Problem: Article: Your box should fit your item(s) well. It shouldn't be too large, but there should be space for padding on all sides of the item(s). For padding, you might use newspaper, packing peanuts, bubble wrap, and so on.  If you don't have a box, you might be able to salvage one for free from you workplace. Ask your manager if you can take a used box home. Be sure previous addresses are blacked out. Free Priority shipping boxes can be acquired at your local post office. Simply ask the attendant for some free priority boxes. If you take your box to the post office, they'll calculate the cost for you. To do this at home, use a tape measure to find the length, width, and height of the box. Then weigh it on a scale. After that:  Navigate to the USPS homepage in your web browser. Click on the "Calculate Postage" link and input your package information to determine its cost. Select the services you want from the pages following the postage calculator. Some examples of services include next day shipping or package insurance, which cost extra. After you've input your package information and selected services, you should reach a screen asking you to confirm the information. Double check the recipient's address and the return address. Then pay for the postage with a credit or debit card. Once you've paid for shipping, you'll be able to print out your shipping label. Tape this firmly in place on a clearly visible part of the package. When taping, be sure to avoid the bar codes on the label. Tape could affect the bar code reader and delay your package. Packing tape is preferred for sealing your box, but other durable tape, like duct tape, will work in a pinch. Tape the flaps of your box closed so it is firmly fastened shut. If the tape feels loose, use another layer (or a few layers) to reinforce it. For recycled boxes being used again, you might want some additional stability. Tape all edges and seams of the box with tape to prevent it from falling apart or spilling open in transit. Go to the post office home page. You should find a link that says something similar to, "Schedule a Pickup." Select this, and follow the directions to choose a time for your package to be picked up.  Although the USPS offers free pickup, many private shipping providers do not. Be wary of these additional expenses, as they can significantly increase the shipping cost. Generally, you will choose a location for pickup when scheduling. Some examples of locations include in/at your mailbox, or at your front/back door. You can also typically leave instructions to knock on the door/ring the bell, and so on.
Summary: Choose a suitable box and pack your item(s). Calculate the shipping cost. Pay for your shipping. Attach the shipping label. Seal your box. Schedule the pickup for your package.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Unnecessarily spreading around information about your depression can lead to unwanted attention in your social circle. Telling only your best and closest friends is better than telling everyone. Those friends who are honest, responsible, and open with you are trustworthy. Since your spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, or partner are likely closest to you on a daily basis, they will need to know about your depression. If you are starting a new relationship, you are not obligated to talk about your depression. If you live at home, are under the care of a legal guardian, or are a dependent, it will be necessary to tell your guardians about your depression; they will need to help you get professional care. Since family members and guardians have known you all your life, they may be uncomfortable, very concerned, or upset about the information, but they can be the most helpful, too. There are certain instances where employers need to know about your depression. If you are taking a new medication and need time to adjust to it, if you need to adjust your schedule, if you need to be hospitalized, if depression is affecting your work, or if you need to submit benefit claims through your employer, telling your employer is important.  Because mental illness can be a taboo subject, unless your situation fits into one of the circumstances above, you do not need to disclose information about your depression. If you only work part-time and do not receive benefits, the chances that they need to know will be less likely. Remember, the employer is not obligated to keep your illness a secret.

SUMMARY: Tell close friends about your depression. Tell your significant other. Tell family members if it will be helpful. Tell your employer, if necessary.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Take a sheet of plain white paper and draw the picture that you'd like to print. Be sure to use a standard lead pencil so the lead can transfer off and provide an outline for your wood cutting. This should be soft wood, like a thin birch or pine plywood. Use whatever size you'd like your print to end up being. If it's your first time, you might want to use a smaller piece of wood, just to get used to the process. Set the lead side of your drawing directly onto the wood. Carefully rub across the image so that the lead transfers to the wood. Remove the paper drawing. Depending on the kind of wood you used, it may be difficult to see the penciled image. Go over the image with a pen, so you can easily cut around it. Make sure your wood is on a non-slip surface and gather several different sizes of wood gouges. Cut and carve away the wood surrounding your image, taking care not to cut into the image itself. Use gouges to make shallow cuts away from yourself. A V-shaped gouge cuts against the grain, while a U-shaped gouge cuts along the grain, making it easier to remove large chunks. You can purchase several sizes of wood gouges, controlling the level of detail. You may want to do a few practice prints on scrap paper before using your chosen paper. Load your rubber roller with ink, by rolling it in the ink until evenly distributed. Make sure to completely cover your block so that the image is covered in ink. The only part of the woodblock without ink should be the part that you cut away. Be sure to carefully position the piece of paper over the block so that it lines up straight. Start from the center of the paper and gently, but firmly press the paper smoothly across the block. You can use a letter opener, wooden spoon, or bone folder to apply even pressure. Slowly pull up on the edges of the paper to remove it from your woodcut. You should see your image printed on the paper. Let your print dry completely before framing or hanging it.
Summary:
Create your desired image. Get a wooden block. Place your image down onto the wood. Draw over the image with a pen. Cut your woodblock. Gather your paper, ink, and roller. Roll the ink over your woodcut. Lay your paper over the inked woodcut. Smooth over the paper. Lift away the paper.
