Q: Sometimes when we feel threatened by prejudice or discrimination we can want to hide ourselves from the world so that no more harm can be done to us. Hiding and concealing your identity may be a self-protective measure, but also may increase stress and negative reactions to prejudice. Know who you are and accept yourself regardless of what you believe others think about you. Identify who you can trust with your personal information and be open around these individuals. Group solidarity can help people be more resilient against prejudice and protect against mental health issues. Any kind of group will do, but it will be especially helpful if you join a group that matches your uniqueness (such as a Women's group, LGBT group [Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender], African American group, Religion-based group, etc.). This can help you be emotionally resilient (less angry or depressed and more in control) in the face of prejudice. If you have experienced prejudice or discrimination, social support can be crucial in coming to terms with these issues and healing from them. Family support can help reduce the negative mental health effects of prejudice. Talk with your close family or friends about the injustice you have experienced. If you have experienced prejudice or discrimination in the past it is understandable that you would be wary of experiencing this again. However, expecting for others to be prejudiced against you, or thinking others will act a certain way can lead to increased stress. Don't expect to be rejected. Try to look at each situation and interaction as a new experience. Expecting that others with be prejudiced against you can become a prejudice in itself. Try not to generalize and label others as a certain way (including as prejudiced, judgmental, racist, etc.). Remember that if you pre-judge people and expect them to be prejudiced, then you may be the one with the bias. Some people may have negative ways of coping with prejudice, including aggressive behaviors or unnecessary confrontations. Instead of sacrificing your values to cope with prejudice, use ways of coping that help to release or process your emotions related to prejudice. Express yourself through: art, writing, dance, music, acting, or anything else that is creative. Being active in reducing prejudice may help give you a sense that you are making a difference. One option is to become an advocate or volunteer at an organization which aims to reduce prejudice and discrimination. If you can't volunteer for an organization, you can donate money or even supplies. Many homeless shelters will accept canned food, clothing, and other items.
A: Be open and accept yourself. Join a group. Get family support. Expect a positive or neutral outcome. Cope healthfully and creatively. Get involved.

Article: Sounds are a great way to experience an electronic device. However, pings, clicks and swipes do get irksome after a while and can intrude on the people around you. Everyone has their own music tastes as well, so even though blaring Michael Jackson is your norm at home, in an airport people want to stop-over or wait, in peace. One of the hardest thing's for a parent is to teach a child to behave in public spaces. However, it isn't an impossible task, and it's important to do so prior to visiting an airport, let alone a plane! Children are usually the main fault when it comes to proper composure and etiquette in an airport. Strange environments may be stressful or exciting for children however as a parent it is vastly important to insure that your child is where you can see them at all times. Inform your child if they are old enough about everything you are doing to keep them up to date with the trip. It saves the constant questioning and interrupting as to where and what they are doing next. Remember to reward the child for well-esteemed behavior and discipline them for noncooperation. You should never discipline your child in public places, let alone an airport. It does put others around you on edge and humiliates the child and can result in them having adverse social ramifications later in life. For example you can promise your child that when you get to the hotel or accommodation, they will be rewarded a treat if their behavior is constantly compliant throughout the ordeal. If they were not, let them know they won't be getting a treat and instead losing a privilege (No iPad or iPod for one day of the vacation). If you have an infant, insure you escape to quiet areas of an airport to settle the child down. There are usually family rooms that you can resort to rather than interrupting people around you with screaming and crying. Rather than dumping all your belongings down and taking up an entire seating arrangement, try to keep your belongings by your side and allow for people to sit. As the boarding time draws imminent, more people will arrive and the terminal will fill up rapidly. If at any point in your visit you get lost, you lose something or you're just totally bewildered; you can find a help desk to get some clarity. Remember to also notify an airport officer if you break something and there is dangerous glass or chemicals. If you or a child (if you have one) vomits or misses the bathroom, it's common decorum to tell someone so that they can clean up the mess. Don't think that you're judged or dwell on the humiliation, airport officials deal with this every-day. If you do miss your flight, it gets canceled or you can't find your gate and they are boarding, you need to be able to familiarize yourself with the airports uniform or the closest help desk to get the latest information so that you can dodge stress attacks. If you do see an individual participating in reckless behavior, causing a hazard to you or someones else, you need to be able to contact airport security. Security in an airport is one of the highest trained in the world. Note down the particular event and key thing's or clothing the person or group was wearing. It's important to describe people in a frank and honest way. Describing people in situations like criminal activity is understandably not a time for perfect political correctness; " They were of a Caucasian decent with long scraggly hair" is plausible. Sometimes in international airports you may get the occasional superstar that steals the attention of almost everyone. It's important to be calm and not act ridiculously by chasing, screaming or carrying on. If you do have the opportunity to see a personage in the flesh at the airport, it's important to treat them with respect. If they are someone you admire, it's fine to ask for a quick signature; but comprehend that their schedule is far more rigid than yours, and in most cases you may be on holidays but they are actually at work. They may have flown for many hours, they are probably tired and maybe a little not in the mood for their number one fan. Keep your distance when getting close to the entourage. It's more than likely that the paparazzi will be more focused on getting their million dollar snap than avoiding a collision with you. Hold yourself from running at the celebrity, their body guards are tarnished for their unsympathetic and in some cases, brutal defense techniques.

Article: The duplication is necessary to keep the original regions separate for one part and unify the other. Once you have this new object, you can remove the fill or give it a very transparent fill and a thicker border. Look at the image, showing the result of having done this with Northern Ireland and the entire island. Place the object showing the complete island is now in a lower layer (use the "End" button on your keyboard), so that the border only shows when it crosses the island. Create a shape that covers the shape of the stroke you wish to eliminate and then use the tool Path->Cut Path. This will divide the border into two pieces so that you can erase (type delete) the border you don't want.
