toothpick, apply a small dab of glue with your glue gun, then press one string into the glue. Apply glue to the mid-points of each toothpick and stretch the second string along this second set of points. Apply glue along the top edge of the tuna can, then turn it upside-down and press it gently onto the oatmeal container. The tuna can will be inside the ring of toothpicks, so be careful not to bump them. The length of time required for the glue to dry depends on the type of glue you're using. Consult manufacturer directions for more information. Cut a piece from your transparency sheet that is 2 inches (5.1cm) wide and just slightly shorter than the circumference of the tuna can. Tape the two ends of the transparency piece together so that it forms a cylinder and apply a thin line of glue along one edge. Center the glued edge over the tuna can and press it down gently. A transparency cylinder is a rolled-up cylinder made of a transparency sheet. The purpose of the transparency cylinder is to lend the lighthouse model a realistic look and provide a base for the model's roof. If you do not have a transparency sheet to make a transparency cylinder, get one from your local arts and crafts store. Cut out the circle you drew earlier. Make a single cut in the circle from one edge directly toward its center. Gently pull the two sides of the cut toward each other so that they overlap slightly, making a shallow cone. Apply a piece of tape to the underside of the cone so that the paper retains this shape, then apply a few dabs of glue to the top edge of the transparency cylinder and set the brown paper cone on it. Place the oatmeal container on a piece of plywood and arrange a few small pebbles and some loose grass around its base. If you have small animal figurines, you could incorporate them into the scene, too. You could also paint the wooden base the lighthouse is standing on to give it the appearance of dirt or create a winding path.
