Article: Don't assume your man has all the traits of a Virgo just because he was born between August 23 and September 22. While it can be fun and interesting to take someone's sign into account, don't trust astrology over what you can learn with your own eyes and ears. Observe and talk to the man you are interested in and get to know his personality, and see if it fits with what you are looking for in a partner. It should also be said that you shouldn't have to change yourself or pretend to be something you're not in hopes of attracting a Virgo. Be yourself, and evaluate whether or not this person's values and interests align with yours.  You might make a game of this with your man. Say something like, "I think astrology is really fun, and I noticed you are a Virgo. They're supposed to be intellectual, a little conservative, polite, hardworking, and intense. Do you think any of those apply to you?" Virgos are thought to prefer people who can carry on an intellectual discussion. If this sounds like your man, you may want to read up on what is going on in the world and strike up a conversation about the latest happenings.  Read the news regularly. Try downloading a few apps on your phone, like apps put out by the New York Times, that send you regular updates about recent news stories. Watch the news. Put CNN on in the background while you cook dinner, or turn on a radio show that talks about current events. The "typical" Virgo man is considered serious by nature, so he may be drawn to someone who can get him out of his head. See how he responds to your sense of humor. You should be able to introduce a joke into a situation to lighten the mood.  As you get to know your man's sense of humor, start out with jokes that aren't too edgy or raunchy. If raunchy is your sense of humor, that's fine, and you don't have to change it for him, but it's best to feel things out a little before launch into a naughty limerick or off-color jokes. Start with lighthearted, observational jokes. Work on making jokes about the weather that day, or make cute puns from time to time. It's important to always be respectful to others, and this may be especially important to a Virgo. If you notice your Virgo is somewhat conservative himself, you may find that classic good manners go a long way in attracting a Virgo man.  Remember the manners your parents taught you as a child. Use terms like "please," "thank you," and "excuse me." If you're at a restaurant, take extra care to be courteous to the wait staff. Do not yell or snap when frustrated by the bill or your food. If you are a more boisterous, loud personality, and this seems to offend your conservative partner, think about if this is a partnership you really want. You shouldn't have to change yourself to be with someone, so if the guy would prefer being with someone a little more demure or quiet, he's probably not the one for you. On the other hand, your rambunctious personality may help him loosen up a bit. The important thing is to just be yourself while being respectful of others. Notice if your Virgo is intense and works hard. Someone with this personality may be turned off by people he considers lazy or complacent. If you also work hard in all your pursuits, you and this Virgo may be a good match.  If you have a job, for example, strive to be the best employee you can. Pay close attention to small details, be on time every day, and use downtime to learn more about your company. This can be particularly helpful if you're trying to attract a hard worker in your office. Work hard in other areas. Keep a neat home and engage in hobbies.

Article: Better communication skills can help avoid a repeat of the silent treatment if it turns out that a miscommunication caused it in the first place. There are a few simple things you can do to improve your communication skills.  Stop and listen to what your friends are saying in a conversation, rather than rushing in to say what you want. Be honest in your conversations. If you don't want to do something, say so. If something bothers you, tell them about it. Pay attention to what they don't say. You can figure out a lot about how a person is feeling by their body language. If they don't make eye contact, seem distracted, or stand with their hands folded, they are likely upset. If it seems apparent that they are using the silent treatment to control or manipulate you, don't try again and again to fix things between you. After you have confronted the person who is giving you the silent treatment, you have done everything you can. Now, it is up to the other person to step up and begin communicating with you. If they don't, stop trying to talk to them about it. Instead, live your life as normally as possible. The silent treatment indicates that either they don't want to talk to you or they're trying to control you. In both cases, it's probably best to walk away from the relationship. If the person giving you the silent treatment is someone you work with, you probably can't just walk away. Instead, only interact with that person when it's absolutely necessary. Remain professional and calm, but don't go above and beyond in any way in your interactions with them.

Improve your communication skills. Try only once. Be willing to walk away.
Article: After your grill has been heated, turn off two of the burners to create an area of indirect heat. Using a rack to hold your sausages will allow for an even cook throughout by removing them from direct heat. If your grill has a top and bottom rack built in, using the top rack will work just fine. If you do not have a wire or top wrack use a foot of tin foil to create your own. Scrunch a foot of aluminum foil together to make a rope. Round the foil so that it turns into an S-shape and place the sausages on top. Flip the sausages halfway through their cook time. This will allow for even browning on both sides of your sausages and balanced internal temperature. Once they have reached 160 °F (71 °C), place the sausages over direct heat to brown the casing for 3 minutes. Flip the sausages over and allow the other side to brown for another 1 to 3 minutes.  It is not required to brown them for an extra 3 minutes. As long as they are fully cooked in the center, they are good to go! If they do not reach 160 °F (71 °C), close the grill lid and cook them for another 5 minutes before testing again.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Preheat the grill to medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes. Place the sausages on a wire rack over the area of indirect heat. Cook the sausages on the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the middle temperature is at least 160 °F (71 °C).
