Summarize the following:
By getting to the point and clearly identifying your purpose, you present a professional image that will be taken seriously by the reader. This also increases the likelihood your email will be read and responded to promptly, as people put off dealing with overly wordy responses.  After identifying yourself and  your company, your next sentence should explain the email's purpose. It's best to state your case within two sentences.  Be positive. Even if you're writing to address a complaint or concern, be courteous and respectful throughout the email. Do not bad mouth bosses, other companies, or employees as this reflects poorly on you. While in cover letters, it's standard to include some basic background information about yourself if you're emailing on behalf of a company leave that information out. Simply state your name and your position in the company before moving on to the email's purpose. A business email should be as easy to read as possible. This means using clear language that is easy to understand.  Choose the active voice over the passive voice. For example, do not say, "A memo was sent to you by my boss, James Peterson." Instead say, "My boss, James Peterson, sent you a memo."  Avoid jargon and technical terms, even if such terms are used heavily in your company. Opt for simple English and common phrases.  Use short sentences. Eliminate conjunctions when possible and break up long sentences.  For example, "We did not hear back from you in regards to the memo and wanted to follow up to make sure you understood the information." This would be better stated as, "We did not hear back from you in regards to the memo. We wanted to follow to make sure you understood the information."  Use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Spell check and proofread all emails before hitting the send button. There are certain rules of etiquette in regards to what should be transmitted via email. Understand what to avoid sending before contacting someone.  Attachments are okay if you're emailing regarding information that was specifically requested, but do not send attachments to strangers without prompting.  Avoid overly large attachments and files. In the event sending such information is necessary, send an email beforehand giving the recipient a head's up.  Do not use an overly long signature. Ideally, your signature should only include your name, mailing address, email address, and phone number. If you want, it's also appropriate to include your job title.  Do not include graphics or backgrounds. They tend to clog up email memory and come off as unprofessional in a business setting.

summary: Keep it short and to the point. Use simple, direct prose. Know what to avoid sending.

If your Braxton Hicks contractions are making you uncomfortable, moving will often make them go away. If you have been walking, taking some time to sit might also stop them. Getting a massage, taking a bath, or just taking some much-needed rest time can help soothe your contractions. Reading, listening to music, or napping can all be helpful. If you can sleep through your contractions, then they are probably not labor contractions. Braxton Hicks are a healthy exercise your uterus does to prepare for labor. They occur naturally, but some pregnant people find them to be triggered by particular activities. You might experience a Braxton Hicks after exercise or strenuous activity. Some are triggered by sex or orgasm. Some people experience Braxton Hicks when they are overtired or dehydrated.  Learning your triggers can help you recognize a Braxton Hicks contraction when it comes. Braxton Hicks do not need to be prevented, but they can be a good reminder to drink water and get rest.

summary: Take a walk. Relax. Know your triggers.

Before you use the banana peel, you want to make sure that your skin is free from dirt and oils. Use a mild cleanser to clean the affected area, then rinse with cool water. Pat the skin dry with a soft clean towel. Don't scrub or rub your skin too harshly. This will inflame your skin and could make acne worse. You'll want to pick out a banana that is ripe. It should be yellow with black spots. Avoid bananas that are under-ripe (bright yellow with green tips) or over-ripe (greasy and black). Using a ripe banana will also make it easier to wipe over the acne-affected area. Remove the banana from its peel. You won't need to use it to treat acne, so eat it or save it for treating another skin issue. Cut the peel so that it's easy to hold a chunk in your hand. Banana peels contain vitamins A, B, C, E, and contain potassium, zinc, iron, and manganese. These nutrients can calm inflamed skin and and reduce acne outbreaks. Use the interior part of the peel that appears white. Take the chunk of banana peel and gently rub or massage your skin with it for about 10 minutes. Every few minutes, you should check to see if the peel is still white inside. Once it's turned black, replace it with another piece and continue massaging your skin. Don't immediately wash your face once you've finished massaging it with the banana peel. If you can, wait until the end of the day to rinse your skin off with cool water. This will allow your skin to absorb the banana peel's nutrients. If you can't wait until the end of the day to wash your face, try rubbing the peel on your face before you go to bed. In the morning, rinse your face with clean water. While you only need to rub your face with the banana peel once during the day, you should do this for several days in a row. After a few days, you may notice your acne begin to clear up or at least appear less red. If you notice your skin becomes extremely irritated after using the banana peel, stop using it and give your skin a chance to rest. Consider seeing a dermatologist if your acne continues or gets worse.
summary: Wash your skin. Select your banana. Prepare the peel. Rub the banana peel over your skin. Let your skin rest. Continue to treat your skin with banana peels.
