Problem: Article: If you can't come to accept and embrace a same-sex marriage, it's important to at least learn how to be polite and nice about it. For instance, if you interfere too much and try to end the relationship, you can damage your relationship with those involved. Trying to make or influence the couple's decisions will simply cause arguments, friction, and pass you off as controlling and narrow minded. You might not like the outcome, but it's not your life. Let the same-sex couple find happiness and faults by themselves. Don't try to teach them yourself. In fact, the success of the relationship may surprise you. Some methods for objecting to something you disagree with can do more harm than good. Don't charge in with no thought of the repercussions of your actions. You could make the situation worse. For example, if the couple has children, you may feel that this is not an ideal environment for the children. But there is no way to change the situation after the fact, without causing the children far greater harm. A child who already knows and loves two parents of the same sex will not benefit in any way from being separated from one or both of them. This is a situation in which, even if the marriage ended, it would do more harm than good. If your personal beliefs do not agree with same-sex relationships, don't pretend you agree but don't introduce or pursue the subject. As it's wrong to lie and put up masks with people, it's also not right to stir up trouble or pick at wounds. If you know that you are never going to totally be accepting of the marriage, then don't bring it up! Don't show them any hatred or disgust. Instead, show them love and open arms. This situation is probably hard enough to lay out on the table, so the couple will need all the support they can get. Do not sit in judgment of their actions, or feel you have to accept it. Consider telling the couple, "I am so happy that your are happy." This doesn't bring your negative feelings about same-sex marriage into the conversation but is an honest expression of your feelings as well. If you can't find it in yourself to be supportive, stay away until you feel that you can be civil. This may mean staying away from a same-sex couple completely or just cooling off until you can control what comes out of your mouth. If you are finding it hard to accept the marriage, it's a sensible idea to keep your distance until you do. Otherwise you may end up saying or doing something you will later regret. Give yourself the time and space to work on your problem without forcing it on the happy couple.
Summary: Don't interfere in the relationship. Sit back and let whatever may happen, happen. Choose your battles. Try to be happy for the couple. Stay away.

Problem: Article: Even if you go camping in a warm climate, the city streets can still become uncomfortably cold at night. Pack jeans, long johns, long-sleeved shirts, and a sweater to give yourself plenty of clothing options. You may also want to pack a warm hat or beanie and wool socks to keep your head and feet warm. Even if you're sleeping in a car or van, you'll probably want to have a sleeping bag you can slide into when you go to sleep. Go with as small a tent as you can comfortably sleep in to minimize the amount of attention you'll draw to yourself. Be sure to pack blankets and possibly a pillow as well so that you can be comfortable when you go to bed. If you're worried about being exposed when you're sleeping, your best bet will be to sleep in your car or invest in a tent with a lockable flap. Look ahead to see if it will rain or snow on the days that you plan to be camping in the city. Be sure to pack an umbrella, a raincoat, a winter jacket, or whatever you'd need to handle the weather during your camping adventure. If you're camping in your car, you may want to keep an umbrella in the glove compartment all the time just in case. You probably won't have access to an oven or any other means of cooking, so only pack stuff that you can eat raw. Packaged foods, trail mixes, peanut butter, and crackers are all great choices for any camping trip. Avoid packing junk food as best you can. It may be easiest to bring on a camping trip, but it won't give you much energy or nourishment. Bring water bottles as well to help you stay hydrated. These are things like dry shampoo and disposable toothbrushes that don't require water. You may not have reliable access to a bathroom to wash up in, so packing dry toiletries is your best bet for maintaining your hygiene on your camping trip. If you have a membership in a gym that extends to the area you are going to and has some along the way, you can use their showers. Urban camping can be a tad dangerous at times, so it's wise to have some money and supplies on hand if something unexpected happens. Be sure to keep your money somewhere out of sight to avoid making yourself a target for burglars. If you have one, pack an extra phone battery as well, in case your primary battery dies and you can't recharge it.
Summary: Bring warm clothes you can dress in layers with while you're sleeping. Pack a tent and sleeping bag if you don't plan to sleep in your car. Check the weather forecast in the city and pack accordingly. Bring dry foods you can eat without having to cook them. Be sure to pack toiletries you can use without water. Include cash and a first aid kit for emergencies in your packing.

Problem: Article: Using your own breath or a hair dryer, blow the dust and dirt off the plexiglass. If using a hair dryer, be sure it is set to its coolest setting. Hot air will damage the plexiglass. Position the hair dryer at a 45 degree angle several inches away from the plexiglass, running the air side-to-side down the surface. Take the time to thoroughly remove the dust by air before moving on, and keep blowing if you see or feel any large particles on the plexiglass. Avoid using a microfiber cloth, because although microfiber is non abrasive, scrubbing dirt or dust with the cloth before blowing larger particles off will still scratch the glass. Mix 1 teaspoon (5 millimeters) of soap into 1 US-quart (950ml) (0.95 liters) of water. Angle the plexiglass at 45 degrees and gently pour the solution over the plexiglass. Be sure to do this in a sink or someplace that will not be damaged by running water. You can also pour the solution into a spray bottle, and gently spray the plexiglass. Keep the plexiglass at a 45 degree angle and allow the mixture to run down the plexiglass slowly. Gently running this mixture over the plexiglass will remove the smaller particles of dust and dirt, preparing the glass for wiping. Products like Windex, which contain alcohol, will significantly damage plexiglass. Also avoid solvents such as acetone, dry-cleaning fluid, or any gritty cleanser or polish, as they will damage the surface of the plexiglass. Although it is best to use a soap and water mixture, there are some products you can buy that are meant specifically for plexiglass, like Brillianize or Novus.
Summary:
Blow dust and dirt off the plexiglass. Wet the plexiglass with a solution made from water and dish soap. Avoid using products with alcohol, ammonia, or aromatics.
