Q: The material for the poster board is important to consider, especially if you have to travel to the protest. The main options are foamcore, corrugated plastic and poster board. Regardless of the material chosen, you will need two boards to make the sign.  Poster board is a popular and cheap option. The disadvantage is that it is easily damaged and bent, which can make your sign hard to read. Foamcore is a sturdy option if you want to use mixed media or incorporate any three dimensional elements into your design. Foamcore is a little more expensive than poster board. Corrugated plastic sign blanks are very sturdy and can be obtained at most hardware stores, since they are also used for real estate signs. If you use this material, you will have to attach the sides together with tape. In order to hold your sign at the protest, you will need to attach some type of handle. The main options are 3’’ by 1’’ lumber, dowel, paint sticks and easel backs. You will be securing it to the poster boards with tape, staples, nails or self-sticking glue.  Easel backs are a self-sticking attachment. You can attach one on either side of the sign and fold out the tabs to use as handles. They are self-sticking so you don’t need extra adhesive. These are great for both poster board and foamcore. Single pieces of 3’’ by 1’’ wood are often used, since you can easily staple or nail the base to a single piece of wood. You will need staples or nails to attach this type of handle to your poster boards. If you are using a heavier base like corrugated plastic, this can be a good option. However, wood is not permitted at many protests. Dowel is sometimes used, which is a little easier to hold for long periods in comparison to 3’’ by 1’’ wood. This is a good option for corrugated plastic sign blanks. You will need staples or nails. However, wood is not permitted at many protests. Place one of the two poster boards on the ground. Then, place your handle in the middle of the sign. Attach the handle to the base of the sign using tape, staples or nails. Then, place the second poster board on top.  Alternately, you could just attach one poster board to the handle. You will have a one-sided protest sign. Normally, protest signs have things written on both sides. If you are on a budget, or one of the boards is torn up, it is very simple to make a sign with only one side. You may want to wrap the handle with some tape to make it easier to hold for long periods of time. Wrap hockey tape or electrical tape around the handle to make it easier to hold. If you have a hard time making the handle comfortable to hold, you may benefit from a plan B. For instance, you could attach a string to the top of the sign. When you get tired of holding the handle, you can put the string around your neck.
A: Choose the material for your poster boards. Choose the material for your handle. Attach the handle to the poster boards. Make the handle comfortable.

Q: To stretch out your abs, complete the "Superman" pose. Lie on your stomach and reach your arms forward and your legs backward while lifting them slightly off the ground. You can also try child’s pose to stretch out. This consists of sitting on your heels, bringing your stomach to your thighs, and stretching your arms out in front of you. Perform the same number of sequences each time until you feel ready to add additional sequences. To start feeling results, aim to do at least three sequences three days a week. For faster results, increase the number of times per week you do this exercise. Traditional Pilates involves working through a sequence of moves, and the goal is to perform each move one time correctly, concisely, and with control. One great way to improve your form and to learn other complementary exercises is to attend a class or take lessons. With time and practice, you can learn how to perform the corkscrew properly using the method of Joseph Pilates. Concentrate on perfecting your technique rather than doing numerous repetitions.
A:
Stretch out upon completion. Repeat exercise three times a week. Consider taking Pilates classes.
