Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Stimulate away. Decrease the brain's blood flow. Combine caffeine with a methylphenidate medication.

Answer: Caffeine is a stimulant, just like many of the prescription medications those with ADHD use to tame their symptoms. Because of caffeine's effect on the brain, when someone consumes it, the levels of a key brain chemical (dopamine) are increased. Someone with ADHD who consumes caffeine is better able to process information, and will feel more calm and focused. Excess intake may still cause the stimulant side effects however, which may include anxiety. The effectiveness of caffeine for ADHD depends on the dosage. Moderate doses between 200-300 mg can lead to increased energy, enhanced concentration, and boost emotional well-being. High doses, however, of greater than 400 mg can cause you to feel jittery and nervousness. No, this one is not mis-categorized. Yes, it does say decrease the brain's blood flow. Apparently in those with ADHD, this is a good thing. This is the exact effect ADHD medications like Ritalin have. The blood flow affects how well the person processes information and pays attention. Such a regimen can produce a high level of success at controlling ADHD. Studies have shown that when used in conjunction with each other, at low doses, the two treatments compliment each other very well. In combination with higher levels of caffeine, however, the prescription proved to be the equivalent of no medication at all.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Sell it through a consignment store. Advertise your gown online. Use local classifieds. Make your ad stand out.

Answer: By leaving the actual sale to professionals, you increase your chances of successfully selling the dress to someone. The downside to using consignment stores, however, is that half of the money you make from selling the dress goes to them. If increasing the odds of selling the dress are more important to you than making money, consignment stores are the way to go. Wedding dresses come and go out of fashion fairly quickly. To increase your chances even further, try to keep your dress in excellent condition and sell it within 2 1/2 years of when you first bought it. A used gown that is in great condition can expect to make a little more than half of what you originally paid for it. There are many websites like StillWhite.com, NearlyNewlywed.com, and PreOwnedWeddingDresses.com which are resources specifically designed to help you sell your wedding dress online. These sites allow users to either sell their dresses or search for a used dress with certain specifications and finding what dresses most resemble what they are looking for. Instead of selling your wedding gown online, you could use local based advertising like Craigslist to sell it around town instead. There may not be anyone in your area who wants to buy your specific wedding gown, though, so this option is not as promising as using online wedding gown sites that will have larger audiences. The sheer number of used wedding dresses being sold online and in classified ads makes it difficult to sell your own. Your ad should grab a buyer's attention, hold their interest, and make them want to buy it. Emphasize the excellent condition of your dress and how much you loved it on your day. If you purchased it from a well known designer, be sure to use their name in your ad. Be fair when setting your price. No matter how appealing your ad is, no one will buy your dress if the price is too high. Browse the market to see how much similar dresses are selling for and set your price accordingly.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Brush off the droppings to remove anything that will come off easily. Rub the stain using mild, plain household soap. Rinse off well with clean water. Repeat the rub and rinse process until the bird droppings are removed.

Answer: Use a household small dustpan brush to do this. Dampen the bar of soap and rub it over the stain to cover. Leave the soap that has been rubbed on for half an hour.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make eye contact. Give the speaker your full attention. Encourage the speaker with body language. Listen actively to express your interest. Don't expect them to open up immediately.

Answer:
Eye contact is important when you are listening. If you give your friend the impression you aren't interested and are distracted, they may never open up to you again. When it comes to being a good listener, it's important for you to have eye contact with the other person. When someone is talking to you, focus directly on their eyes so that they will know with certainty that you are absorbing every single word. Even if the topic is not interesting to you, at least respect and truly listen to what the speaker has to say. Don't stare off in space. Focus your eyes, ears and your thoughts only on him/her and become a good listener. Don't concentrate on thinking about what you will say next, but instead, focus fully on what the other person is saying. (Remember that it's about the person, not you.) If you want to be a good listener, then it's important for you to create a conducive physical and mental space. Remove all distractions and confer all of your attention to the person who has something to say to you. Turn off communication devices (including cell phones) and arrange to talk in a place with no distractions. Once you are face-to-face, quiet your mind and pay attention to what the other person is telling.Show them that you are helpful. Pick a place that is free of distractions or other people who might grab your attention. If you go to a coffee shop, make sure you're focused on the person who is speaking, not the interesting characters who walk in and out of the door. If you're talking in a public place like a restaurant or a cafe, avoid sitting near a television that's on. Even if you're determined to give the person all of your attention, it can be tempting to take a quick look at the television, especially if your favorite team is playing. Nodding your head will indicate that you understand what the speaker is saying, and will encourage them to continue. Adopting body postures, positions and movements that are similar to the speaker (mirroring) will enable the speaker to relax and open up more. Try looking straight into their eyes. Not only does this show you are listening, but it shows you take real interest in what they are saying. Another way to have encouraging body language is to turn your body toward the speaker. If you're turned away from the speaker, then it may look like you're itching to leave. If you cross your legs, for example, cross your leg toward the speaker instead of away. Don't cross your arms over your chest, either. This will make you appear standoffish or skeptical even if you don't actually feel that way. Active listening involves the entire body and face both yours and that of the speaker. You can be quiet while still making it clear that you are hanging on to every word that the speaker is telling you. Here's how you can make the most of the situation by being an active listener: Your words: Though you don't have to say, "Mmhmm," "I see," or "Right," every five seconds or it will begin to get annoying, you can throw in an encouraging phrase here and there to show that you're paying attention.If that person whom you are talking to really means something to you,then you will surely pay attention and help them sort out their problem if there is any. Your expression: Look interested and meet the gaze of the speaker from time to time. Do not overwhelm the speaker by staring intently, but do reflect friendliness and openness to what you are listening to. Read between the lines: Always be alert for things that have been left unsaid and for cues that can help you gauge the speaker's true feelings. Watch the facial and body expressions of the "teller" to try to gather all information you can, not just from the words. Imagine what kind of state of mind would have made you acquire such expressions, body language and volume. Speak at approximately the same energy level as the other person. This way, they will know that the message is getting through and that there is no need to repeat. Be patient and willing to just listen, without giving any advice. Try to repeat what the other person is saying to confirm the exact meaning. Sometimes words can mean two different things. The best way to confirm and avoid misunderstanding between the conversationalists is to repeat what the other person is saying so that the other person knows you were listening and both of you have the same idea. Consider their circumstances. If they are a sensitive person, don't give them "tough love."
