Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know when to take the elevator instead. Prepare yourself to enter the escalator. Step carefully onto the escalator. Plan your practice time.

Answer: If you are using a cane, a walker, or a wheelchair, it’s not safe for you to ride an escalator. Similarly, if you have a lot of rolling luggage or have a wheeled stroller, don’t use an escalator. If your luggage or stroller overbalances, they will fall over and roll. This could injure any children in the stroller and injure the passengers behind you. Stand in front of the escalator with your bags and packages grasped firmly in one hand. If there are any children with you, hold them with one hand. It’s important to have a hand free to hold the handrail when you enter the escalator. Make sure you’re entering the correct escalator – the stairs should be moving in the direction of your path, not towards you. Stand near the center of the steps and extend a foot forward. Aim for the middle of the step. Extend your free hand and grab the handrail as you move. Once you step onto the escalator, quickly step up with your other foot as well. Keep a firm grip on the handrail. Be especially cautious when wearing Crocs. Soft shoes such as Crocs can be dangerous when riding escalators as they can get easily stuck in moving parts. If you wear soft shoes onto the escalator, it is especially important to stand on the center of the step to avoid injury. If you’re nervous about using an escalator and need some time to gather your courage, consider practicing early in the morning or late at night. Hopefully there will be less people during these hours, allowing you to take all the time you need without inconveniencing anyone. Similarly, have a friend stand behind you and usher others away to give you more time to ready yourself.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Keep her calm. Stick to your normal routine. Gather your supplies. Place a non-slip surface in the tub.

Answer: When dealing with a pregnant dog, it's even more important than usual to make sure she stays calm. Her extra weight might make her harder to hold down if she starts to struggle. Pet her in long strokes and speak to her in a soft voice. Do everything you can to relax her.  If you think she might try to escape, get another person to help you. More hands means more petting! If your dog is afraid of baths, don’t force her. Just brush through her coat instead, trying to get as much dirt off the fur as you can. It will be easier on you both. Allow wet mud to dry into dirt before brushing her. Even if you’re feeling worried about bathing her because she's pregnant, don't let her pick up on your anxiety. Act like it's a completely normal bath, and don't change the routine at all. For example, if you usually lift your dog into the bathtub, give her the bath in her normal place. Don't decide to spray her with a hose outside instead because you're afraid of lifting her. Keep treats on hand to reward her for calm behavior or coax her into the tub. You'll also need shampoo for the bath and several towels to dry her off before letting her loose in your home. You can put one of the towels on the edge of the tub to stop some of the water from splashing onto the floor at your feet.  Use a nice, mild oatmeal shampoo for dogs that won't irritate her skin. You're going to get wet, too, so dress down in clothes you don't mind getting dirty. You know from experience that bathtubs can get slippery when you add water and soap to the mix. A non-slip mat will help your dog keep her footing while she's getting her bath. You can find non-slip mats in any department store or online.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Prepare your dough. Add your filling. Seal your pockets. Brush them with egg wash. Bake your pockets.

Answer: Dust a surface with flour. Use a rolling pin to roll each sheet of pastry puff into a square that's roughly 12 x 12 inches (30.5 x 30.5 cm). Take a knife or pizza cutter and divide each square into nine smaller squares of equal size. First, dice up your pepperoni slices and mushrooms. Put those in a large mixing bowl and add your mozzarella and a ½ teaspoon of Italian seasonings. Stir them up until they're evenly mixed. Place equal amounts of filling on each pastry square. Use your spoon to drag the filling diagonally from one corner to its opposite. Brush water over the edges of each square. Fold them in half diagonally, with the spread-out filling along each one's crease, so they look like triangles. Pinch the wet edges together where they meet to seal each pocket. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set your triangles on that. Then, in a small bowl, crack and whisk your eggs along with 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) of water. Take a pastry brush and cover each triangle with the egg wash. Then dust them with the remaining Italian seasonings. Set your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (204 degrees Celsius). While that heats up, place your baking sheets in the refrigerator to keep the pastry chilled in the meantime. Once the oven's ready, transfer the baking sheets and cook for about 15 to 18 minutes, or until the pastry turns a golden color.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Microwave the shrimp on high heat for one to two minutes. Steam seasoned shrimp on the stove. Cook breaded or coconut shrimp in the oven. Reheat shrimp in the skillet.

Answer:
Arrange your shrimp on a microwave-safe plate, keeping them separated in a single layer without any overlap. Add a splash of water to the dish and then cover it with plastic wrap. Microwave your shrimp on high heat for one to two minutes.  If your shrimp aren't hot enough, you can microwave them for an additional 30 seconds or so. Microwaved shrimp will be very hot, so it's important to let them cool before serving them. If your shrimp has already been seasoned, steaming helps preserve the flavor. Fill a pot with water and place a steamer or colander inside the pot. Place your shrimp in the steamer or colander. Then, place the pot over the stove and bring the water to a boil. Let the shrimp cook until they start to smell fragrant. Avoid stacking shrimp too high in the steamer and make sure they don't touch the water. If your shrimp are coated with breading or coconut, they're best reheated in the oven. Wrap the shrimp loosely in foil and place them on a baking tray. Cook the shrimp for 15 minutes at 300 degrees Fahrenheit (about 149 degrees Celsius). Add enough oil to coat the bottom of a skillet or frying pan and place it over the stove. Add your shrimp in an even layer. Cook the shrimp for two to three minutes on each side.
