Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make singular strips of duct tape without sticky sides. Peel the tape up and fold the sticky sides down on either end. Tape 1 pocket in place. Layer your other pockets below the first one. Add pockets on the other side if you want.

Answer: Measure out 2 strips of duct tape that are about the length of your wallet when folded. Place 1 piece with the sticky side up on your surface. Set the other piece on top, sticky side down with just 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) or so of overhang. You're using almost the same process as you did to make the main part of the wallet, except you're not letting the second piece of tape hang over the edge as much. Pull the tape off the surface. You should have a long, sticky overhang on each side. Fold those over on top of the rest of the duct tape, making single strip with no sticky edges.  You should now have a strip with no sticky sides that's small enough to fit on 1 of the interior sides of your wallet. Create 1 strip for each pocket you want. These pockets will hold cards. Open your wallet and lay it out flat with the inside facing up. Place your first pocket 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) from the top of the wallet on 1 side. Cut out pieces of duct tape just wide enough and long enough to tape the sides and bottom of the pocket to the wallet.  The strips you use to tape the pocket in place should only be 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) or so wide and just long enough to cover the complete edge on each side, except the top. Try to keep the strips of tape out of the middle crease, as the crease could cause the strips to pull up over time. Place the second pocket on top of the first one but about 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) from the top edge of the first pocket. Tape it in place with small strips of duct tape on the sides and bottom of the pocket, leaving the top exposed.  If you need to, trim your pockets as you go along so they're all the same size. Keep going down until you reach the bottom of the wallet. The last pocket should be about 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) from the bottom so you have room to tape it in place. You can add pockets to the other side on the inside if you'd like. Do it the same way by making strips of duct tape and taping them in place in layers. However, if you'd like a large pocket with an ID holder, don't put card pockets on the other side. Alternatively, you can make a larger pocket with an ID holder instead.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Be realistic. Talk to your friends. Reflect on useful feedback. Invite your friends over for some fun. Work on building your friendship skills. Move on and make new friends. Choose an environment that will attract the right friends.

Answer: Don't kid yourself that they still are great friends if they’ve stopping inviting you out or act as though they don’t care about you. It can be hard to accept that your friendship has changed or that the people you thought were friends aren’t great friends to you. Just don’t hang around nasty people because you want to feel accepted. If you friends are being mean, don’t feel like you need them or you must win them back. If they aren’t treating you well, it’s best to accept the end of the friendship and make new friends. A mature way to approach the situation is through talking and communicating clearly. Ask them why they are behaving that way and how it makes you feel. It is possible that they haven't realized that their actions are rude or unfriendly. In some cases, a friend may be feeling sick or having troubles of their own and is lashing out instead of thinking clearly.  Use “I” statements and avoid being defensive or blaming. For example, say, “It hurts my feelings when I’m left out. What’s going on?”  Avoid blaming, criticizing, or becoming defensive. While some people say things because they are mean, your friends might have some valuable feedback you can reflect upon. If they’re being honest and not trying to be mean, try to see things from their perspective. For example, if they say that you chew loudly and don’t want to invite you to eat, try not to get too offended. Instead, make an effort to chew with your mouth closed. If they say things just to be mean and it seems like their statements are an attack on you, disregard what they say. If you feel like your friends are distant, invite them over to have some fun with you. You could have a movie night, a sleepover or play games together. If you all get together and have a good time, you might be able to resolve any issues and start over. However, be aware that this isn't a good solution if your friends are constantly being nasty. If you keep inviting them over and they keep rejecting the invitation, it's time to move on or talk to them. Friendship and social skills are important to maintaining and building your friends group. Ask yourself what qualities you want in a friend, then make an effort to be those things. Look for people who treat you the way you want to be treated and aim to treat them well, too. For example, aim to be caring, reliable, and a good listener. Look for people who respond the same way. You might realize that the friendship is over and want to invite new friends in your life. It can be fun and exciting to make new friends and give you new opportunities to learn and grow. It'll take time to heal and find new friends, but you will find other people. Be open to seeing who else is out there looking to connect. At the end of the day, it is important to be around people who actually want to be your friends, and who care about you. If you’re not sure where to make friends, get involved in activities at school or outside of school such as sports teams, hobbies, and volunteering. You will meet positive people who have the qualities you desire in a friend by going places where they frequent, such as charitable organizations, after-school activities, or recreational groups. Look for friends and acquaintances that have characteristics you value, such as honesty and generosity.  Try meetup.com to look for local groups. If you're in school, look for clubs and organizations that match your hobbies or give back to the community.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Replace the blade when you feel tugging or pulling as you shave. Twist the handle of the razor counterclockwise to expose the blade. Remove the current blade from the head of the razor. Place a new blade into the open slot in the head. Twist the handle clockwise to close the head and secure the blade.

Answer:
Sometimes, it’s hard to tell when to change the blade in a safety razor. Pay attention to the first few strokes of your shave. If it feels like the blade is pulling on your hair, it’s time to change the blade!  You probably won’t be able to tell by looking at the blade whether or not it’s dull. Never test the the blade on your hand, you can cut yourself or damage the razor if it isn’t already dull. Hold the handle in your dominant hand and use the other hand to hold the head of the razor. Then, rotate the handle to the left until the head begins to the separate from the handle or the top of the head opens up to reveal the blade, depending on the razor.  There are a few different types of safety razors, and the blade comes out differently on some of them. Pay attention to the head of the razor as you’re twisting the handle. Be careful not to tip the razor on its side or hold it upside-down. The razor can fall out of the head easily in those positions. Carefully using your fingers or a butter knife, lift the side of the blade to take it out of the head. Try to avoid touching the sharp edges of the blade as you remove it. When you remove the blade, you can recycle it to reduce waste! Select a new blade to replace the old one, and carefully slide it into the slot on the head. The blade will normally have words or arrows printed on it to ensure that it’s facing the right direction. If you don’t have a holder or cartridge for your extra blade, be very careful when handling the blade. Once the blade is in the razor, replace any parts that might cover the blade, and twist the handle the opposite direction to tighten the head. Carefully tilt the razor onto its side to ensure that the blade is secure and won’t fall out of the head. Some handles will lock into place once the head is completely secure, but most will not.
