In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Women are more vulnerable to urinary tract infections due to their anatomy. The urethra is a lot shorter and closer to the anal region, making it easy for bacteria to travel from the stool into the urinary tract. Postmenopausal and pregnant women are at even higher risk. Here's why: After menopause, a loss of estrogen takes place which can decrease the amount of lubrication in the vagina. Dryness in the genital area can increase the risk of UTIs. Pregnancy causes hormonal changes that affect the urinary tract, which can cause infection. Also, the uterus grows during pregnancy, which compresses the bladder and makes it harder to empty the bladder completely. Retained urine in the bladder can be a source of infection. Women who have an active sex life are prone to developing this condition. Frequent intercourse will increase the chances of contracting a urinary tract infection. You can reduce your risk of developing UTIs by urinating and showering right after having sex. During sex, bacteria from the area around your anus and genitals can get into your urethra and spread into your bladder. Urinating and washing the area right away can help flush out these bacteria. If you have recurring UTIs and sex seems to be the issue, you can get on an antibiotic to take immediately before and/or after having sex. See your doctor to discuss this issue. Certain birth control methods, such as using the diaphragm, can increase the risk of infection. Germs and bacteria can attach to the surface of the diaphragm, facilitating the access to the urinary tract. Spermicides and condoms can create skin irritation that increases the risk of having bacteria enter the bladder. Diaphragms can also create pressure in the bladder, making it harder to urinate. Children born with an abnormally shaped urinary tract will be prone to infection. Urine will not leave the body as usual, creating a great culture environment for bacteria. Anything that obstructs emptying the bladder can be a risk factor for developing a UTI. The presence of kidney stones, an enlarged prostate, and certain forms of cancer can make it difficult to urinate. Kidney stones are actually crystals that form in the kidney. Eventually, these crystals can move down the ureters (the tubes connecting your kidneys to your bladder), blocking the urine passageway. This condition can cause severe pain and difficulty urinating. If you think you may have a kidney stone, see your doctor to be sure. An enlarged prostate can affect the urethra. The prostate and the urethra are close to each other, so when the prostate becomes enlarged, it puts pressure on the urethra. This makes the exit hole for the urine smaller, making it hard to urinate. Your doctor can examine you and determine if you have an enlarged prostate. A suppressed immune system will not be able to fight against pathogens. Diabetes or other diseases in which the immune system becomes weak will increase the chances of infection. Not consuming the right amount of fluids (2 litres (8.5c) per day) will cause low urination frequency. The amount of bacteria inside the urinary tract will increase, making it easier to get infected. The urine that you do have stays in your system because so little accumulates. Drinking plenty of water is not only advisable when you have a UTI, but it's smart when you don't, too!
Summary: Recognize that your gender plays a role. Know that your sex life is a factor. Acknowledge that contraception can be a cause. Be aware that congenital issues are sometimes the culprit. Pay attention to any urinary tract blockages. Know that a weak immune system can also be a cause. Know that dehydration is a factor, too.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you do not have one, you can use a large skillet with a long handle and deep sides. Make sure everything is at the proper temperature and check that there are matches or a lighter near by. For fruit dishes, use a preheated shallow pan. For meat dishes, use a cast iron or enamel roasting pan. Plate and serve your dish immediately after the flames die down. No cooling time is needed, meaning nothing will stand between you and your delicious meal.
Summary: Use a flambe pan. Serve your impressed guests!

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: For this step, you'll need twelve pieces of wood that are cut to 240 mm and six pieces of wood cut to 248 mm, all about 1 inch wide and 1/4 inch for the height. Use a handsaw to cut the pieces. Make sure that the width and height of all 18 pieces of wood are exactly the same. Try to purchase wood sticks that are already pre-cut to be 1 inch wide and 1/4 inch high. That way you'll only need to worry about cutting the length. You'll need to cut 12 pieces at 50 mm each, with the same other dimensions as the other pieces (1 inch wide and 1/4 inch high). In order to removed the jagged edges left from cutting the wood, you'll need to lightly sand the edges with some sandpaper. To achieve the beautiful two-tone look, you'll need to stain half of the pieces of wood (of all sizes). So, separate each size of the wood pieces into two sections and apply wood stain to one group. Choose any wood stain color you like, as long as it contrasts with the existing wood color. Apply the stain generously and wipe off the excess with a paper towel or rag. You need to cover the surface area of both sides and the ends, but don't worry about getting all of the 1/4 inch side because these sides will be glued together. Let the stain dry completely (at least 4 hours) until you move on to the next step. Take the six pieces of wood that were cut to 248 mm and line them up. Each side of the jewelry box will be made out of three of the six pieces. Use wood glue to glue the pieces together lengthwise into two three-piece sections, making sure you alternate between the stained and unstained pieces to achieve the two-tone look. Wipe off any excess glue that leaks up between the cracks. Make sure the ends are lined up perfectly and then let the glue dry. You can clamp the pieces into place for a more secure, tight seal if you would like. To avoid gluing the wood to whatever surface you're working on, it might be helpful to lay down a piece of clear Saran wrap to work on. Alternating between stained and unstained pieces, line up six of the 240 mm pieces of wood on the Saran wrap to make the base. Glue the pieces together, but instead of lining up the ends, alternate them by 1/4 inch (so that the end pieces will fit inside the gaps). Line up the short end pieces that you cut (the 50 mm pieces), alternating stained and unstained pieces, on each end of the base. Each end will be six pieces long. Because of how you off-set the edges of the base, one piece will sit on the table and be flush with the base, while the next piece will sit on top of the base, and so on. Glue the sides of the jewelry box to the frame that you've made (out of the base and the ends). Let the frame dry fully before you move on. You can use some pieces of wood cut to fit the inside of the box to help the frame maintain its shape while it's drying. Apply a small coat of Vaseline to the off-set end pieces (the 50 mm pieces) to keep the lid from sticking to the frame with the excess glue when you glue it together. Glue the remaining six 240 mm pieces of wood to each other in place on top of the frame. As before, make sure to alternate between stained and unstained pieces. The pieces will fit into the existing slots made by the alternating off-set end pieces. Once all pieces are in place, you will have a perfect rectangular box. To help the jewelry box dry in the right shape, clamp the box on two sides with two hand clamps. Once the glue is dry, your jewelry box is finished.
Summary:
Measure and cut the wood for the top, bottom, and sides of the jewelry box. Measure and cut the wood for the ends of the jewelry box. Sand the cut edges. Stain the wood. Make the sides. Make the base. Make the ends. Attach the sides. Use Vaseline to keep the lid from sticking. Make the top lid. Clamp the box to dry.
