INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You should have dim lights. You can find clear Christmas lights at any home improvement store or supermarket (Like Kmart, Target, or Walmart.) Hang enough to be festive, but not too many. Make sure the guests can see! However, do not hang colorful lights as the colors may appear to clash with certain color schemes. With general décor, make sure you have certain tables for each event. Possible tables include a gift exchange table, a refreshment table, or a food buffet table. However, if you have a tree, you won't need a gift exchange table. Never hang too many bows or too many garland, as it might turn tacky.

SUMMARY: Have dim lighting. Choose appropriate decorative items. Hang festive decorations like garlands or red bows. Use collections of pine cones and glass vases for a classic Christmas accent.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: As soon as the puppy's heart begins to beat, stop performing chest compressions and focus on stimulating the puppy. Continue giving breaths if its breathing is not yet regular and strong.  Using light, careful pressure, vigorously rub the puppy with a towel. Gently turn the puppy over in your hands several times. If it’s a newborn or still very small, grab the puppy by the scruff of its neck several times as well. While stimulating the puppy, you may still need to provide a few puffs of air every 20 to 30 seconds to keep its lungs pumping. Once the puppy's heart starts beating, you should continue rubbing and turning the puppy in your hands for at least 20 minutes.  Most puppies that revive after receiving emergency CPR will stabilize after 20 minutes. If the puppy's heart does not start beating within 5 minutes of treatment, however, it is unlikely that the puppy will revive. All newborn puppies should be closely monitored for several days, but it is especially important to keep a close eye on puppies who needed to be revived upon birth.  One of the most important things you can do is keep the puppy warm. Puppies that get chilled during the first week of life can easily weaken and die. Provide hot water bottles, heating pads, heating lamps, and plenty of warm blankets in an effort to keep the box it stays in at a minimum constant temperature of 85 °F (29 °C). Professional veterinary care is also strongly recommended. If you have not already called the veterinarian, do so after the mother has given birth to the remainder of her puppies. Let the veterinarian know about any puppies you needed to revive and follow their instructions on additional aftercare.

SUMMARY: Stimulate the puppy once it shows signs of life. Keep stimulating the puppy for at least 20 minutes. Monitor the puppy closely.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Lay out your water hose on a flat surface and try to make it as straight as possible. Use a tape measure to find the length of the hose from one end to the other. Write down the length of the hose so you can easily remember it later.  If you're using a new hose for your RV, look on the packaging to determine how long it is. You only need to measure the length of the hose that connects to your water supply. Heat cable detects the temperature of the hose and heats it up if it gets too cold. Get a heat cable that matches the length of your hose and secure the sensor with electrical tape so it's pressed against the hose. Run the cable parallel with the hose and wrap electrical tape around it every 1 foot (30 cm) so it stays in place.  You can buy heat cables from hardware stores or specialty camping stores. Use heat cables whenever you stay in an area that is colder than 32 °F (0 °C). Most RV sites in colder climates already have insulation around the supply lines. If the water supply line at your campsite doesn't already have insulation, you may need to wrap heat cable around it as well. Once the heat tube is secured, get enough foam insulation tubes to match the length of your hose. Pull the side of the foam tubing apart so you can put your hose inside of it. Press the opening in the side of the tubing together so the hose isn't exposed and use duct tape every 1–2 feet (0.30–0.61 m) to hold it in place.  You can buy foam tube insulation from hardware stores. Foam insulation also comes in pieces at 90-degree angles so you can insulate the port where your water hose connects to the RV. Some foam tubes are self-adhesive so you don't need to use tape. Pipe insulation tape has a foil-like exterior and adheres to itself to prevent heat from escaping. Start wrapping near the end of the hose, overlapping the tape by about 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) with each coil. Continue wrapping the tape around the foam tubing until you reach the other end of the hose.  You can buy insulation tape from your local hardware store. If you don't have insulation tape, you can also wrap aluminum foil around the tubing and duct tape it every 1 foot (30 cm) to hold it in place. Heat cable needs to have a power source in order to work, so run the plug either to the campsites power supply or an outlet on your RV. Once the heat cable is plugged in, it will detect low temperatures and turn on whenever it gets too cold for your hose. Attach the end of the hose to the port in the side of your RV that leads to the water tanks. Then connect the other end of the pipe to the water supply pump on your campsite. Open the valves by turning them clockwise so fresh water can run into your RV. If you're still worried about your hose freezing, you can use it to fill your fresh water tank and then disconnect the hose so it's not outside.

SUMMARY: Measure the length of the hose so you know how much insulation to get. Tape heat cable every 1 ft (30 cm) along the hose. Cover the hose and heat cable with foam insulation tubes. Wrap the outside of the foam with pipe insulation tape. Plug the heat cable into the power supply to keep the hose warm. Connect the hose to the water supply and your RV's pump.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When you meet with an attorney for your consultation, ask all of the questions that you have decided to ask. You may also want to bring a notepad and paper to make notes about the attorney’s answers and also note your general thoughts on the attorney. If your particular issue is complicated or extremely rare, it is possible that the attorneys you interview will have to research the specifics of domestic relations law in your state and how they would apply to your case. Do not assume that the attorney is a bad choice or that the attorney is not knowledgeable if he or she cannot answer your question right away. Instead, assess the attorney’s answers to the other questions you asked. Some attorneys may attempt to take over the conversation and steer it where they want it to go. If you are comfortable with that, it is fine. If not, try to redirect the conversation to the topics that you want to discuss. To redirect the conversation, politely say, “I am interested in hearing more about that, but first I want to ask a few more questions.”

SUMMARY:
Ask your questions. Be aware that the attorneys you interview may not have answers to all of your questions. Keep control of the conversation.
