INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You have your own opinions and ideas, and it's time to start sharing them with the rest of the world. Hiding behind popular opinion is a good way to fit in, but it won't make you remarkable. The moment you surrender your individuality, you surrender your ability to rise above the crowd. Of course, that doesn't mean you should rock the boat for no reason. You don't need to argue against popular opinion if you honestly agree with it, and even when you do need to speak out, there are often ways to do so with tact that can help you avoid making unnecessary enemies. Instead of turning away and hardening your heart to the wrongs you see, let yourself be moved by those problems. It's easy to grow numb to misconduct. Standing against it is far more extraordinary. You might find yourself bothered by the abuse of power within your workplace or by the abuse of the powerless worldwide. Either way, when you choose to stand and fight back against that which is wrong, you take the first step toward a positive change that the average person is unwilling to commit to. Instead of accepting the status quo, you should be questioning everything about it. The current approach to something may or may not be the best approach, but you won't know for sure until you take the time to examine it. Some questions you may need to ask can include: Why does this rule or standard exist? What are the consequences of ignoring this rule or standard? What alternative options exist, and why are those options rarely/never used? Answer these questions honestly, understanding that you may not like all of the answers. An honest understanding of yourself and the world around you will provide you with the best perspective from which to work. You already have your own unique set of abilities and interests. Look for ways to apply them to your life. When you love the work you do and have a talent for doing it, you'll usually find yourself going further than you would while doing something you felt indifference toward. Regardless of what has happened in the past, you need to start having more faith in your abilities and decisions. If you can't trust yourself, you will never be able to move past mediocrity. Trusting yourself can inspire others to trust you, too. If you project an image of uncertainty, others may pass you by and offer opportunities for growth and success to other, more confident people.

SUMMARY: Speak your mind. Let yourself be moved. Question everything. Use your talents and passions. Trust yourself.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: An aggressive rabbit has learnt to bite and scratch in order to avoid being picked up. Be aware that your rabbit is doing this out of fear and unease around humans. Gradually gain your rabbit's trust. Don't try forcing your rabbit to cuddle or sit in your lap. Hiding can decrease his stress levels, so he may feel comforted knowing that he has lots of places to hide. This will also make your rabbit feel more secure. At first, do not attempt to handle him, but offer treats (you can even feed him dandelions!) so that he associates tasty foods with human company. Sit down beside the hutch every day, talking in a soothing voice and giving treats, so he learns humans are no threat. You can offer several kinds of fruits to your rabbit, such as grapes, apples, blueberries, and raspberries. Be sure to only give a very small amount, like a single grape or a couple of raspberries. As your rabbit starts to venture out of his hiding place for treats, try to touch him briefly while he eats a treat. As the days and weeks go by, increase the amount of time you touch him until he's comfortable. Then you can try to entice him onto your lap (seated on the ground of course). This is also a great way of gaining a timid, frightened rabbit's trust.

SUMMARY: Avoid handling a rabbit that's biting or scratching. Provide plenty of hiding places for your rabbit. Start keeping your rabbit company. Begin interacting gradually.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can also use paper towel tubes, but you will need to cut them in half. Use enough tape so that there are no holes. If there are any holes, the chalk mixture will leak. Cut the wax paper into 6 inch by 6 inch (15.25 centimeters by 15.25 centimeters) squares. Roll the wax paper into a tube and slip it inside each toilet paper roll. Gently spread the wax paper out until it is the same size as the toilet paper roll. The top of the wax paper should stick out of the top of the tube. The wax paper will protect the cardboard from the chalk mixture.

SUMMARY: Gather three to six toilet paper rolls. Cover one end of each tube with duct tape. Line the tubes with wax paper.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Smart Playlists allow you to give iTunes a set of parameters to make a playlist for you. For example, I could create a smart playlist that organizes all of my recent music label "rock," and iTunes would find all of the songs for me. To make one, click on the "Playlists" header at the top of iTunes, click on the small gray cross in the bottom left corner, then choose "New Smart Playlist." Smart playlists can make a list of all the music you've added that month, every one of your top rated "jazz" songs, only songs with high quality audio, your most played songs, and more. The smart playlist window allows you to tell iTunes where to find the music you want. From here, you can choose the parameters for your playlist: The first box chooses how to organize you playlist (album, artist, genre, file size, etc.) The second box defines the parameter, (contains the phrase, is not, etc) The third box let's you input what songs you want to choose from. For example, if I want a playlist of all songs by "The Who," I would select "Artist" in the first box, "Contains" in the second, and then write "The Who" in the third. This means the playlist will contain all songs by the artist, "The Who." This lets you chose songs by genres, plays, date added, bit rate -- you name it. You can make as many parameters as you'd like and iTunes automatically sorts your songs. .." button to adjust parameters. For example, if you want to add The Who, but don't want any of the songs off of the album "Tommy," you can click "..." and choose "Album," "Does Not Contain" and write in "Tommy." Otherwise the playlist will just choose random songs. This is useful if you choose parameters like "recently added songs" or constantly download new music. Every time you open iTunes it will update the playlist for you. iTunes can take almost any song and find 20-30 songs like it, making a playlist for you. To make a Genius Playlist, right click on a song and select "Create Genius Playlist." You can then add or delete songs from this playlist like any other.

SUMMARY:
Use "smart" playlists to let iTunes make playlists for you. Set the parameters for your playlist. Click the "+" button to add new parameters. Click the ". Make sure the "Match The Following Rule" box is checked. Check "live updating" to keep your playlist automatically up to date. Alternatively, make Genius Playlists to find similar songs automatically.
