Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Sit tall in a firm chair. Balance the cello between your knees. Rest the cello body against your chest. Angle the cello so the neck is to the left of your head. Face the cello slightly toward your right so you can easily reach the strings.

Answer: Get a firm chair to sit in that allows your hips to be slightly higher than your knees. Sit with your back straight and tall; imagine that a string is attached your head and it’s pulling your head up. Engage your tummy muscles to straighten your spine in your lower back. As you play, use your eyes to look at the strings. Try not to drop your neck to avoid injuring your neck in the long term. Spread your knees to make enough room for your cello. Bring the cello in and allow it to balance on its end piece while resting its sides between your knees. Face the cello out so its strings are away from you.  You shouldn’t grip the cello tightly with your knees; simply let it balance there. The Cello should lay evenly on both legs Allow the cello to lean back against you. Position it so that the top of its body reaches your chest and can rest there. You may have to adjust the endpin, or piece at the bottom that touches the floor, so your cello is the right height for you. Simply loosen the screws and slide the endpin in or out depending on if your need the cello to be taller or shorter, then tighten the screws again before standing the cello back up. Lean your cello back and position its neck in line with the left of your head. Hold the neck with your left hand and rest your right hand on your right leg. Right-handed and left-handed people hold the cello the same way. Using your left hand, angle your cello so its strings are facing slightly toward your right. This will make it easier to reach all the strings without slouching as you play. Check to see if any parts of your body feel tense or uncomfortable. If they do, you should make adjustments to your posture, the height of your chair, or the height of your cello until you are comfortable holding it.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Get two identical bookshelves. Figure out the dimensions of your countertop. Purchase or make a countertop. Attach the counter to the shelves. Add any desired finishing touches. For an alternative method, add a cabinet.

Answer: These should be roughly counter-height or just above. They should be sturdy and preferably deeper than the standard bookshelf. You can paint them beforehand if you want them to be a different color. Measure their depth and width. Decide how long you want the countertop to be. It should be at least as long as the depth of both shelves plus a little extra to create the lip of the counter but can include up to four or five feet between the bookshelves. Next, determine the width by taking the width of the bookshelves and adding a little extra to create a lip. Once you know the dimensions you need, you can purchase or make your own countertop. Make your own by purchasing medium density fiberboard (MDF) or you can go to your local hardware store and purchase any number of materials cut to the exact size that you need.  Butcher's block is a popular option as it is cheap, easy to clean, and great for use in kitchens.  Granite may also be an option but since slabs are so heavy, you will need less space between the bookshelves in order to be sure it is properly supported. If making your own from MDF, you can paint it to create a more table-like appearance or you can laminate or tile the surface to use the island for food preparation. With the shelves at the ends facing outward, place the counter on top and attach it to the shelves with brackets. These brackets will need to be screwed into bookshelves at the edges where the wood is thickest and then into the countertop, being careful not to use screws that are too long and protrude through the surface. Special considerations will need to be taken if using a granite countertop, as you cannot simply screw into the stone. Consult with your local hardware store before attempting this type of counter. If using MDF you can paint, tile, or laminate the countertop based on your needs and preference. Hooks can be bracketed or glued to the outside of the book shelves to hang kitchen towels. Depending on the type of bracket you chose to use, it may be possible to suspend a bar and hooks between the brackets in order to hang pots and pans. Keep in mind, however, that this can quickly become too heavy for the brackets, so don't hang too much. A standard kitchen cabinet can be used between the bookshelves if you would rather have storage than legroom. This will also serve to give the island a more solid look and can be used to hide dishwashers and other appliances from the main view of your kitchen.  You will need your cabinet and bookshelves to be the same height so that the countertop will go evenly across all three pieces. The easiest way to do this is to have shelves that are slightly shorter than the cabinet and add legs. You will also need the cabinet to be no deeper than the width of the bookshelves. The countertop will then need to be the length of the depth of both bookshelves, plus the width of the cabinet, plus a little extra to create the lip of the counter. The width of the countertop will be determined again by the width of the bookshelves. Attach the countertop to the cabinet and bookshelves by first screwing through the inside of the cabinet into the backside of the bookshelf (preferably at the sides as before, but possibly through the lower and upper horizontal sections if they can be reached). Then screw through the inside of the cabinet into the countertop above, again being careful of the length of your screw.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Consider psychological issues if all other causes of hair loss have been ruled out. Be aware that cats can become addicted to licking their fur. Reduce your cat’s stress to help him break the habit. Consider using a synthetic pheromone.

Answer: Psychogenic behavior is sometimes called obsessive-compulsive behavior and is a reaction to stress. In order to reach a conclusion that the cause of the over-grooming is psychological, all other possible causes of hair loss need to be tested for and ruled out. The act of licking causes the release of endorphins (natural occurring morphine-like substances) into the cat's bloodstream. This gives the cat a natural "high" to which they can become addicted. The trigger to the original episode of licking is usually a stressful event such as a stray cat moving into a new home. The cat resorts to licking to calm himself, and becomes hooked on the habit. To do this, try to show your cat that he has no competition for resources such as food, water, or sleeping spots. Provide plenty of toys to keep your cat occupied. You should also give your cat plenty of places to hide if he is feeling stressed. Synthetic pheromones, such as Feliway, are chemical messengers that you can pump into the air to make your cat feel calm. The scent the synthetic pheromone produces is a scent that reassures the cat because his body interprets it as a feeling of safety. These synthetic pheromones come in spray bottles, which you can use to spray on the cat’s bedding, or as room diffusers, which help to make your whole house smell safe to your cat.
