In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Use scissors to cut the bottom off a 2 L (68  fl oz)  plastic bottle. Then remove a 3-in (7.3-cm) wide panel from one side of the bottle. The panel will extend from the cut off bottom to where the neck of the bottle begins to curve toward its spout. The plastic may be jagged where it was cut with scissors. Use medical tape along the cut edges of the bottle for padding. Poke breathing holes into the bottom of an aluminum can with scissors or a screwdriver. After that, cut off the top of the aluminum can with a sturdy pair of scissors, tin snips, or shears. Be careful when handling the cut metal of the can. It is often sharp enough to easily cause cuts. A layer of duct or medical tape can be used on sharp edges as padding. Insert a layer of cotton into the bottom of the can. Add a layer of activated charcoal on top of the cotton, then sandwich the charcoal with another layer of cotton on top. Tape cotton over the cut top of the can, then cut a small hole in the cotton. Use caution when loading the aluminum can with charcoal, especially if you decided not to pad its sharp edges with tape. Insert the spout of the 2 L (68  fl oz) bottle into the hole in the cotton at the top of the can. Tape the aluminum can to the 2 L (68  fl oz) bottle to complete the mask. By breathing through the spout, the air you breathe will be filtered by the charcoal in the can.
Summary: Fashion a mask from a plastic 2 L (68  fl oz) bottle. Create a filter chamber with an aluminum can. Load the gas mask with activated charcoal. Tape together the gas mask and use it when necessary.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: your baby.  They may not like the process, but the results can be amazing.  Swaddling is believed to recreate the coziness of the womb, and may enhance the calming impact of other soothing steps. Once swaddled, turn baby on their side and gently jiggle them.  Shush them loudly — make sure they can hear you over their own screaming.  Think about how loud the vacuum cleaner is — that's the kind of volume it might take to get their attention. The recurring motion may soothe your shrieking baby and get them to stop crying, at least briefly. While it’s tempting to let a crying baby sleep anywhere they please, experts recommend not letting babies sleep in swings, carriers, car seats, etc. — try to get them to sleep in a safe, secure crib. Driving, strolling, or even carrying your baby around may provide some relief to both of you. Some people swear by car rides as a colic remedy — bundle the baby up, buckle them in, and within ten minutes in the car, their cries might be quieted.  Or, if you prefer fresh air and exercise, going for walks with a baby carriage can also work. If you have tasks or chores to do, try using a baby sling or carrier that holds the baby close to your body, yet leaves both hands free as you walk around the house. The vibrations can be calming to a baby. Secure the baby properly in a car seat or a baby bouncer. Do not ever leave your baby on a washing machine or dryer unattended. Try the vacuum cleaner. It sounds odd, but many parents swear it works.  Just set the baby in the bassinet or car seat and let them become fascinated by a sound louder than they're making.  Or, turn on a floor fan or window air conditioner. Make sure it’s an older, roaring type, not some new whisper-quiet model. You might also want to invest in a sound machine that mimics a mother's heart beat (or makes other white noise sounds). This can be a lifesaver for both parent and child. Lay the baby on their stomach across your knees — but remember to support the head at all times.  Jiggle your feet up and down and pat softly. This vibration can be very soothing. Instead of over-stimulating your baby's senses, see if reducing external stimulation works. Lie on your back in a quiet, dark place. Hold the baby firmly on your chest with their head over your heart. Raising your knees with your feet flat on a solid surface, rock yourself, calming the infant.
Summary: Swaddle Try a baby swing. Take them for a ride. Put your baby on top of the washing machine or dryer. Turn on a loud home appliance. Jiggle the infant on your lap. Try a more calm and quiet approach if jiggling doesn't work.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The best way to ensure that you will feel comfortable is by attending the party with someone you know. This way, you can both watch each others' backs. It is better to arrive with a friend instead of meeting them at the party. If you plan to meet at the party, you might be stranded alone at the party for an hour or more. Be aware that if you bring an outgoing friend, they may want to be more social than you want to be. On the other hand, if you opt for someone who's less outgoing than you are, you may be tempted to hide out in a corner together and not socialize with other people. Don’t be shy and knock on the door. Once you’re in the party, make sure to greet the host, if there is a clear host. Near the beginning of arriving at a house party, you should scan the rooms and see if you recognize anyone. Go through each room and scout the area for any friends or acquaintances you have.  Introduce yourself by saying, "Hi, my name is Jill. How's it going?" Just be yourself and people will respond positively. If you are not close with someone, but you’ve chatted before, this is a good person to talk to. Try not to interrupt anyone who’s engaged in a conversation. If none of your friends have arrived, try to play it cool by not seeming too desperate for conversation or attention. One way teens cope with this awkwardness is by smoking, but you should skip smoking. It's bad for your health, and you could start a bad habit that could last for years. Instead, check your cell phone for articles to read. Don’t feel embarrassed if you don’t know anyone at the party. Scan the party for somebody who doesn’t seem too preoccupied by a conversation. By finding someone who is free and seems to be in a similar situation, you have an opportunity to create a conversation. Once you create an interesting conversation, other partygoers might notice you.  Start simply by introducing yourself and tell this person how you recognize them. Then you can move into a discussion on the mutual topic that connects you.  You can spice up the conversation by asking questions about their past. You can ask questions like: “Have you ever lived somewhere else?,” or “What did you do last weekend?” One of the easiest ways to socialize at a house party is to hang out with your friends. This is a good strategy because other partygoers will frequently enter your circle of friends. When other people come into your circle of friends, you can introduce yourself.  Follow your friend group, but don’t feel inclined to follow them throughout the entire night. A fun thing to do at house parties is to venture off alone. Sometimes it can be helpful to make it your goal to get somebody's phone number. Many people do this for dating purposes, but you can also make the same goal for gaining a friend. Once you meet somebody, keep asking questions until you both realize you enjoy each other's company.   Socializing doesn't come easily for everyone and that is fine. Making goals can sometimes improve your ability to socialize. One way of getting somebody's phone number is by asking them if they'd like to hang out a different time. You could say, "Hey, do you want to go to the Cubs game with me?"
Summary:
Go to the party with a friend. Arrive at the party. Introduce yourself to someone you recognize. Interact with your group of friends. Exchange phone numbers with someone.
