Article: Find out where the plane flew from. Is here anybody you know living, working, or traveling there? Were you expecting this person to be catching a flight for any reason from this place at this time? Try phoning or emailing the person in question if you have a real reason to be concerned. Reaching them will settle your concerns. If you don't reach the person, scan the news for more information. Be aware that some airports are extremely busy and that there are many flights leaving around the same time as the crashed flight. Expect them to be very busy and for the lines to be engaged. Be patient and keep trying. Search online for airport contact details. Search online for the local (relevant) police or rescue authorities. You might need to use news stories to reach a decision as to which country's authorities are dealing with the plane crash if it happens over sea - consider trying the departure country, the destination country, and any nearby countries closest to the crash location (if known). Keep abreast of the news as to victims. The news stories will change frequently and there may be a lot of mistaken reporting, so hold onto your hopes, as there may be survivors yet. Find people to support you immediately. Making decisions from afar under unknown and very upsetting circumstances cannot be done alone. Stay in touch with emergency officials. Give them your details, your relationship status to any persons on board, and how you can be contacted at any time. If you need to get on a plane to be there, you might suffer additional anxiety. You might wish to see your doctor for medication to help you through this. Consider asking someone you trust and can rely upon to accompany you, or to go in your stead if you don't feel that you can go. Consider not going but relying on the authorities to do all that needs to be done. If you have children impacted by this news, keep them informed as you have the facts and try to avoid scaring them unnecessarily. If you cannot cope, consider asking a friend or relative to look after the children for a time. Don't give into the advice of other people if it feels wrong for you. If you are in the awful position of receiving the worst news that a loved one or friend has died, the way in which you respond and grieve are entirely personal and down to who you are and your relationship with this person. You may need to be treated for shock. This is another very important reason why you must not be left alone.

Remember that the "right" decision for you is the one made by you.
Article: If you are taking any vitamins or supplements, make sure those supplements are gluten-free as well. Many capsules contain gluten, so try to avoid these types of supplements. Look for the label "gluten-free" on the package, which signals it should be okay for your body. If you can't find one with this label, call manufacturers to see which ones offer gluten-free products. Medications can also contain gluten, especially when they are in capsule form, and it can be difficult to figure out which ones do and do not contain gluten. Talk to your pharmacist for guidance, and if you need to, call the manufacturer of the drug. You may find that the generic version has gluten when the brand name doesn't or vice verse. Lipsticks and lip balms can also cause issues, as many of them contain gluten. The gluten provides the wax-like property that is desirable in these products. Since they are applied to your lips, you may ingest some of the product. You'll likely need to call the manufacturer to find out if a certain product contains gluten, unless "gluten-free" is printed on the label. Look into natural cosmetic lines and ask a representative of the products if you are unsure. It's also important to check your toothpaste and mouthwash (rarely). The packaging for your toothpaste may also contain gluten. Look into natural products, but make sure that they are gluten free before trying them. While lickable stamps have partially fallen out of use, they can be a source of gluten, so be careful. The glue on lickable envelopes, too, can also contain gluten. When in doubt, it's best to choose the self-sticking options so you don't have to put yourself at risk.

Check your vitamins and supplements. Check your medications. Read the label for cosmetics and health products. Be wary of lickable glues.
Article: Decide how thick you want the coat, or determine the type of finish that you want (from completely smooth to rough and textured). If you are right-handed, you will be holding the skimmer plate in your left hand and the compound applicator in your right hand. You may have to adjust your technique to get the desired thickness and texture. You can always add more compound to the surface, but once dry, it is messy and time-consuming to remove. Mound the compound up at one end of a repair area, then pull it across the surface with the compound applicator. Apply firm, even pressure in the direction of the joint/crack, similar to pulling a window squeegee, such that little material is present on either side of the repair area. Start in one corner of the wall, and work down from the highest point. If you are skimming a ceiling, start at an edge and work towards the center. If you have never skimmed before, try practicing on a piece of scrap drywall. This way, you can get used to the applicator and the weight of the compound, and you can see what it will look like when dry. Once you have applied the first scoop, take another and work out of the spot you just finished. Be thoroughmake sure that each new scoop overlaps with the last. Pull the coat in different directions to even out bumps and valleys regardless of how they are aligned. A repair area isn't flat: it is a low, smooth mound, made to look flat. Shine a light along the surface to identify areas where the wall is sunken, and mark those spots with pencil as you go. Patience is key, but you must work efficiently so that the mixed compound does not dry out before you finish. Give yourself enough time to complete an entire section. Try not to stop in the middle of a surface, as blending a dried section with wet compound can be difficult. Do not try to rush the application by taking a larger scoop. This may make your arms tired, it may lead to compound falling off your skimmer, and you may need to go over the area later to remove excess compound. Smooth fiberglass repair tape onto cracks and joints. Let the surface set or dry out before you apply the next coat. If repair areas are deep/large, count on 24 coats to get solid repairs & smooth surfaces. Do not apply excess material or try to finish with one coatthis can only be fixed by demo or lots of sanding. It is better to do many thin coats than an uneven one that needs repair.

Prepare to apply the first skim coat. Apply the first scoop. Keep spreading the skim coat over the repair area. Allow the first layer to set for several hours or overnight.
