INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Communicating with your child is important. You want your child to feel comfortable talking to you about social media and their experiences on it, along with feeling like they can come to you if they has a problem. Open the lines of communication so your child will feel comfortable coming to you about any problems. Explain to your child about being safe on social media. Tell them not to give out personal details, like their full name, the name of their school, their phone number or their address. Help them understand the importance of not posting inappropriate pictures or updates. Make sure to have a discussion about the dangers of cyber predators and why they should never meet people they only know online in person. Talk to your child about what rules you have concerning social media. These rules can include anything you are concerned about. Examples include: Not allowing your child to post about where they are. Not allowing your child to post any personal details. Limiting the amount or kinds of photos your child posts. Setting an amount of time your child can spend on social media. Restricting which social media sites your child can become a member of. Only allowing your child to follow or friend people they know in person, like classmates or family members. Sharing their passwords for all accounts with you. You don't just need to worry about predators finding your child. You need to discuss with your child how to keep themselves safe from themselves. Posting embarrassing, questionable, or inappropriate pictures can cause potential colleges and employers to reject them. Posting status updates that are rude, offensive, or questionable can also come back to haunt them later. Make sure to discuss with your child that once they put something on social media, it is out in the world and difficult to remove or take back. Speak with your child openly about social media and encourage a trusting environment. Ask your child to talk to you about their social media usage and anything that makes them uncomfortable. If they make a mistake, turn it into a teaching moment instead of enacting a harsh punishment.

SUMMARY: Have a conversation about social media safety. Set rules for your child. Discuss the repercussions of social media.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The water will soak down into the shaft, causing rust or rot. It could also cause the glue holding the bristles to loosen. It is safe to store brushes upright once they are completely dry. The intense heat from the hairdryer or flatiron will ruin the fiberseven if the fibers are natural, such as sable or camelhair. The brushes are a makeup brush are mush more fragile than the hair on your head. If you dry your brushes in an enclosed area, such as the bathroom, the bristles may not get enough air-flow, which might cause mildew. This will result in musty-smelling bristles. Ew! When your brushes are dry, store them either upright in a cup, or lay them down on their side. Do not store them pointing down, or the bristles will get crooked. If you want to carry your brushes in a bag, store them flat in a brush case or bag dedicated to your brushes. Before you set your makeup brush out to dry, or even between washes, disinfect your brush with a vinegar-water solution. Don't worry, the strong, vinegar smell will disappear once the bristles dry. Fill a small bowl or cup with two parts water and one part vinegar. Swirl your brush in the solution, but avoid wetting the part where the bristles meet the handle. Rinse the brush with clean water and set it out to dry.

SUMMARY: Do not store brushes upright while drying them. Do not use a hairdryer or flatiron on your brush. Dry your brushes in a well-ventilated area. Store your brushes properly. Consider disinfecting your brush.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This is reverse polarity. As you are welding, keep your electrode extended between " and 3/8" from the contact tube. This will help make for a clean, regular weld. Use carbon dioxide as an economical choice to provide deeper penetration on steel. This will be too hot for thin metals though. Use argon for aluminum welding, and a mix of argon (75%) and carbon dioxide (25%) for thinner steel. The angle should not exceed 10 degrees in either technique. Keep the wire at the front edge of your weld pool. This will give you greater control over your weld. Drag welding pulls the bead along with the tip. This will give you a deeper penetration and a narrower bead. Push welding pushes the bead with the tip. This will give you a wider bead. Use the welder to place material directly into the joint. You can use a back and forth method to fill large gaps. For flat joints, hold the gun at a 90 angle. You must lower the gun angle slightly to keep the filler from sagging. Keep the same push or pull angle as normal. Use a back-and-forth weave motion to fill large gaps. Keep the amperage the same as a flat weld. You may need to use a slightly smaller diameter wire to keep the weld pool from getting too big. For thin materials, start at the top and move the pool down with gravity. This keeps the arc from penetrating the material. For thicker metals, start at the base and work up. This will help increase penetration. You may want to lower the amperage by around 10-15% to help fight gravity. Use standard welding techniques, but increase your travel speed. This will help prevent filler from falling out of the joint. You may need to increase your gas flow rate. Keep your nozzle clean, as spatter will build up faster when welding overhead. Once you are done with the weld process, grind off any excess filler. If the weld is defective, grind it down and re-weld the joint.

SUMMARY:
Set the welding machine polarity to DCEP. Keep a consistent electrode length. Use the proper shielding gas. Weld a joint using a drag or push welding technique. Make a flat weld. Make a horizontal weld. Make a vertical weld. Make an overhead weld. Finish the weld.
