In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Rotary veneers are what plywood is made out of and generally produce an appearance that many people don't like. However, they can also come in larger sheets and may be the only option for very large projects. Sliced veneer looks like normal lumber, and allows you to get really beautiful grain detail. You can get random sets of veneers, or you can get book-matched sets. In book matched sets, you get the pieces that were cut one next to the other, so that the grain patterns match up. This can be used to create beautiful designs. However, unmatched sets may look more "natural". You can get veneer sheets that have adhesive already applied to one side. These are the easiest to place. If you get regular veneer, however, you'll need to use the application method discussed in the other section. These are generally applied just like a sticker, but you should read the included instructions to see if that particular manufacturer requires special steps. Veneers are attached to a substrate (or base material). Usually this is either another wood (if you are veneering, for example, panels on doors or cabinets) or it is a cheaper material altogether, such as MDF. These man-made materials are probably the best option, since they usually allow you to save the most money. You can use yellow or carpenter's glue if you want to. If you live in a very dry environment with little humidity, these will work perfectly fine. If you live in a humid environment, however, these glues can cause your veneers to wander. It's better to use a proper veneering glue. Many other methods of veneering use these glues. Be wary of those methods, especially if you live in a humid environment.
Summary: Choose a rotary vs sliced veneer. Choose a random or book-matched veneer. Choose your application method. Choose your substrate. Choose a glue.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Think about why your boyfriend wants to break up and have empathy for him.  Is his dealing with a stressful situation with family or having a hard time with work or school? Try to be there for him instead of nagging him about being with you or spending time together.  Try having dinner ready when he gets home a few nights a week.  Offer to help him with any projects he might have. Placing yourself in his shoes may help you figure out why he's behaving the way he is. It may also help you find a solution. If your relationship is good, there shouldn’t be issues every day.  But, good relationships also mean that you have the space to talk about the issues you do have in a healthy way.  When these problems arise, speak to your partner about them calmly and with love.  You can say something like, “It bothers me that you won’t go to my cousin’s wedding with me.  I love you and want you to spend more time with me and my family.” Urge your partner to do the same, and to speak up when issues arise so that you want work on them. Neither of you should bottle up frustrations. If you've been doing things that bother your boyfriend, consider stopping them.  You might find that convincing him to stay with you is simple if you make some changes to your behavior.  Work to be a better partner for him everyday.  For instance, always be honest with him.  Honesty is fundamental to any relationship.  If you are a bit selfish, stop to think from his perspective before asking for things. Don't give in if he is asking for unreasonable things. For instance, if he doesn't like your friends and wants you to stop seeing them, he's being controlling. Consider your boyfriend’s behavior.  Does he break up with you often? Does he refuse to compromise even in small ways?  He might be manipulating you by asking to break up just so he can control you.  Get out of this relationship now so he can’t continue this behavior. If he really cared about the relationship, he would try to find solutions to problems, rather than threaten to break up in order to get his way. Maybe you and your boyfriend have been together for so long that things feel really routine and boring.  Spice it up a bit!  Surprise him with a date night and come looking your best. Flirt with him and lean in for a long kiss when you’re in the movies or watching TV. Try doing something new with him, such as taking a dance class or a painting class. Anything that gets the two of you working together would help. Space is crucial to any relationship’s success.  Even if he’s still on the fence about breaking up with you, create some distance.   Don’t always answer his calls and don’t respond immediately to his texts. Plan nights out with your friends and take up a new hobby to occupy some of your time.  Don't use this as a means to manipulate him or control him. There are some instances where answering that call would be necessary. Rather than spending every day together, try spending every weekend together instead. You don't need to be together 24/7 in order to be a couple. Giving each other space might help you miss each other and grow closer as a result. If you spend too much time together, you might get bored of each other.
Summary: Put yourself in his shoes. Check-in when there are issues. Adjust any behaviors you agree are bad. Break up with him if he threatens to break up with you all the time. Reignite the spark. Give each other some space.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Libraries are traditionally quiet zones for reading, studying, and other activities that require concentration. Keep your voice down any time you're in a library, and whisper whenever possible.  While it's not required to whisper anymore, a loud voice can easily disturb others. If you run into someone you know, take the conversation outside. Many libraries have lobbies or other designated areas where conversation is allowed. Many libraries have rooms or even floors set aside for study groups. Ask a librarian if there is a space like this where your group can talk together at a normal volume. You may be tempted to switch your phone to vibrate instead of silent, but vibrating phones can be just as distracting as ringing phones. If you need to answer a phone call, step outside the library or move into the lobby.  Many libraries now have cubbies designated for talking on cellphones. A good option is to keep your phone on vibrate if you're expecting an important call. Just make sure to silence it right away when it starts buzzing. Many people enjoy listening to music while reading or studying. Using headphones will limit distraction of noisy music, but the sound tends to escape if the volume is too high. Turn down the volume so the music doesn't escape from your headphones and irritate others. Use headphones if you need to listen to audio files. Just check the volume first to make sure sound doesn't escape. Many libraries don't allow food, except in designated areas. Check the rules before bringing food into any particular library. If you do bring snacks, try not to eat while in the library. Few things are more distracting than loud munching.  If you plan on being in the library for a long time and absolutely must bring snacks, choose foods that aren't crunchy or smelly. Granola bars or string cheese might be good choices.  Schedule regular snack breaks where you can leave the library for a bit. This will give your brain a break and keep you from disturbing others with your snacking.  Drinks are allowed in the library as long as they are in a covered container, such as a water bottle with a cap. If you do bring snacks with you, try to eat them away from books and computers, and in a non-carpeted area. This will keep crumbs from getting smashed into the carpet, books, or keyboards. Smacking on gum can be particularly distracting, so leave the gum at home. The librarian may ask you to spit out your gum if you don't throw it away yourself.
Summary:
Speak in whispers or hushed tones. Turn your cellphone on silent. Keep the volume low if you're using headphones. Eat your meals outside the library. Toss out your gum before entering the library.
