Q: If you're out of the house, stranded in a cornfield in the middle of nowhere and your friends are good-for-nothings, you may need to make a phone call to get you out of there. This is where not panicking comes into play. Breathe. Who could take you home? Weigh your options. You may not want to call your parents, but it could be your best option. Your situation may get worse, the cops could eventually come, and all hell would break loose. Or you could just call someone to get you the heck out of there now. Your parents may be glad you called and lessen your punishment. The world is not over. "Sneaking out" is not a felony -- sneaking out to rob a bank, sure, but sneaking out is not. So stay calm. Panicking will just make your situation worse. Only fabricate a story if you're positive it would work. Sometimes honesty is the best policy in a situation like this -- or at least sticking closer to the truth. If you say a friend was having a panic attack or was contemplating suicide, make sure your parents (or the cops) will not get a hold of the friend. Your story either needs to check out or not get checked out at all. If a policeman shows up on the scene and stops you for violating curfew, it's in your best interest to cooperate with him. If he stops you for a more egregious crime, it's still in your best interest to cooperate with him. If you tell the police that you are on your way home and he lets you go, go home. If you are found out and about later, your punishment will be much worse. Take that stroke of luck you were just offered and use it. You don't necessarily have to pick up, but texting them back and telling them you are coming home is a wise idea. If they get worried, they may alert the entire town. They may blow the situation out of proportion entirely. If you are nearby, it's possible you can come up with an alibi. However, your parents aren't stupid. If you do come up with some outrageous story, make sure you look like what you said just happened, did. If you got into a brawl with a giant squirrel, look like you got into a brawl with a giant squirrel. If you spent the night stargazing, come in with grass stains. You know the drill.
A: Think of a plan B. Don't panic. Cooperate with authority. If your parents call, somehow let them know you're fine.

Q: On some Samsung Galaxy tablets, you can enable a setting which allows you to take a screenshot by swiping the edge of your hand from right to left across the screen. This feature isn't available on every Samsung tablet, and you can't use it when your tablet's on-screen keyboard is displaying. This will prompt the Notifications drop-down menu to appear. It's in the top-right corner of the drop-down menu. Doing so opens the Settings app. This is on the left side of the screen. The Advanced Features menu will open on the right side of the screen. It's on the right side of the screen. The switch should turn blue, signifying that you'll be able to use a palm swipe to take a screenshot from now on.  If this switch is blue, the "Palm swipe to capture" feature is already enabled. If you can't find the "Palm swipe to capture" option, your Samsung tablet can't use this feature to take screenshots. Try using your tablet's buttons instead. Open the app, screen, or page on which you want to take a screenshot. The "Palm swipe to capture" feature will only work if your tablet's on-screen keyboard isn't active. You can get rid of the keyboard by tapping on a non-text field somewhere on the page. You can use either hand, but you must place the pinky finger edge of your hand on the far-right side of the screen. Doing so will cause your tablet to take a screenshot; you'll know a screenshot has been taken when the screen zooms out slightly. Your tablet may also vibrate or make a confirmation chime. Once you've taken your screenshot, you can open it in one of the following ways:   Notifications menu — Swipe down from the top of the screen, then tap the Screenshot captured notification.  Gallery — Open the Gallery photos app, tap the ALBUMS tab, tap the Screenshots album, and tap your screenshot.
A:
Understand when to use this method. Swipe down from the top of the screen. Tap the Settings  icon. Tap Advanced features. Tap the white "Palm swipe to capture" switch . Go to the item you want to screenshot. Make sure that your keyboard isn't showing. Place the edge of one of your hands on the right side of the screen. Swipe your hand left at an even speed. View the screenshot.
