INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Try out the popular Skype service to make video or audio calls to anyone in the world who has Skype on their phone or computer. You can also make calls to any regular phone number, whether or not there is an associated Skype account, for a small fee.  Download Skype for free on a smartphone, tablet, or computer to immediately begin calling other Skype accounts for free. If you want to use Skype to call a regular U.S. phone number, add Skype Credit to your account to pay as you go, or select a monthly subscription to save on frequent calls.  Make sure you are connected to a computer or phone with high-speed internet when you make calls from Skype, as the audio and video quality will be better and more reliable with a good connection. Note that if you use a mobile app for Skype on a phone or tablet that is not connected to WiFi, you will incur data charges. Check with your phone or SIM card provider on these charges, or purchase a plan with unlimited or a large amount of data if you plan to use phone apps frequently without an internet connection. Use another service with audio and/or video calls available, such as Google Hangouts, Viber, or WhatsApp. Like Skype, calls through these services are free to any other members of the service and have a small fee for calling regular landlines and cell phones.  Use these services on a computer or through free apps for your mobile phone or tablet. Remember that if your phone is not connected to the internet, you will incur data charges for the calls you make on the network. Try out different services to see which one you like the best, as they all have slightly different features. Or, you might choose an app based on whether your U.S. contacts also have it or can get it, because then your calls to them are free. Load contacts, phone numbers, or credit (if applicable) for calls on an internet phone service or app before you use it to call the U.S. from the UK. Familiarize yourself with the process of making a call, the quality of the audio or video, and any other features so that you are ready to use it without any problems.  If you can, test out the app before you are abroad in the UK to get familiar with it. Make sure you have a good internet connection and, if possible, use the same device you’ll use to connect while abroad. You might want to be prepared with a reliable microphone and pair of headphones for making your calls from the UK, particularly if you are using an older computer that doesn’t have a microphone or speakers built in, or you want to be able to make hands-free mobile calls.

SUMMARY: Use Skype for voice or video calls. Try other calling apps. Test out a service before you use it.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Many online assessments claim to measure your emotional intelligence. Generally, you answer a series of multiple-choice questions, and then you're presented with your results. You can try tests like the ones on this site: http://www.eiconsortium.org/measures/measures.html Some tests are more reliable than others. The tests on this link have had a substantial amount of research performed on them, so they at least have a bit more information to back them up. One type of test asks you questions about how you view yourself. It's the simplest approach because you can do it all by yourself in less than an hour online. However, it doesn't necessarily give you the whole picture by itself. For instance, this type of test might ask you to rate a series of statements like "I often feel upset. True, Somewhat True, or Not True." Another option, which works well in addition to self-reporting, is asking others to rate your emotional intelligence. Basically, they answer similar questions about you to those you answered about yourself, giving you an idea of how other people perceive you. For instance, the test might make a statement such as "This person is able to understand the emotions of others. True, Somewhat True, or Not True." A third approach is using the test to actually check your skills, rather than just asking you to talk about them. It's beneficial because it asks you to exhibit your emotional intelligence, which can then be measured. This type of test might present you with situations and give you responses to choose from. Alternatively, it might present you with a person's face and ask you to guess the person's emotions. Emotional intelligence is not as easy to measure as other types of intelligence, but their are common traits that you can observe in yourself. These traits indicate that you have a high applied emotional intelligence. They include:  Thinking about emotions Pausing Trying to control your thoughts Growing from criticism Being authentic Showing empathy Praising others Apologizing for your errors Keeping your commitments

SUMMARY: Take an online test. Choose a self-reporting test to learn how you see yourself. Ask others to assess you through testing. Try an abilities test. Watch for behaviors consistent with high emotional intelligence.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Visit your dermatologist and discuss your complexion problems. Based on your specific issues, your dermatologist will be able to prescribe different medications to help even your skin.  Some medications may be taken as a pill and help control hormonal imbalances which can lead to poor skin complexion. Medicated creams are available through your dermatologist to apply to your skin. These can deal with problems such as age or sun spots and acne or acne scarring. Be sure to ask your doctor about possible side-effects from medication for your skin. These help fight age spots and wrinkles, but can only be performed by a dermatologist. Keep in mind that this might be a bit expensive and may not be covered by insurance.  A laser treatment works by sending short, strong pulses of light to remove layers of skin. Because of this, it is sometimes also called a laser peel. Avoid getting a laser treatment if you have acne, as this could worsen the condition. Recovery from a laser treatment takes up to two weeks. This is the time in which the skin will regrow and all discoloration or scabbing has disappeared. This is a combination of a peel and exfoliant that helps to remove dead skin and discoloration. These are available from your dermatologist and some spas.  Microdermabrasion is essentially “sanding” away skin with a peel and a special brush or tool. Therefore, it works best for dark spots and dull skin. Dermabrasion, similar to microdermabrasion, works primarily to remove scarring. It is only safe for people with fair skin however, as it can worsen scarring in dark skin. Only consider dermabrasion as an option if you struggle with scarring from a skin disease, significant acne, or accidents.

SUMMARY:
Get a prescription for skin-clearing medication. Get a laser treatment. Get a microdermabrasion session.
