Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use paper towels to remove as much of the vomit as possible. Using paper towels or an old rag, absorb any remaining moisture. Sprinkle the area with baking soda or corn starch. Vacuum up the baking soda or corn starch once dry. Apply an enzyme based carpet cleaner. Let the cleaner sit for 1-2 hours. Keep your pet away from the area until it dries.

Answer: Pick up the bulk of the vomit with a couple of dry, folded paper towels, but take care not to squash the vomit particles down into the carpet. Using a spoon or knife may help. Start blotting and dabbing the vomit until the chunks and moisture are mostly gone. With each blot and dab, be sure to use a clean section of the towel; you may need more than one towel if the carpeted area is large. This will absorb the rest of the moisture that remains below the surface of the carpet. Cover the entire carpeted area with baking soda or corn starch. The baking soda or corn starch will likely dry within 2 hours, and they may become clumpy. Once the baking soda or corn starch is dry, use a vacuum to completely suck up the remaining particles. These cleaners are readily available in the cleaning aisle of your local store, or in the pet supplies aisle. Check the container before buying the cleaner to make sure it is enzyme based; this means the cleaner will break down the odor-causing proteins so they can be removed - a good example is Nature's Miracle. They are effective in removing stains, too. Spray the area with the cleaner until it is very damp. The cleaner container may say that the cleaner needs to sit for a longer or shorter period of time. Read the back of the container for specific instructions. Generally, 1-2 hours will allow the product to remove stains and odor. You may even want to keep your pet in a different room for the time being. Once the cleaner completely dries, it can be walked on again.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify your skin tone. Choose a good color for a warm skin tone. Select a good color for a cool skin tone. Pick the right red for a neutral tone.

Answer: The most complimentary shade of red depends on your skin tone. Before wearing a red dress, figure out if you have a warm, cool, or neutral skin tone. Your veins can give a clue as to your skin tone. Blueish or purple veins indicate a cool skin tone. Greener veins indicate a warm skin tone. Veins that do not show one strong color indicate a neutral skin tone.   Think about how you look in silver or gold. Silver tends to look best on warm skin tones and gold looks best on cooler skin tones. Neutral skin tones tend to look good in either shade. Warmer skin tones tend to tan easily and do not burn. Cooler skin tones are more difficult to tan and burn easily. If you have a warmer skin tone, pick a color of red that will compliment that. In general, people with warm skin tones should opt for nature-like colors.  Go for warmer shades of red over jewel-tones and lighter, brighter shades. Look for things like deep red or red the color of a tomato.  Reds with other colors mixed in also work, such as violet-red or orange-red. Stay away from very bright, jewel tones like ruby reds if you have a warm skin tone. If you have a cooler skin tone, you will want a dress color to match. Certain shades of red work better with cool skin tones than others. Jewel tones of red, like ruby red, work for a cool skin tone. You can also go for brighter shades, like a rosy red, if you have a cool tone. It's safe to wear primary red, which is the standard red you would find on a color wheel, if you have a cool tone as well. In general, neutral skin tones go well with most colors, so you can choose from any shade of red. You can pick whatever color you like. Bright reds tend to look great if you have a neutral tone. Neutral skin tone also looks good with slightly muted versions of primary colors, so you could also opt for a softer, lighter shade of red when selecting your dress.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Set up a reuse program with the arts and crafts classes. Plant trees or a garden. Begin a recycling program. Connect students to local initiatives.

Answer: Most art teachers love projects that reuse household items. Talk to your art teacher, and figure out what they need. Then on WED, work with the school to set up an area where items can be collected. Students, teachers, and staff can bring in items to be reused. Creating a little more green space in the world is a great way to celebrate WED. Ask a local nursery to donate trees, and then plant them around the school as part of your WED celebration. Alternatively, stake out an area to start a community garden. You can grow food that students and teachers can take home or that can be used in the cafeteria. If you're school doesn't already have a recycling program, WED is a great day to set one up. Designate an area for recycling, and offer a program on how to recycle and why recycling is important. Your community likely already has a number of ways that they are working to help the environment. Research ones that your students can help with. Talk to them about these programs. You can even help them get connected by taking a field trip to one.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Tell your mentors first. Let close colleagues know. Tell a consistent story. Send an email to other people individually. Avoid a company-wide email.

Answer:
Identify anyone who has acted as an official or unofficial mentor. Also identify people who maybe helped you get the job in the first place or helped you get a promotion. You should tell these people that you are leaving your job. Stop by their office so you can talk in person.  You should also make sure they have your new work email address. Mentoring should continue even after you leave your job. Remember to thank them for helping you. Say something like, “You’ve been the best sounding board, Kathy. I hope we stay in touch.” You should next tell colleagues you were close to. Chances are you’ll maintain some sort of relationship outside of work, so you don’t want them to be insulted that you haven’t told them personally. Stop into their office and break the news. You aren’t obligated to tell others why you are leaving, but they will want to know nonetheless. Accordingly, you should settle on a story and stick with it. Your colleagues will talk to each other and compare notes. Don’t tell one person you’re leaving because you can’t take the stress but tell another person you’re leaving because the commute is shorter.  Ideally, you should settle on a story that is non-controversial. For example, you can simply say, “They promised promotion opportunities which I want to pursue.” Everyone can understand why you would want to leave for that reason. Whatever you do, don’t badmouth anyone, not even over drinks after work. If you need to vent, then call up your parents or therapist. If other people need to know that you’re leaving, you can let them know by email. Keep it brief and friendly. Tell them your last day and ask them to contact you if they have questions.  For example, other team members you work with occasionally should probably get an individual email. They might need to check about the status of a project. If you’re pressed for time, you can send one email and blind copy everyone on it. However, individual emails are better if you have time. Never send out an email to people you don’t know. In larger companies, it’s particularly awkward to read a good-bye email from someone you’ve never met before. Let your boss or Human Resources inform these people that you are leaving. Absolutely fight the urge to trash the company in a good-bye email. No matter how angry you are, nothing good has ever come from these stunts. Sometimes, they even end up in the news.
