Problem: Article: The first step to improving your posture is simply knowing what to look for in yourself. Make sure your shoulders are back, your stomach is in, and your chest is out. Stand sideways in a mirror and see if you can draw a straight line from your earlobe down through your shoulder, hip, knee, and ending at the middle of your ankle.  Head and neck: Make sure that your head extends straight up from your shoulders. Many people tend to lean their head forward. If your ears line up with the front of your chest, you need to pull your head back.  Shoulders, arms, and hands: Your arms and hands should fall on the side of your body. If so, your shoulders are exhibiting good posture. If your arms fall towards the front of your chest, then pull your shoulders back.  Hips: Find a happy middle position between rolling your hips far forward or backward. The most obvious sign of bad posture is back, shoulder, and neck pain. Poor posture causes your chest muscles to tighten, which forces your upper back muscles to compensate. This results in weaker back muscles in general, which produces pain and discomfort.  Since all of your muscles work together, when one muscle set isn't functioning properly, the others are affected. Not all people with poor posture feel pain or discomfort. Our bodies are fairly capable of adjusting and compensating. This is when the arch of your foot is almost completely flat. It is also often called a “fallen arch”. Our feet are the lowest balancing mechanism of our bodies. If you have poor posture, you are forcing your feet to work harder to maintain balance. This causes your feet to gradually “flatten” so as to provide a sturdier foundation. If you improve your posture, your weight should rest nearly entirely on top of your heels, freeing up the remainder of your foot to have an arch. While “fallen arches” are themselves a sign of poor posture, you may also experience pain in your feet, ankle, calf, knee, hip, and lower leg area in general. A study conducted at San Francisco State University asked students to walk down a hall in a slouched position or to stand upright and skip. The slouchers reported increased feelings of depression and general lethargy. While this may seem strange, think about it. Your body language often indicates your mood in general.You sit crouched in a corner with your arms crossed when you are angry or sad. You perk up when you are happy. So why can't your moods tell you something about your body posture? If you've been down in the dumps, consider improving your posture.
Summary: Know what good posture looks like. Recognize pain and discomfort. See if you have “over-pronated” feet. Evaluate your mood.

Problem: Article: The setup wizard you’ll use to configure a print server gives you a default printer name, but you should choose your own unique printer name. Users click on this name to connect to the printer the network is sharing. A print server utilizing multiple printers lists the share name of each printer and users click on the printer to which they want their print job to go. Access to the wizard varies depending on the server computer’s operating system.  For the Windows Server 2003 family, click on the “Start” button in the lower left-hand corner, click on the “Control Panel” button, click on “Administrative Tools” twice and then click on “Configure Your Server Wizard” twice and follow the wizard's prompts. For Windows 2000 and the XP family, click on the “Start” button, click on the “Control Panel,” choose “Printers and Other Hardware” and then click on “Printers and Faxes.” Find the appropriate printer, right-click on the name and/or printer icon, highlight and then click on “Properties.” Open the tab marked “Sharing” and click on the link that says “Network Start-up Wizard” and follow the wizard’s prompts. For Windows 95 and 98, open the “Control Panel,” click on “Network” twice, open the tab labeled “Configuration” and click on the button marked “File and Print Sharing.” From this window place a check mark next to the option that says, “I want to be able to allow others to print to my printer(s).” The computer may require a restart to complete the task.
Summary: Choose a printer name for the shared printer when using Windows-based computers. Create a share name for the print server. Configure a print server by using a server wizard.

Problem: Article: Read the report from beginning to end, trying to imagine that you’re a reader that has never heard this information before. Pay attention to whether the report is easy to follow, and whether the point you’re making comes across clearly. Also, look for whether your evidence supports your thesis. A good question to ask yourself is, “If I were someone reading this report for the first time, would I feel like I understood the topic after I finished reading? No matter how good your information is, your report will seem amateur and messy if it’s full of spelling, grammar, or punctuation errors. Writing your report in a word processor with a built-in spell checker can help you catch mistakes as you're writing, but there’s no substitution for thorough proofreading. Try reading the report to yourself out loud. Hearing the words can help you catch awkward language or run-on sentences you might not catch by reading it silently. No matter how carefully you think you’ve read through your report, sometimes you can accidentally skim over text that you’ve already read several times. After you’ve finished proofreading your report, try reading it again, but this time, read it backward. Start with the last sentence of the report, then the one before that, and so on. This is a great trick to find spelling errors or grammatical mistakes that your eye would otherwise just scan over. Having a second pair of eyes can be helpful when you’re proofreading, especially after you’ve already read the report several times. If you can find someone willing to proofread the report for you, ask them to point out any spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and awkward language, as well as whether your point is clear. Ask your helper questions like, “Do you understand what I am saying in my report?” “Is there anything you think I should take out or add?” And “Is there anything you would change?” All of your hard work deserves to be rewarded, so don't risk losing points because you didn't do the assignment correctly. Go through the assignment checklist or rubric to make sure your paper meets the requirements for full credit. If you have any questions about the assignment requirements, ask your instructor. It's important to know how they'll be grading your assignment.
Summary: Scan the report to make sure everything is included and makes sense. Check carefully for proofreading errors. Read each sentence from the end to the beginning. Have someone else proofread it for you. Compare your report to the assignment requirements to ensure it meets expectations.

Problem: Article: Depending on the state you live in, gun registration may or not be necessary. Visit your state's website to get information about its particular gun regulations.
