Problem: Article: There’s nothing wrong with going to a party or hanging out with friends, as long as you don’t feel forced into it. Don’t succumb to peer pressure because you want to fit in or be cool.  Before you start trying to balance your social life with your academics, make sure the things that comprise your social life are activities you actually want to take part in. Focus on things that bring you enjoyment and a welcome distraction from your schoolwork. Try some new activities. For example, you could try signing up for a Zumba class, or take a watercolor painting class. You can try new activities with friends or on your own. Make sure the people you allow in your life are supportive of your academic goals. If they make you feel guilty for not hanging out with them, they’re not being supportive of what you’re trying to achieve.  Talk to them about your goals, focusing on finding a middle ground between the involvement they expect of you and your academic schedule. If they seem more focused on getting what they want and not helping you achieve your goals, you might have to start asking yourself if they’re a real friend. Try out some new activities to meet people who share your interests and who may also make supportive friends. You might find that some of the clubs and organizations in your school have the kinds of activities you want to participate in. Joining a school club gives you the ability to spend time with like-minded students, building relationships that can help you during your academic career as well as giving you a needed social break. Additionally, since club activities often follow a fixed schedule, it’ll be easier to fit them in around the schedule you’ve set for your schoolwork.  If you want to stay in good health, you might want to join a sports team or a fitness-focused club. Clubs centered around artistic pursuits, such as sculpture or painting, can help you diversify your skillset while expressing yourself. Clubs focusing on math and the sciences can help you improve your skills in a way that’s directly useful for your schoolwork. Keep in mind that you can always start a club of your own if you can’t find a club that you want to join. While a teacher can help you with your schoolwork, a guidance counselor or academic advisor can help you with the overall balancing of your schoolwork and social life. They can serve as a good reference point for any questions you may have. Don’t hesitate to turn to them for help with all aspects of your academic and social life:  Guidance counselors are usually trained to help you set academic goals, study more efficiently as well as helping you resolve conflicts with family and friends. Some guidance counselors also provide therapy and counseling services that can prove helpful as you straighten out your social life.
Summary: Make time only for activities you want to participate in. Hang out with supportive friends. Join a school club or organization. Speak to a guidance counselor or academic advisor.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: A foot soak in lemon juice for about 10 minutes is a great way to remove excess dead and dry skin from your feet.  The acid in the lemon juice helps make the dead and dry skin easier to remove.  After your feet have soaked for the 10 minutes, use a pumice stone or foot file to remove the dead and dry skin. Foot razors/shavers are available for purchase at many drug and department stores, but are not recommended by doctors.  They have also become illegal to use in a spa setting in many states.  The reason is that they can cause nicks and cuts on your feet which can very easily become infected - especially in a spa environment. Put a spoonful of olive oil in a small bottle with a lid.  Add a few drops of lemon or lavender oil to the bottle.  Place the lid tightly on the bottle and shake until the liquid inside the bottle turns thick and milky.  Apply to your feet, especially your heels, to help moisturize your skin.  You can store the bottle for future use, just remember to shake it each time. Start by having a bath or shower where you wash your feet, or wash your feet on their own.  Dry your feet off with a towel, including between your toes.  Apply a layer of vegetable oil all over your feet and then put on a thick pair of socks.  Go to bed and leave the socks on.  You may find your dry feet feeling a lot better in only a few days. The oil may stain fabric, like your socks, so choose a pair of socks you don't mind if they get stained by the oil.  The socks will also help prevent your sheets from being stained by the oil. Combine 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of Vaseline (or a similar product) and the juice from 1 lemon into a bowl, then mix the two ingredients together.  Either have a bath or shower where you wash your feet, or just wash your feet on their own.  Dry your feet completely with a towel.  Apply ALL the mixture to both your feet, then put on a pair of thick wool socks.  Go to bed.  In the morning, take off the socks and scrub the excess dead skin off your feet. Wool socks are used in this case as they won't allow the mixture to soak through and stain your bedsheets.  Choose socks that you don't mind if they get this oily mixture on them. First, melt the wax in a large bowl in the microwave (or a double boiler if you have one).  Add an equal amount of mustard oil to the melted wax. Check to make sure that the wax is safely warm to the touch before dipping one foot into the bowl and covering your foot with the wax mixture.  Take your foot out of the bowl and allow the wax to dry, then dip the same foot again.  Wrap your foot in plastic wrap, or put it inside a plastic bag.  Repeat the same procedure on your other foot.  Sit for about 15 minutes, then remove the wax and plastic. Mustard oil helps to strengthen and moisturize the skin on your feet.

SUMMARY: Soak your feet in lemon juice. Make your own cracked-heel cream. Oil your feet before bed. Create your own overnight foot mask. Try paraffin wax to moisturize your feet.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: To add uncertain measurements, simply add the measurements and add their uncertainties:  (5 cm ± .2 cm) + (3 cm ± .1 cm) = (5 cm + 3 cm) ± (.2 cm +. 1 cm) = 8 cm ± .3 cm To subtract uncertain measurements, simply subtract the measurements while still adding their uncertainties:  (10 cm ± .4 cm) - (3 cm ± .2 cm) = (10 cm - 3 cm) ± (.4 cm +. 2 cm) = 7 cm ± .6 cm To multiply uncertain measurements, simply multiply the measurements while adding their RELATIVE uncertainties (as a percentage): Calculating uncertainties with multiplication does not work with absolute values (like we had in addition and subtraction), but with relative ones. You get the relative uncertainty by dividing the absolute uncertainty with a measured value and multiplying by 100 to get percentage.  For example:  (6 cm ± .2 cm) = (.2 / 6) x 100 and add a % sign. That is 3.3 % Therefore: (6 cm ± .2 cm) x (4 cm ± .3 cm) = (6 cm ± 3.3% ) x (4 cm ± 7.5%) (6 cm x 4 cm) ± (3.3 + 7.5) = 24 cm ± 10.8 % = 24 cm ± 2.6 cm To divide uncertain measurements, simply divide the measurements while adding their RELATIVE uncertainties:The process is the same as in multiplication!  (10 cm ± .6 cm) ÷ (5 cm ± .2 cm) = (10 cm ± 6%) ÷ (5 cm ± 4%) (10 cm ÷ 5 cm) ± (6% + 4%) = 2 cm ± 10% = 2 cm ± 0.2 cm To increase an uncertain measurement exponentially, simply raise the measurement to the designated power, and then multiply the relative uncertainty by that power:  (2.0 cm ± 1.0 cm)3 = (2.0 cm)3 ± (50%) x 3 = 8.0 cm3 ± 150 % or  8.0 cm3 ±12 cm3
Summary:
Add uncertain measurements. Subtract uncertain measurements. Multiply uncertain measurements. Divide uncertain measurements. Increase an uncertain measurement exponentially.
