Article: Keep in mind that young children and infants may not exhibit these symptoms. Fever symptoms include: Sweating and shivering Headache Muscle aches Loss of appetite General weakness Hallucinations, confusion, irritability, convulsions, and dehydration may be present with high fevers. For babies younger than 3 months, taking the temperature rectally is most recommended. This is because their ear canals are too small to use an electronic ear thermometer in them. For kids between three months and four years, you can use either an electronic ear thermometer to take the temperature in the ear canal, or use a rectal thermometer to take the temperature rectally. You can also use any digital thermometer to take an underarm (axillary) temperature, though this is less accurate. For kids older than age 4 who are able to cooperate, you can use a digital thermometer to take the temperature orally. You will need to consider, however, if they must breathe through their mouths due to stuffy noses, because this can cause an inaccurate temperature reading. If this is the case, then you can also use an electronic ear thermometer, temporal artery thermometer, or use the digital thermometer to get an underarm (axillary) temperature. Similarly, for elderly adults, you'll need to consider any uncooperative behavior or medical conditions that could interfere with obtaining a temperature reading to determine which method you should use. If getting a rectal or oral temperature reading is impractical, then the tympanic method (using an electronic ear thermometer) or temporal method may be used.

Look for symptoms of a fever. Consider the age, health condition, and behavior of the child or elderly person.
Article: Place the larger, more vivid blossoms in the vase first. Then, place the smaller blooms or buds around them. This will give the arrangement a sense of stability. It will also first draw the viewer's eyes to the center of the arrangement. In a peony arrangement, place a larger red flower in the center. Surround it with pink and white blossoms either in full bloom or in a budding stage. Add some support to the bouquet so that it doesn't lean to one side. Use tree branches or twigs adjusted to the size of the arrangement to hold up more delicate flowers. Make sure smaller or flowers or buds are interspersed throughout the larger ones to prevent a sense of lopsidedness. For example, intersperse pink tulips, white peonies, irises, and pink delphiniums so that each color is evenly distributed throughout the arrangement. Vary the blossoms in height and color evenly throughout the arrangement. Tuck smaller flowers or buds around the edges. Keep taller plants toward the center and top. For example, arrange aster, blue veronica, blue lisianthus, and larkspur as the base colors. Add accents to the color scheme with red dahlias and "Black Prince" snapdragons inserted between the lighter hues. Do this constantly as you place the flowers inside it. Rotation will ensure you don't neglect any one area and give an even hand to the entire bouquet. When you're satisfied with the appearance of the bouquet, tie the stems together right at the waterline. This will pack the flowers tightly together and force them to support one another. Use a clear elastic band to avoid detracting attention from the flowers. Use twine for a more rustic appearance. Use ribbon to add a decorative touch to a bridal bouquet. Like all organic material, dead flowers emit methane (a greenhouse gas 24 times as powerful as CO2) when taken to the landfill. Get crafty by reusing your flowers as they begin to wilt and die. Use your new creations as home decor or as unique gifts. If you have a compost heap or a municipal composting program, you can reuse your flowers by turning them into organic fertilizer. Just make sure your flowers were not treated with chemicals or grown with genetically modified seeds beforehand.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Create a focal point. Create balance. Create variety. Rotate the vase. Tie it all together. Reuse dead flowers.
Article: If you have an emotional support dog and you are attempting to rent an apartment or house, you should tell potential landlords about it. You do not need to disclose the animal's existence when you are applying for housing but you should discuss it when you have been offered the housing. You can either tell your landlord about your need in person or in a letter. Legally, the landlord has to make a reasonable accommodation for those with a disability. This includes accommodating a prescribed emotional service animal even if the house or apartment usually excludes pets. If your landlord asks for documentation of your disability and your need for a support animal, show them the letter you have gotten from your mental health professional. The landlord has the right to ask for certification that you have a disability, that an animal can help with the condition, and that your animal does indeed help with your condition. Your landlord does not have the right to ask about your specific mental health diagnosis. A letter from your mental health professional should simply state that you have a mental health issue that requires animal support. There are a variety of rules around housing and emotional support animals. Your landlord may not be aware of all of these rules, so gently inform them. In order to educate your landlord about the rules surrounding emotional support animals you will need to know them yourself. Review federal, state, and local regulations relating to emotional support animals, disability, and housing. The Fair Housing Act is the central US federal law that protects against discrimination in housing. Specifically, it protects those that use assistance animals against discrimination.
