Article: You can make your own list or search for detailed lists online. Take into account the weather at your destination and how long you'll be traveling for when you make your checklist. Consider breaking it down by: Clothing: tops, pants, pajamas, outerwear, socks, shoes, onesies Baby gear: car seat, stroller, crib, playpen, blankets, baby carrier, baby wrap Diaper bag: diapers, wipes, diaper rash cream, changing table pad Food: snacks, formula, breastmilk or pumping supplies, bib, bottles Weather appropriate items: sunscreen, bathing suits, sun hat, mittens, winter coat, snug hat It's easy to get carried away with packing everything you think your baby might possibly need. Keep track of how many outfits your baby usually goes through in a day and pack an extra outfit for each day. Once you've made a checklist, go back over the items and remove anything you can find at your destination. Try to be smart about what you choose to bring. Instead of bringing a winter coat that your baby may not use, plan on layering them in a onesie, jacket, and blanket, since you'll already be packing those. If you're planning on doing laundry at your destination, remember that you'll be able to wash your babies outfits so you shouldn't have to pack as many. If your baby gets sick during vacation, you'll want to make them comfortable as soon as possible. Pack medication that your baby takes and a few first aid supplies so you won't be scrambling to find a pharmacy in an unfamiliar area. Consider packing: Prescriptions that your baby is currently taking Infant pain reliever and fever-reducing medication Bandages Digital thermometer Infant-safe insect repellent If your baby is very young, they probably won't be interested in toys. You might bring a rattle and their lovey to make them feel safe and secure. If your baby is a little older, pack a few simple toys, such as blocks, puzzles, or stacking cups, that they can play with in the car or on the plane. Your baby may have a favorite blanket or stuffed animal that will help them settle in. Avoid overpacking toys since you'll probably be able to find toys at your destination. Your baby may be so curious about their new surroundings that they aren't as interested in playing with their usual toys. If you're flying, check with the airline to see what needs to be carried to the gate and what needs to be checked. Keep in mind that you'll probably want to use some gear, like a stroller, as you travel through the airport. If you're driving, pack your vehicle or overhead luggage carrier so it's easy for you to get to gear once you reach your destination. If you're checking baby gear at an airport, put your own luggage tag on the items as well as the tags that the airport gives you. Designate a part of the room as the baby changing space so you won't be scrambling through bags every time you need to change your baby's diaper. Then, decide where your baby will sleep and set up a crib if necessary. If your baby is crawling, you may want to pack a few baby proofing items, such as outlet plugs or covers. Then, you can quickly baby proof the room when you arrive.

Pack baby gear so it's easy to access while you travel. Plan on unpacking baby items as soon as you reach your destination.
Article: You can measure mass using a balance. A balance is different from a scale because it uses a known mass to measure the unknown mass where as a scale actually measures weight. Finding mass with a triple-beam balance or a double-pan balance is a form of measuring gravitational mass. This is a static measurement, which means it is only accurate when the object being measured is at rest. A balance can measure weight and mass. Because the measurement of the balance weights change by the same factor as the object being measured, a balance is able to accurately provide the mass of an object regardless of the specific gravity of the environment. Inertial mass is a dynamic measuring method, meaning that it can only be accomplished while the object being measured is in motion. The inertia of the object is used to quantify the amount of matter. An inertial balance is used to measure inertial mass. Secure the inertial balance to a table. Calibrate the inertial balance by putting the container in motion counting the number of vibrations in a specified time period, for example 30 seconds. Place an item of known mass in the container and repeat the experiment. Continue using several items of known mass to finish calibrating the scale. Repeat the experiment with an item of unknown mass. Graph all results to find the mass of the final object.

Measure gravitational mass. Measure inertial mass.
Article: Catching is the underappreciated skill that wins dodgeball games. Remember that catching balls knocks people out just like throwing them. It's actually better, because now you have another ball to throw and another teammate on your side! Always be prepared to take advantage of this part of the game. Even though you should always be on the lookout for balls you can catch, don't catch balls that you think you might drop. You drop it, you're out. If you'd have to reach for the ball even a little bit, let it go. Balls that you can catch with both hands are the golden ones. This means that they're coming right at you. You'll also be much more likely to keep control of balls that you can catch with both hands, rather than diving for one that you'd barely pull in with your fingertips. Be sure to catch balls with your whole hand, taking the brunt of the catch on your palms. Fingertip catches are much harder to maintain without dropping them. Once you've got the ball in your hands, bring it into your chest. You may be able to catch some balls with your whole body, and that's even better. Cradle it there until you're sure you've got control. This will help you avoid dropping it. Yay, you caught the ball! Now get moving again. Don't celebrate, as this is the moment when you'll find yourself targeted. Immediately after you have control of the ball, get back in the game and be ready to dodge and throw again. Stalling occurs when the referee decides that a player is trying to delay the game. Generally, you should be doing something with a ball after having it your hands for a few seconds. This could include blocking, rolling the ball back to the other team, or throwing it. After ten seconds, the ref can call on you for stalling and send you out of the game.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Be ready to catch every ball. Avoid trying to catch balls that are out of reach. Catch the ball with both hands. Catch the ball in your chest and cradle it. Recover quickly after a catch to avoid being eliminated. Don't stall the game by holding balls.
