Article: In a game of truth or dare, people sometimes joke about what they are daring you to do. Making sure they are serious about the dare could help you avoid embarrassment. Replying with a brief laugh and simply saying, “Are you serious?” is enough to double check. If they say no then you can always tell them you want to take the dare anyway. Ask yourself if you are comfortable kissing someone or not. Remember that it’s okay to say no to a dare. If you feel uncomfortable kissing the person, then don’t do it. It’s better to say no than to do something you don’t want to do. Since kissing involves two people, you need to make sure it’s okay with the person you were dared to kiss. They may not feel comfortable with it, even if you want to do it. Asking permission is called “gaining consent.” In situations like this, it is the right choice. Kissing someone without asking them first can actually be considered sexual assault.By asking their permission, you make the situation safe for both of you.

Ask the person who dared you if they are serious about it. Decide if you want to accept the dare. Ask the person if you can kiss them.
Article: This will raise the alkalinity of the water by 10 ppm. Adjust the values to determine how much baking soda you need to add for the volume of your pool. For example, if you want to go from 60 ppm to 80 ppm in a 10,000 US gal (38,000 L) pool, you would add 2.5 pounds (1,100 g) of baking soda. Adding too much baking soda to the water at a time could raise the pH of the water. Let the baking soda settle and mix with the water before adding more. If you need to raise the alkalinity further, wait until the next day to add more baking soda. Use a circular motion as you pour the baking soda. It may cause some cloudiness in the water initially. The baking soda will sink to the bottom of the pool and settle before it begins mixing. To avoid cloudiness in the water, pour the baking soda directly into the skimmer. Your pool water needs to pump and circulate through a full cycle before you retest the water. Check the alkalinity using your test kit.  Let the pool run for a full pump cycle, which takes about 10 hours, before swimming. If your alkalinity levels are still off after the first baking soda treatment, add more baking soda to reach the desired ppm.

Add 1.25 lb (570 g) of baking soda per 10,000 US gal (38,000 L) of water. Use only 2 pounds (910 g) of baking soda per day. Pour the baking soda into the deep end of the pool. Retest the water after 10 hours and make further adjustments if necessary.
Article: If you're cutting the rigid foam for a specific project, measure the length and width you will need it to be. Compare these dimensions to the length and width that your rigid foam insulation currently has to make sure it's long and wide enough. For more precise measurements, check the length and width 2-3 times. Place your straightedge ruler on the rigid foam insulation and use it as a guide while you make the mark. Draw a line with your permanent marker along the side of your straightedge, then check the marking to make sure it's precise. It's better for your markings to be a few inches or centimeters too large at first than too small. You can always cut more foam later, if necessary. Keeping the board flat while you cut will help you make a precise cut. If you don't have a work table, find a flat and smooth surface for cutting your foam insulation. Do not cut rigid foam insulation on decorative tables unless you lay out a protective barrier, like a knife block. You risk accidentally scratching the table. Use rubber clamps to secure both sides of the insulation to the work surface. Secure the straightedge alongside the cutting line to help you make a precise incision. This will keep the rigid foam insulation from shifting or sliding while you cut it.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Measure your cut with a straightedge ruler. Mark your cutting line on the foam with a permanent marker. Lay the rigid foam insulation on a flat surface. Clamp the rigid foam to the flat surface.
