INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Making beaded earrings is quite easy. However, you will need to have some special materials ready before you get started. You will probably need to visit a craft store to find everything, or you can order your materials online. Before you begin, you will need:  Endpins (looks like a straight wire with a small button at the end). Endpins are available in many thicknesses to accommodate different sizes of beads. Sometimes you will see the thickness mentioned by gauge (ga) on the packaging. In this case, a larger number (for example, 24 ga) indicates a thinner endpin, while a smaller number (for example, 20 ga) indicates a thicker headpin. Beads in the colors and types of your choice Round nose pliers Earring hooks Wire cutters

SUMMARY: Gather your materials.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Sometimes cold sores can become extremely painful, even leading to headaches and other related pains. Hold a hot water bottle or a bag of ice wrapped in a towel up to your lip for 20 minutes. The warm or cool temperature will help ease the pain. Creams and ointments containing benzocaine or lidocaine provide temporary pain relief. They're commonly packaged as anti-itch creams and are available in drug stores. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin and ibuprofen can reduce pain around your mouth and help relieve associated headaches. Follow the instructions on the bottle for proper dosage.
Summary: Apply a warm or cold compress. Use a topical anesthetic. Take a pain reliever.

Bullies thrive on making people upset.  If you can ignore them, they won't get this satisfaction. This should be your first line of defense, and will prevent many cases of cyberbullying.  Ignore the bully only if it's a first-time, mild comment or action online. If the bully’s actions are repeated or severe, respond. If someone says something cruel online, it's tempting to say something mean about them. Trying to get even rarely works with a cyber bully, however. “Trolls” feed on people getting upset at their harassing comments and posts online. Don’t give them that satisfaction. If you've had problems with someone, even if you don't consider it full-fledged bullying, you could just cut off all online contact with them. Social media platforms, email services, phone service providers, and other outlets all provide ways to block particular users. On the other hand, if a bully is bothering you, it's easy for you to keep a record of the harassment. Keep copies of any emails or texts, take screenshots of any messages, etc. That way, if you need to show that bullying took place, you'll have proof that can stop the bully. Whether you've been the target of bullying, feel you're at risk for being bullied, or just want to stop the problem in general, let someone else know what's going on. If you’re underage, talk to an adult, like a parent or school counselor. Otherwise, talk to a friend or mentor for support.

One-sentence summary -- Ignore the bully if possible. Resist the urge to fire back. Block whoever is harassing you. Keep evidence of any bullying. Get the help of someone you trust.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If it is malfunctioning, or is a sand-bed filter, backwash cleaning methods could have damaged the filtration media. It is essential to continue pool maintenance, and any malfunction should be treated seriously.  Check the lines and filtration media before deciding what to replace. Vacuum any loose debris, scrub the sides and floor with a brush, and vacuum any loosened detritus. Run the pool filter for 8-12 hours to remove any flotsam and detritus that might be clouding the pool. Loose colloidal particles cause cloudiness. They are either organic in nature (like algae) or mineral buildups (loose calcium). Adjust the chemicals to these ranges and run the pool filter system for another day before re-testing.  Free chlorine: 1-2 ppm Combined chlorine: <.3ppm pH: 7.2 – 7.8 Total alkalinity: 80 – 120 ppm Calcium hardness: 180 – 220 ppm (higher levels are acceptable up to approximately 400ppm) Do not attempt to mix strong acids or bases in your pool or without eye and skin protection and respirators. Combined chlorine is free chlorine that has reacted with an agent in the water to form chloramine, which produces a strong chlorine scent. Pool shock kits should raise the chlorine to over 30ppm.  If your pH test kit uses litmus paper and produces a purple or off color, this may be due to high levels of chlorine. Test kits often have a reagent, typically thiosulfate, that will remove the chlorine and enable an accurate test. High levels of cyanuric acid can reduce chlorine’s efficacy as a sterilizing agent and can be reduced with dilution. High variance day-to-day indicates a chlorine demand problem. Monitor cyanuric acid levels, which acts as a stabilizer for chlorine to prevent UV degradation, and consider investigating your chlorinator or investing in one to ease the process of keeping your pool stable. Add them according to the directions on the package according to the volume of your pool. The solutions should be dispersed and accomplished their chemical reactions within six hours of treatment. You can also use dilution with softer water to soften the water. These are agglomerating solutions that work best in slightly alkaline water, and take several days for the full effect to be observed.  The hardness of local water resources varies tremendously from area to area, and the strength and dilution of these products can be recommended by pool cleaning professionals. Clarifiers are agglomerating solutions that bind to colloids from the water and bring them out of suspension, to be removed by vacuum or through the filter. These chemicals are called flocculents, and the process is referred to as flocculation.  Continue filtering for without interruption until the water clears. and continue to run your filtration system if the pool has not cleared. Keep in mind that too much clarifier will actually work against the clarifying process; particles will repel one another rather attract, and the concentration of the clarifier will increase. Follow label instructions to the letter. Do not repeat more often than 2 additional times over the course of one week. Discoloration, buildup, or rust, is likely the result of water hardness or alkalinity changes, rather than the flocculent. Multiple treatments failing generally indicates a secondary, unseen problem that can be detected and treated most effectively and safely by a professional. Multiple cleanings can cause skin and mucous membrane irritation for swimmers. Make sure any cleaning hardware is not malfunctioning.

SUMMARY:
Consider replacing your pool filter. Clean the floor and walls of the pool. Treat the water chemically to remove small particle buildup. Adjust the pH using a commercial acidifier or basify it with borax. Shock the pool if combined chlorine levels (the total chlorine level minus the free chlorine level) exceed .3ppm. Monitor the chlorine and bromine levels over several days for stability. Adjust the total alkalinity of the pool using sodium bisulfate or muriatic acid. Adjust the water hardness of the pool using a water softener. Use a clarifier on the pool water according to the directions, if all else fails. Use a second dose of clarifier, or a stronger clarifier chemical. Vacuum and scrub the hard surfaces of the pool to remove any deposited sediment from the flocculation. Call a pool cleaning professional in case of continued failure.
