Problem: Article: The main scale on a Vernier caliper typically tells you the whole number plus the first decimal. Read this just as you would a ruler, measuring to the zero mark on the sliding (Vernier) scale. For example, if the 0 on the sliding scale lines up with the 2 inch mark, your measurement is 2 inches. If it lines up past 2 inches by six tenth-inch marks, your measurement is 2.6 inches. If the result is between two lines, just use the smaller value. Do not try to estimate a value between the two lines. Find the first mark on the Vernier scale that lines up perfectly with any line on the main scale. That mark tells you the value of the additional digits. For example, the 14 on the Vernier scale aligns with a line on the main scale. Let's say the scale represents 0.01 inch increments, so the 14 represents 0.014". It makes no difference which line on the main scale it aligns with. We've already taken our reading from the main scale; don't take another one. Add the main scale and Vernier scale results together to get the final answer. Make sure you use the correct units as labeled on each scale, or you won't get the right answer. In our example, we measured 2.6 inches on the main scale, and 0.014 inches on the Vernier scale. Our final measurement is 2.614 inches. The digits don't always line up this neatly. For example, if the main centimeter scale reads 0.85, and the Vernier 0.01 cm scale reads 12, adding them together results in 0.85 + 0.012 = 0.862 cm.
Summary: Read the main scale where it lines up with the sliding scale's zero. Read the Vernier scale. Add the numbers together.

Problem: Article: Many other salads, such as chicken or tuna salad, chicken salad, and pasta salad will have pre-cooked ingredients, so it's very important to keep the food protected from the air as much as possible. If you can only use plastic cling wrap over your salad, it's best not to keep it over two or three days. Salads with pre-cooked ingredients will need to be stored in the refrigerator to prevent bacteria from growing or the food from going bad. Discard the salad if it was kept outside for more than two hours or has developed an "off" smell, particularly with egg salads or potato salads with a mayonnaise-based dressing. Many pre-cooked salads contain mayonnaise-based dressings or products which spoil after about five days even when stored in the refrigerator. Determine the ingredients in your salad and keep it no longer than the shelf life of your fastest-spoiling ingredient. Non-mayonnaise based pasta salad can be kept fresh for five to seven days.
Summary: Put the salad in an airtight, sealed container. Store the salad container in the refrigerator as soon as possible. Store your salad for no more than five days before eating.

Problem: Article: If you sent a message to someone that makes you feel embarrassed but is not hurtful to anyone, know that the worst is over. A random message sent to the wrong person might be embarrassing, but it won't kill you. Embarrassment and anxiety manifest in many physical ways. You may feel lightheaded, weak, have a stomach cramp, or a headache. Take deep breaths, do a little stretching, and make sure you stay hydrated. As time passes, these symptoms will fade, along with your embarrassment. If the issue is the result of a group message gone awry, staying a member of the group may only make the situation worse. If a conversation gets heated or inappropriate, it's best to leave it before sending a message you might later regret. Click the Messages icon at the top right of any Facebook page, (or launch Messenger if you're using a mobile device.) Open the group conversation you want to leave. Click the wheel icon (desktop) or the arrow icon (Messenger) at the top right corner of the message. Select "Leave Conversation" (on all platform). A notification will be sent to the others that you have left the conversation, and you won't receive any further messages. Having to look at something hurtful over and over again isn't good for anyone. If you wince in pain every time you see the harmful message in your inbox, you can archive the message. This won't delete it, but it'll file it away so it's no longer in your face. You'll be able to find it at any time by searching for the recipient's name. Open your inbox by clicking the Messages icon at the top right of any Facebook page, or launch Messenger on your mobile device. If you're using the desktop version of Facebook, click the X next to the conversation you want to archive. In Facebook Messenger for mobile devices, swipe left on the message and select "Archive." If the person to whom you wrongfully sent a message responds expressing sadness, embarrassment, or anger, respond with a brief message that makes them feel seen, heard, and understood. Some examples: If the person responding says that they are very angry, say, "I hear that you are angry, and I definitely understand why." If a person says they are embarrassed, say, "I can understand why you would feel embarrassed. I would also feel embarrassed if someone did to me what I did to you." If they say they are devastated, say, "I understand and accept that my actions have been upsetting to you. That's totally valid." Receiving an angry response from someone you upset won't feel good, but it's a part of their process. However, abusive language and threats of violence are never okay, even when you've upset someone. Report any hate speech or threats of violence to Facebook.
Summary:
Forgive yourself. Take care of your physical needs. Leave a group conversation or thread. Archive messages you don't want to see. Validate the recipient's feelings. Know your limits.
