Write an article based on this "Determine if the pigeon is domesticated or wild. Look for signs of injury or weakness. Feed and water the pigeon. Take the pigeon to a veterinarian. Locate the owner's contact information."
article: This is rather easily done by looking at the pigeon's legs. Pigeons raised in captivity and sold for racing and show purposes will have a metal band around one of their legs. This metal band will have information on it, and you'll need to catch the pigeon in order to read this info. Sometimes racing pigeons are just taking a break, and simply need to rest awhile before moving on. If the pigeon looks like it's injured, or too weak to protect itself, you will need to catch it to take care of it. Under the circumstances the pigeon shouldn't put up much of a fight and should be pretty easy to pick up. Place the pigeon in a basket, cage, large box or pet carrier. If the pigeon is injured, but is also trying to get away, you can try getting close enough to throw a blanket or towel over the pigeon while it's on the ground, then pick up the towel or blanket and carefully remove the pigeon. Make sure the box, basket, carrier or cage is lined with a towel, blanket or paper towels. If the pigeon is injured it will need to be kept warm until you can get it help. If the pigeon looks healthy you can leave it where it is, but you may want to consider putting out a bowl of water and some food (wheat, corn, small grains or fine seeds) for it to snack on while it takes a break. If the pigeon is injured or weak, provide it the same type of food and a bowl of water inside the basket, cage, carrier or box. If the pigeon is too weak to stand, or is having trouble with balance, do not give it water right away. The water bowl would be more a hazard than a help at this point. If the pigeon is gasping, has tremors or seizures, is bleeding or throwing up, you must take the pigeon to a vet right away. The vet's office will be able to help you determine what to do with the bird after, including helping you read the tag and contacting the owner. If the pigeon is a racing pigeon, it most likely has a leg band from the American Racing Pigeon Union (ARPU). If this is the case, the number on the leg band will start with the letters "AU". The next two numbers represent the year the pigeon was hatched and banded. The next three letters represent the specific pigeon club to which the owner belongs. And the final four numbers is the pigeon's personal identification number with their club. Using the information found on the leg band, you can use the ARPU's searchable band listing on their website to find the owner's contact information. If the number on the leg band starts with a "CU" the bird is registered with the Canadian Racing Pigeon Union (CRPU). You can use the lost bird form on their website to list your contact information and information about the pigeon and the CRPU will assist you in locating it's owner. If the number on the leg band starts with "IF" the bird is registered through the International Federation - American Homing Pigeon Fanciers Inc. You can use their IF Band Listing PDF documents to look up the owner's contact information. If the number on the leg band starts with "NPA" the bird is registered with the National Pigeon Association. Send an email to secretary@npausa.com to let them know you've found the pigeon and they'll assist you with contacting the owner. If the number on the leg band starts with "IPB" send an email to foyspigeon@zoominternet.net or call 1-877-355-7727 to report the pigeon you found. If the number on the leg band starts with "ADA" the pigeon is registered with the American Dove Association (ADA). Send an email to secretary@doveline.com to inform them of the pigeon you found and they'll help you with contacting the owner. If the number on the leg band starts with "NBRC" it is registered with the National Birmingham Roller Club. You can use the online form on their website to send them all the relevant information and they'll help you locate the owner.

Write an article based on this "Apply castor oil. Use a little petroleum jelly. Massage your eyelids. Try green tea. Make some lemon olive oil. Eat right. Create a coconut oil and lavender essential oil concoction."
article: Some people have had good luck with applying castor oil, though it's not scientifically proven. Wash around your eyes first. Use a cotton swab to apply a small amount of castor oil to your eyes. Brush it from the bottom of the eyelids to the tips two to three times a week. Like castor oil, some people have used petroleum jelly to grow out their eyelashes. You can also use a petroleum jelly replacement product. Apply petroleum jelly as you would mascara, brushing it up from the roots. Clean off a wand first. You can apply petroleum jelly nightly. That is, lightly rub your eyelids near your eyelashes. Some people claim that this process can help stimulate your hair follicles, encouraging your eyelashes to grow. Brew green tea in hot water for 1-2 minutes. Let the water cool. Use a small, clean brush to apply it to your eyelids. This treatment is not scientifically proven either, but it certainly doesn't hurt. Peel the rinds off of clean lemons. Let them sit in olive oil for a couple of days. This mixture will likely moisturize and strengthen eyelashes, and some people say it does lengthen eyelashes as well. Apply the oil as you did the castor oil. Place a drop on a cotton swab, and brush it up from the roots. Eyelashes, like your hair and nails, need nutrients to grow. Balance your meals with protein, fruits and vegetables, and whole grains. Some people have found these oils beneficial. Mix 1/2 a teaspoon of coconut oil with a few drops of lavender essential oil. Apply as you would the other oils, brushing a small amount up from the roots.

Attach the long wood pieces to make the sides. Decorate the outside with tissue paper. Hang your lanterns around your house for a festive, traditional look."

Moon Festival decorations don't need to be over the top, but the one thing you can't do without are lanterns. Moon Festival lanterns are bright, festive, and often shaped like animals or interesting geometric designs, but you can make your own simple rectangular lanterns. Creating lanterns as a family in the days beforehand is a great way to foster the spirit of togetherness that this holiday is all about. Making lanterns is an especially great activity for kids, who can design their own and carry it around on the night of the celebration! Start with 3 square balsa wood dowels that are 36 by 18 by 18 inches (91.44 0.32 0.32cm). Use scissors to cut them into smaller pieces as follows: 4 lengths of 10in (25cm) 8 lengths of 5in (13cm) 2 lengths of 7in (18cm). Use electrical tape to attach the 5in (13cm) pieces together, creating 2 squares. These will be the top and bottom of the lantern. To make the base more stable, tape your two 7in (18cm) strips of wood in a cross in one of the squares. Use double-sided tape to attach a tealight (either a candle or electric) at the intersection of the cross. Tape the 10in (25cm) pieces vertically from each corner of the base to create the outer shell of the lantern. Then, tape on the top square. Spread out a 20in 20in (51cm 51cm) sheet of tissue paper and use a brush to coat it in a thin layer of glue. Wrap it around the lantern frame, then create a wire handle so you can carry it or hang it around your house. If you want to decorate your lantern with Chinese characters or drawings, do so before you paint the glue on the tissue paper. Repeat this process to make at least 5-6 lanterns. Place them around your house and outside to light up the night with a soft glow. You can also let kids carry them around, but be careful if you used candles. You may want to use electric tealights to make a few kid-friendly lanterns, and use candles in the ones that you plan to hang up out of their reach.
