INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There are four types of dengue viruses, all of which all of which are spread by mosquito. Humans are the primary host of the disease and it is a very common illness in tropical areas.  When a mosquito is infected by the virus, it will spread the virus through its saliva when it bites. Dengue can also be transmitted from human to human. For example, infected blood used in a blood transfusion can cause dengue. Even organ donation and mother to child transmission are possible. The incubation period of dengue (period before which symptoms are visible) is about 3-14 days. Your symptoms may vary, depending upon the type of the virus and your level of immunity.  The virus will circulate around your body after infection, attacking white blood cells and other antibodies, which will compromise your immune system. The virus will further replicate within the cell until the cell bursts and dies, releasing cytokines that initiate the inflammatory response of the body as it tries to ward off the virus. The death of the white blood cells will trigger leakage of other fluids from the cells, leading to hypoproteinemia (low protein), hypoalbuminema (low albumin), pleural effusion (fluid in the lungs), ascites (fluid in the stomach area), hypotension (low blood pressure), shock, and eventually death. A high fever will take place as a result of the body’s effort to suppress the virus. Like any other type of systemic infection, the body will increase its temperature to kill the virus. Intense headache is reported by most dengue patients.  The exact reason for a headache is not known, but it is probably related to the high fever. Increased body temperature can irritate the nerves of the head and cause a gnawing, radiating head pain. Dengue-related eye pain is often exacerbated when there is bright light in the room.  The pain is characterized as dull and deep. The eye pain is a side effect of an intense headache. Since nerve endings in the head share the same pathway, pain can be felt not just in the head, but also in the eyes. Widespread bleeding can occur, because the virus attacks your capillaries, the smallest blood vessels in the body.  When the capillaries burst, blood escapes to outside the bloodstream. Blood pressure decreases as blood leaves the body, eventually leading to internal bleeding, shock, and death. During a severe case, bleeding is more common in the nose and gums, where small blood vessels are located. Your pulse may also become weak due to the decreasing blood volume in your body. As your fever decreases, skin rashes may start to appear.  The rash is reddish and similar to a measles rash. The rash is caused by the bursting of small capillaries. The diagnosis of dengue is done through performing a physical exam, taking the history of the illness, and doing laboratory tests.  Your doctor will try to identify your signs and symptoms. He will take into account whether or not you live in, or have recently visited, a common dengue area. Your doctor will suspect dengue if there are warning signs such as abdominal pain, liver enlargement, mouth bleeding, low platelet and white blood cell counts, restlessness, and decreased pulse. Your doctor may use an ELISA test to identify immunoglobins in your bloodstream that are unique to dengue infection.

SUMMARY: Know what causes dengue. Recognize the signs and symptoms of dengue. Use a thermometer to identify fever. Take note of an intense headache. Notice pain behind your eyes. Look out for any excessive bleeding. Keep an eye out for rashes. Know how dengue is diagnosed.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Fabric that does not fray would work the best. Great choices include flannel, fleece, felt, and t-shirt material. What color you pick depends on what turtle you want to be:  Donatello = purple Leonardo = blue Michelangelo = orange Raphael = red You want the fabric to be long enough so that you can wrap it around you head, tie it, and have a couple inches leftover—about 3 feet (0.91 meters). If this is for an adult, start with a 4-inch (10.16-centimeter) wide strip. If this is for a child. start with a 3-inch (7.62-centimeter) wide strip. There are two ways you can do this. You can measure the distance between your eyes, and make marks on the mask. You can also drape the mask across your face, and make marks over your eyes with a pen. Spread the mask out on a flat surface. Draw two almond-shaped eyeholes on the mask, right where you made the marks. It is better to start with smaller shapes that you think you might need. Remember, you can always cut the holes bigger if they are too small. Make a small slit in the center of each eye, then cut the holes out along the eyes that you drew. Be sure to tie the mask behind your head, as the fabric will scrunch up a little. If the eye holes are too small, take the mask off and make them bigger. If the mask is too wide, untie the mask, and cut it narrower. For an added touch, you could cut the ends of the mask at angles. You could even cut notches into the ends to make them more tattered looking. You can also cut a small curve into the top-center and bottom-center of the mask, right between the eyes.

SUMMARY: Choose your fabric. Cut a long strip out of the fabric. Figure out the eye placement. Refine the eye shapes. Cut the eye holes out. Try on the mask and make any adjustments. Refine the mask shape, if desired.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If the app cannot be located under the home screen, you should be able to find it when looking under “All Apps” on your phone. This step may differ depending on your phone type.  On iPhone, choose the “Sounds and Vibration Patterns” section. Scroll through to find the “Ringtone” option which shows your currently selected ringtone. Tap on a ringtone to preview the ringtone or tap “Apply” to save your changes. On Android, it may be listed under either “Sounds” or “Sound & Notification.” Choose “Phone ringtone” to select a ringtone to play then tap on “Preview” to play the ringtone or tap on “Apply” to save your changes. You can adjust how loud you want your phone to be when receiving a phone call.  On iPhone, tap “Sounds” then adjust the “Ringer and Alerts” slider to apply your changes to keep the ringtone at the specified audio level.  On Android, choose “Volumes” then adjust the “Ringtone & notifications” slider to test your ringtone

SUMMARY: Access the “Settings” app on your phone. Configure ringtone audio. Test the ringtone audio.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This process works best if at least 1 of the bottles curves outward from the neck, preventing the distilled water from sliding back into the other bottle. Stop filling about 5 in (12.7 cm) from the top.  You want just enough water to cover the bottle filled with tap water. The angle makes it easier to collect the evaporated distilled water. This will create a hot/cold barrier, causing the evaporation of water in the filled bottle to condense into the cooler bottle.

SUMMARY:
Get 2 glass bottles for making distilled water. Fill 1 bottle with tap water. Join the 2 bottles together at the neck and secure them tightly with duct tape. Use a 5-gallon (18.927 L) stainless steel pot of boiling water to distill the water. Tilt the bottles at about a 30-degree angle, leaning the top, empty bottle on the inside of the pot's rim. Rest an ice pack or a bag of ice on top of the bottle on top. Continue the distillation process until you collect enough distilled water in the bottle for your needs.
