INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When moving a hive longer distances, it is important for all of your bees to be contained inside. For best results, plan to move your hive during the night or before dawn. Staple a piece of #8 hardware cloth over the entrance to your hive. If the bees are becoming agitated, use smoke to keep them calm. Avoid leaving the hive sealed for longer than 1-2 hours, especially during hot weather. Slide a ratchet strap around the sides of your hive from bottom to top. Thread the strap through the bottom of the ratchet until it feels taught. Crank the ratchet until the hive feels solid and secure. Slide a dolly under your hive, tilt it back slightly, and roll the hive to your vehicle. With the help of a friend, lift your hive into a truck bed or van. It is important to keep the hive as level as possible during this process. Use additional ratchet straps or rope to secure the hive in the vehicle. You want to be sure the hive will not tip over or slide around during the move. Remove any rope or ratchet straps that held the hive in your vehicle. With the help of a friend, place the hive on the ground. Use a dolly to deposit the hive in the correct place. Remove the ratchet straps and hardware cloth. After you move the hive, your bees will need to completely reorient themselves and establish new foraging patterns. Do not disturb the bees for 3-5 days after moving the hive.

SUMMARY: Plan to move your hive when it is dark outside. Block the entrance to your hive. Secure your hive with a ratchet strap. Lift the hive into your vehicle. Secure your hive in your vehicle. Place the hive in the new location. Leave the hive alone for a few days to let the bees readjust.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: The bristles of a toothbrush may aggravate your symptoms, so opt for an extra soft toothbrush. Brush after every meal, and before bedtime. This will minimize bacteria and reduce oral ulcers. It will also reduce the risk of the ulcers becoming infected.  Avoid toothpastes with alcohol in them, which could irritate your mouth. Use a fluoride toothpaste that is otherwise as plain as possible — look for one without added color or bleaching agents. If your mouth gets sore when brushing, soften the toothbrush with warm water prior to using it. In addition to brushing your teeth, regular flossing can help with sores. It can cut down on bacteria, lessening the likelihood of a mouth infection. Make sure to floss your teeth every day. If your gums bleed, do not floss in areas that are bleeding. Floss only between teeth where the gums do not bleed. Check with your oncologist that this is normal — you may wish to speak with your dentist as well to confirm your gums are healthy. Rinse your mouth after you eat, and several times throughout the day. This dislodges many food particles and prevents unnecessary irritation. Stick to solutions made with baking soda and salt. Commercial mouthwashes may hurt your mouth.  You can make a mouthwash using 1/4 teaspoon of salt or a teaspoon of baking soda mixed into an 8-ounce cup of warm water. Baking soda can create an alkaline oral pH, which helps sores heal faster. After rinsing your mouth with your solution, rinse it again with plain water. If you wear dentures, wash them after every meal to avoid introducing bacteria or irritants. If your dentures bother you, you may want to skip wearing them until your mouth sores have healed.

SUMMARY: Brush your teeth gently after each meal. Floss each day. Rinse your mouth throughout the day. Keep dentures clean.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: " This fairly standard phrase is a neutral way to ask someone to be quiet without any insulting connotations. You may, for instance, hear teachers use this to quiet students during study time. "Shizukani" is pronounced "shih-zoo-kah-knee." The first syllable uses the short i sound (as in "pit"), while the last syllable uses the long e sound (as in "tea"). Note that the last syllable here doesn't have the extra-long emphasis used in "yakamashī."  This phrase is written "静かに". This option is still a little abrupt and forceful to use with strangers, so you'll probably want to opt for the phrase below if you want to be extra-delicate. " This is one of the most polite ways you can ask someone else to be quiet — for instance, it's perfect for hushing noisy people around you in a movie theater. "Shizukani" is pronounced exactly as in the step above. "Shite" is pronounced "she-tay" (use the long e sound as in tea for the first syllable). "Kudusai is pronounced "koo-dah-sigh." Once again, the u sound is made without moving the lips forward.  This phrase is written "静か に して ください". Remember the word "kudasai" — it's Japanese for "please," so you'll end up using it a lot if you learn more common Japanese phrases. If you ask someone to be quiet politely and they do quiet down, don't forget to say thanks! "Arigatō" is an all-purpose Japanese way to say "thank you." It's pronounced "ah-ree-gah-toe." Use the delicate Japanese r sound made with a flick of your tongue described above. You'll also want to hold the final o sound a little longer than normal (just like you did for the ī in "yakamashī")  This phrase is written "ありがとう". For "thank you very much," you can say "arigatou gozaimasu." "Gozaimasu" is pronounced "go-zye-moss." Note that the second syllable rhymes with "eye" and the u at the end is not pronounced. This phrase is written "ありがとう ございます".

SUMMARY:
Say "shizukani" for "be quiet. Say "shizukani shite kudasai" for "please be quiet. Respond with "arigatō" when you get what you ask for.
