SUMMARY: Warm up your fingers.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If your MySQL server isn't currently online, you can't create a database. You can check the server's status by opening MySQL Workbench, selecting your server, and looking at the "Server Status" indicator on the "Administration - Server Status" tab. This path will vary depending on whether you're using a Windows computer or a Mac:   Windows — Copy C:/Program Files/MySQL/MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE/ making sure to replace the last folder's name with the most current MySQL name.  Mac — Copy /usr/local/mysql-8.0.13-osx10.13-x86_64/ making sure to replace the last folder's name with the most current MySQL folder name. You'll use Command Prompt on a Windows computer, while Mac users will open Terminal. Type cd and a space, paste in the path to the installation folder, and press ↵ Enter. For example, you'd do the following on most Windows computers:  cd C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 8.0 CE For example, to open the login command for a user named "me", you'd type in the following and press ↵ Enter:  mysql -u me -p Type in the password for your MySQL user account, then press ↵ Enter. This will log you in and connect your command line application to the MySQL prompt.  You should see the "MySQL>" tag appear your command line application. From this point on, any commands you enter will be processed through the MySQL command line app.  Understand how to enter MySQL commands. MySQL commands must be entered with a semicolon (;) immediately after the last part of the command, though you can also enter the command, type a semicolon, and press ↵ Enter again.

SUMMARY: Make sure that your MySQL server is connected. Copy the installation folder's path. Open your computer's command line. Change to the MySQL installation folder's directory. Open the MySQL login command. Enter your account password.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Transfer your soup into a tall thermos while it is still piping hot. Secure the lid tightly as soon as you're finished putting your food inside. Eat your food within 4 hours so it doesn't cool down and develop bacteria.  Look on the thermos' packaging to determine how long you can safely store food inside. Thermoses are typically only sized for a single serving. Similar to the bags used for pizza delivery, thermal bags allow you to store dishes so they retain heat while you're on the go. Cover your hot dish with a lid or foil wrap before securing it in the bag. Use a thermal bag for a maximum of 3 hours before serving your dish. Thermal bags can be purchased at big box stores or at your local kitchen specialty store. Reusable and disposable bags are available. Find an insulated lunchbox or cooler that can plug into the cigarette lighter jack inside your car. Fill the cooler with hot food and plug it in as you travel. The cooler will use the energy from your car to keep the food at a safe temperature.  Only have the cooler plugged in as your car is running so you don't drain your car's battery. Check the voltage requirement on the bag to see your cigarette lighter can output that much energy. If not, you may cause the cooler to short out.

SUMMARY: Keep soups and stews in an insulated thermos. Purchase insulated thermal bags for larger dishes. Get a portable food warmer to keep foods warm in your car.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your German Shepherd may have a hard time pumping blood throughout his body if his aorta is deformed. The aorta is the main artery leaving the heart. If the valve into the aorta is narrowed, as in AS, a backpressure is created in the heart making your dog work harder to circulate blood. Medication is the most common treatment for AS, which treats the irregular heart rhythm and may include antibiotics to prevent infection. Surgery is not recommended. Your German Shepherd may have a heart deformity that's causing a heart murmur or another health condition (like problems eating or with blood circulation). These deformities may include:  Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA): This is a temporary blood vessel in a fetal puppy that should close shortly after he's born. If it stays open, blood may bypass your dog's lungs. Vascular ring anomaly (also known as persistent right aortic arch): This is another blood vessel that should close before your dog is born. If it stays open after birth, the vessel traps your dog's esophagus which makes it hard for him to swallow food down into his stomach.  Mitral or tricuspid valve disease: These valves separate the heart's atria from the ventricles. If they don't fit perfectly together, then blood can leak in the wrong direction, causing a heart murmur. If your dog has abnormalities in the heart muscle itself, he may have dilated or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. With Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), the heart muscle tires and becomes baggy. With hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the heart muscle thickens, causing the chambers to get smaller and hold less blood. Treatment usually focuses on improving your dog's diet and exercise habits. Most vets don't recommend surgery unless your German Shepherd develops congestive heart failure. Older German Shepherds are prone to a vascular tumor (hemangiosarcoma) that attacks the vessels lining the heart. This tumor is the most common type in dogs and usually isn't noticed until it gets big enough to cause complications. Your dog may have abdominal swelling, irregular heartbeat, and anemia. Treatment for hemangiosarcoma is difficult. Veterinarians usually recommend chemotherapy and possibly draining the site of the tumor. Because the tumor is on the heart, treatment may only be able to add a few months to your dog's life.

SUMMARY:
Consider if your German Shepherd has aortic stenosis (AS). Think about whether or not your dog has heart defects. Think about if your dog has cardiomyopathy. Consider if your dog has a tumor.
