INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There is a range of woods and wood finishes that you can select, including bamboo, basswood, faux wood and others. Different types of wood blinds may provide better insulation or may block light more effectively. They may also have better quality finishes. Find blinds with complementary colors or finishes. Bring home samples of colors and textures to test with your current décor. Some blinds also have ladder tapes, which are coverings made of cloth (or other material) that can be tailored to your room with different colors and textures. Consider the type and size of window when selecting blinds. Some windows are very shallow and therefore need thinner blinds. Slats are typically available in 1”, 2” and 2.5” widths. Prices for blinds can range widely, from $70-$120 for an average window size of 36” wide by 60” tall. Custom blinds will be more expensive but may be the best solution for windows with odd measurements or irregularly shaped windows. Many blinds are adjusted using a cord that you pull to swivel the slats open and closed. There are also cordless lift blinds, which do not have cords. These are safer options if you have small children who might pull on cords. You can also choose blinds that resemble shutters from the outside of the window. Some blinds have rounded corners while others have square corners.

SUMMARY: Choose the material for your blinds. Consider the color of the room. Determine the size of blinds you’ll need. Choose the style of blinds.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The Rules of Evidence for your jurisdiction. Realize that at the administrative level (prior to going to trial), these rules will be somewhat relaxed. You should plan to gather evidence that is generally admissible in a court of law. If the agency provides you with a right-to-sue letter, you will be subject to these rules of evidence. These rules will tell you:  The types of physical evidence allowed Things that must be proven about that evidence in order for it to be admitted Different ways to question witnesses in various circumstances Physical evidence can be very persuasive to administrators, judges, and juries. You want to collect and save as much physical evidence as you can. Physical evidence includes:  Documents showing good reviews before the adverse employment action Any demeaning photographs or drawings that were posted or distributed in the workplace Any items that were used to demean, humiliate, or injure the victim Witness testimony is also a form of evidence. If the finder of fact believes the witness, their statements can be persuasive. Witnesses must have experienced the topics of their testimony first hand. They cannot testify about something they only heard about. Potential witnesses would be able to testify that:  They witnessed multiple acts of harassment They saw items that were intended to demean, humiliate, or injure the victim They had conversations with the person who harassed that indicated the harassment was because of the victim’s membership in a protected class

SUMMARY: Read the rules of evidence. Gather physical evidence. Identify witnesses.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If it has been a while since you got your bra size measured, or you have gained or lost a significant amount of weight, it may be worth your while to get your bra resized.  A band that is too tight will dig in and create unflattering bulges across your back.  Your skin may also hurt or ache throughout the day if your bra is not fitted to your body. Go to an undergarment store or undergarment department store and ask for help.  Many stores offer free bra fittings for customers.  They'll measure you and give you an idea of an appropriate size. Also try different types of bras.  Some are actually designed to hold in unwanted bulges and are more comfortable to wear throughout the day. Tight fitting tops, tops that show more skin or those that are made of sheer fabric may enhance the look of bulges around your back.  Choose more flattering clothes to help disguise unwanted bulges on your back.  Unflattering clothing choices can include: tight waistbands, tight bras, jeans that cause muffin top, etc. These can call attention to your back fat. Try to wear clothes that are flattering and that fit you well. By wearing more flattering clothing, people likely won’t even notice any back fat that you do have. You can also wear clothes that will draw attention away from your back. For example, wear a loose top with a bright skirt to guide the eye down, or pair a simple shirt with dangly earrings for the opposite effect. You can purchase undergarments or bras that are designed to lift and smooth your entire upper body.  These may be especially helpful if you want to decrease your back fat for a special occasion.  Look for shapewear that's designed as a bra and upper body shaper.  This will provide you the support you need up top, but smooth out any bumps or bulges on your back and stomach. These types of undergarments can also help clothes fit better and flow more naturally over your body.

SUMMARY: Get your bra refitted. Avoid clothes that dig in at the waist or back. Purchase smoothing shapewear.
