Problem: Article: The stakes should be about 1 yard (91 cm) apart. You can use any star for this, although you’ll probably want to pick one of the brighter stars.  Earth’s rotation from west to east causes the stars in the sky, as a whole, to rotate from east to west. Which way the star has moved with respect to its original position where you sighted it tells you which direction you’re facing.  If the star rose, you’re facing east. If the star sank, you’re facing west. If the star moved to the left, you’re facing north. If the star moved to the right, you’re facing south.
Summary: Drive 2 stakes in the ground. Pick any star you see in the night sky. Line the star up with the tops of both stakes. Wait for the star to move out of position with the stakes.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Apply a leather cleaner to the scuffed area, using the cleaner according to its label’s instructions. Cleaning the area will remove dirt or oils, which will prevent discoloration and ensure the glue will set properly. It will also open the leather’s pores, making it more receptive to the products you’ll use to repair and recolor it. Gently run a spatula or the back of a knife against the grain of the scuff. Your goal is to carefully lift the scuffed fibers away from the surface. That way, you’ll be able to access the area underneath the fibers with leather glue. Apply a few drops of leather glue onto the edge of your spatula or the back of your knife. Pull the tool against the grain of the scuff to apply the glue to the underside of the scuffed fibers. Use short, even strokes to thoroughly and carefully apply the glue. After applying glue against the grain, rub the tool with the grain of the scuff to flatten the area and remove air bubbles. Rubbing with the grain will lower the scuffed fibers back into place, so they’re even with the leather surface. Use your finger to gently massage the area and remove excess glue. If you can match a recoloring marker to your leather, apply it in thin coats. Feather the outer edges of the recolored area to blend it with the surrounding leather. Light scuffs might not need any recoloring at all, so use your judgment after applying the leather glue.

SUMMARY: Clean the area with a leather cleaner. Use a sharp-edged tool to lift scuffed fibers. Apply a small amount of leather glue using a spatula or knife. Rub the repaired surface to remove air bubbles and excess glue. Use a leather marker to recolor the damaged area.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If you're obsessing over a challenge or problem, try to solve it. Brainstorm a list of options, so you feel like you have options. If you have trouble seeing potential solutions, talk with other people who have experienced a similar situation to the one you're trying to solve. Other people may be able to offer you a different perspective to solving your problem. For example, maybe you've been obsessing over a way to maintain your fitness through a life change. Your challenge could be finding a way to schedule your morning run while still being able to take your new infant to daycare. You might talk to another new parent or offer to take turns with childcare so you can work out. You may feel that obsessing over something or someone has isolated you from friends and family. Re-connect to friends, family, or co-workers who you can explain your situation to. Talking can help you understand the underlying cause of your obsession and having a support network to turn to can reduce your stress. For example, if you're obsessing over an ex after a break up, talk with a friend or family member. Talking with your friend might help you realize that you're obsessed because your ex was the first person to take you seriously in a relationship. It's easy to slip into the routine of obsessing over something if you're not challenging yourself with new things. If you've been meaning to pursue a new hobby or take a class, start doing it. Not only will you take your mind off of your obsession by focusing on a new task or skill, you may also meet new people or learn something new about yourself. New people and new ways of thinking can help you move beyond your obsession. You might realize that you no longer crave whatever the obsession rewarded you with. For example, you might not obsess over a lost job opportunity if you learn a new trade that you actually enjoy more. You might be so focused on obsessing over something going on in your life, that you completely overlook the lives of your friends, family members, or people in your community. Reach out to people who might need your help. Not only will they appreciate it, but you'll realize there's more to life than your obsession. For example, you might tutor at a school, serve at a soup kitchen, or drive an elderly relative to the grocery store.
Summary: Find a solution to your obsession. Create a support network. Try new experiences. Do something positive for others.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Some children with OCD have obsessions about cleanliness and become afraid of being contaminated, contracting diseases, and becoming ill. They may worry about close person-to-person contact or develop fears of dirt, food, or certain places or things they believe are unsanitary or infectious. Although it can be hard to observe an obsession, you can be on the look out for the compulsions that can result from an obsession with cleanliness:  Your child may avoid certain locations, such as public restrooms, or certain situations, such as social events, because they fear contamination. Your child may become strangely habitual. For example, they may eat the same food over and over again because it is supposedly contamination-free. Your child may begin to impose cleansing rituals on you and other members of your family in an attempt to ensure complete sanitation. Your child may even develop compulsions that seem contrary to an obsession with cleanliness. For example, they may refuse to bathe due to a fear of contamination. Some children with OCD develop obsessions with symmetry and order; they need processes to be “done right” and items to be arranged “correctly.” As a result:   Your child may develop very precise ways of handling, arranging, or aligning objects; they may do this in a highly ritualized way. Your child may become very anxious when items are not arranged correctly; they may panic or believe something terrible will happen. Your child may have trouble concentrating on schoolwork or other things because they are so preoccupied with these matters, which seem so inessential to you. Children with OCD can obsess about themselves or others being harmed. This obsession may manifest itself in a variety of compulsive behaviors:  Your child may become very overprotective toward family members and close friends. Your child may try to make sure everyone is safe by checking and rechecking that doors are locked, appliances are turned off, and no gas leaks are present. Your child may devote several hours a day to performing ritualized tasks aimed at making sure that everyone is safe. Children with OCD may have violent intrusive thoughts, and they might become very worried that they will give into these thoughts and hurt themselves or others intentionally. They may begin to hate themselves or believe that they are bad people. As a result:   Your child may be overcome with guilty feelings. They may seek forgiveness, confessing their thoughts to others and seeking reassurances of their love and affection. Your child may become emotionally exhausted and preoccupied with these thoughts. Though the anxieties may be mostly internal, you can be alert for signs of increased anxiety, depression, or exhaustion. Your child may draw or write about the violent behaviors over and over.
Summary:
Pay attention to fears of contamination. Note any excessive preoccupation with symmetry, order, and exactness. Watch for compulsions to keep loved ones safe. Notice any obsession about causing intentional harm.
