Problem: Article: " A string is any straight section. A noose is any loop around your digits. Most string figure guides will use this nomenclature. The near thumb string is the straight piece of string closest to your chest, while the far thumb strings are the sections running from your thumb to the first X. The near index finger strings are the sections running from the center of this X to your index fingers, while the far index finger strings start at your index fingers and end at the further X. The near pinky finger strings begin at the further X and end at your pinky fingers. Finally, the far pinky finger string is the section that runs between your right and your left pinky fingers. Some guides will use "little finger" instead of "pinky finger" and "forefinger" or "pointer finger" instead of "index finger." There are six nooses, three for each hand. They are the left and right thumb nooses, index finger nooses, and pinky finger nooses. The nooses should sit right on top of the last knuckles of their corresponding digits.
Summary: Recognize the difference between a "string" and a "noose. Memorize the different strings. Learn the different nooses.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Never gossip about your friend to other people – most of the time, they are going to find out about it. It’s hard to rebuild trust when someone feels that you’ve betrayed them in this way. You should also avoid gossiping to your friend about other people. When you do this, it plants the idea in their head that you might also gossip about them, too.  When you gossip with someone, it can sometimes feel like you’re bonding with them because you’re sharing privileged information together. However, this is not a healthy way to bond with your friend. Nothing positive ever results from gossiping. If you hear other people gossiping about your friend, stand up for them. This will very clearly demonstrate your loyalty. Each time you break a promise, trust decreases. Be true to your word and avoid making promises that you can’t keep. If you do break a promise and it’s something minor, be sincerely apologetic and try to make it up to them in some way. The damage is usually minor in this situation. If you break an important promise, however, things are going to be a lot harder to make right.  Depending on the nature of the broken promise, gaining their trust may no longer be possible. The best approach is to avoid making promises that you can’t keep. Always try your best to keep the promises you do make. Support your friend’s dreams and goals, even when no one else does. Encourage them when they lose hope. Always have their back and show them that you can be counted on to be there for them. When someone knows that you are going to be supportive, they will feel more comfortable sharing things with you.  For example, "Darrell, I know how much you want to get into film school. I know your parents don't agree, but I think you have what it takes to get in. I got a really nice camera for Christmas, but I honestly don't use it much. I want you to have it..." Being supportive doesn’t mean always being in favor of everything they do, especially when it’s harmful or dangerous for them. Always try to make it clear that you want the best for them. If you aren’t supportive of something, explain to them why. Be honest with them. For instance, in a negative situation, you could say, "Whitney, I'm your best friend and I want the best for you. I would never be unsupportive of any of your choices unless I felt truly worried about you. I honestly feel like your new boyfriend is a bad influence on you..." Make sure that you remember important dates as well, such as anniversaries, birthdays, and other special dates in your relationship. Be there for them, even when you aren’t asked. If you see a friend struggling, do what you can to help them through it. For instance, if your friend is failing a subject in school, don’t just sit back and watch. Offer to help them with their homework and study with them. If you step in to help them with something when the chips are down, without even being asked, they will feel like they can count on you.

SUMMARY: Avoid gossiping. Keep your promises. Be supportive. Help them.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Prior to steaming, always wash your spinach. You want to make sure you get off any contaminants prior to consuming the plant. Place the spinach in a colander and run it under tap water until it's slightly damp. If you don't have a colander, you can simply add the spinach to a bowl and swish it around as you run water over it. Afterwards, you can pat the spinach dry with a clean paper towel. You don't need to get the spinach completely dry, but you should make sure it's not dripping wet. Do not add more than two tablespoons, as there will still be droplets of water on the spinach. Make sure you choose a saucepan that can contain all your spinach. You should not have to cram the spinach into the saucepan. A saucepan that's too small will cause your spinach to not cook evenly throughout.  Set the saucepan over medium heat to cook your spinach. If you can't find a big enough saucepan, you  may have to cook your spinach in two batches. You want to cook your spinach until it's just slightly wilted and soft. This generally takes around five minutes, but may take more or less depending on how much spinach you're cooking. Once your spinach is limp and bright green, you can remove the pan from the heat.  You do not need to cover the spinach while it cooks. However, you should toss it with a pair of tongs to make sure it cooks evenly throughout. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the spinach to a colander. Gently shake the colander over the sink. This should dry out any excess water. If you want, add seasonings to the spinach. Some herbs and lemon juice taste good with steamed spinach. Steamed spinach can work great as a side dish to most meals, and may pair well with something like meat if you need a vegetable. Leftover spinach can be stored in the fridge.
Summary: Wash and dry the spinach. Pour two tablespoons of water into a medium saucepan. Add the spinach. Serve your spinach.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Upon arriving to campus, familiarize yourself with the health services on campus. Healthcare on campus is similar to going to the family doctor, but most campuses provide a wider range of health services to students who are transitioning from being a patient to an independent health consumer.  Inquire about potentially free or discounted products for incontinence. Chances are the nurses on campus have encountered students with similar issues, so don’t feel embarrassed about any questions or issues you may have. If you’d like to avoid having to use a public restroom every day, you may want to request a room with a private bathroom. There is no guarantee that the school will be able to honor your request; however, it’s worth asking about.  You’ll need to involve your doctor from home in the process. School guidelines for submitting such a request vary, so check with them once you’ve been admitted to see what their policy is. Don’t wait until you arrive on campus to make the request. It may be that you feel most comfortable having a space of your own. Again, policies will vary by school, but some require that requests be made yearly for such accommodations. You will also need documentation from your family doctor when submitting the request.  Single rooms tend to fill up fast, so make the request early! Consider what living in a single room will mean for your social life. You may also be asked more questions about your medical condition, if you are living alone.
Summary:
Take advantage of campus health services. Request to have a room with a private bathroom. Inquire about a single dorm.
