INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There's no one way to organize a toolbox, but the best way to get started is to create piles, placing like tools with like tools. How you choose to do this will be up to you, and it will depend on the tools you've got in your collection, but there are a few good strategies to keep in mind as you're sorting. In general, though, you just want to keep tools that belong next to one another next to one another, so you don't have to dig through a complete mess to find what you're looking for. In one area, keep fasteners like screws, bolts, washers, and anything related to securing one thing to another in its own little tray. Keep your screwdrivers in one drawer and keep your wrenches in another. Pair the function of the tools with the location of the tools. If you specialize in a few common projects, then you might assign drawers, shelves, or individual boxes to their own project. If you always need your grease gun and your socket set at the same time, keep them in the same drawer. If you always need your plumber's wrench and your Philips set at the same time, keep them together. Put your most frequently used tools at the front and put less frequently used tools toward the back, where you won't have to worry about them. Alternatively, you could even assign separate drawers or boxes for "most common" and "least common," to create miscellaneous categories that you'll know to look in. For sockets and basic wrench sets, if you've got multiple sizes and increments, it can be a real pain to dig through an unorganized drawer trying to look for the right one. Separate them into separate locations to make finding one a lot more quick. Wrench organizers called rails are commonly sold at hardware stores. These allow you to quickly scan and snap your tools into and out of place. You can even keep them arranged in their proper order, so you won't have to spend a bunch of time scanning for the right one. They're cheap and useful. If you don't have a rail or don't want them, try to bundle loose wrenches in an old rag or a small sack for your portable box. At least they'll all be in the same place and won't be rattling around loudly. If your tools are grease-magnets, lining the bottom of the box with a piece of cardboard will help to soak it up and keep it from dirtying your tools and even dripping out of the box. It's a crude method, maybe, but it works. Get out a permanent marker and some masking tape and start labeling every drawer, every box, every little thing in which you've hidden something. The first couple of weeks after a big reorganization can be the most frustrating, and you'll make it a whole lot easier on yourself if you clearly mark everything in your workshop and make it easy to identify.

SUMMARY: Keep like with like. Sort by function. Sort by project. Sort by popularity. Separate standard and metric wrenches. Keep storage sockets and wrenches on rails if possible. Line the bottom of the portable toolbox with cardboard. Label everything.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Sounds are a great way to experience an electronic device. However, pings, clicks and swipes do get irksome after a while and can intrude on the people around you. Everyone has their own music tastes as well, so even though blaring Michael Jackson is your norm at home, in an airport people want to stop-over or wait, in peace. One of the hardest thing's for a parent is to teach a child to behave in public spaces. However, it isn't an impossible task, and it's important to do so prior to visiting an airport, let alone a plane! Children are usually the main fault when it comes to proper composure and etiquette in an airport.  Strange environments may be stressful or exciting for children however as a parent it is vastly important to insure that your child is where you can see them at all times. Inform your child if they are old enough about everything you are doing to keep them up to date with the trip. It saves the constant questioning and interrupting as to where and what they are doing next. Remember to reward the child for well-esteemed behavior and discipline them for noncooperation. You should never discipline your child in public places, let alone an airport. It does put others around you on edge and humiliates the child and can result in them having adverse social ramifications later in life. For example you can promise your child that when you get to the hotel or accommodation, they will be rewarded a treat if their behavior is constantly compliant throughout the ordeal. If they were not, let them know they won't be getting a treat and instead losing a privilege (No iPad or iPod for one day of the vacation). If you have an infant, insure you escape to quiet areas of an airport to settle the child down. There are usually family rooms that you can resort to rather than interrupting people around you with screaming and crying. Rather than dumping all your belongings down and taking up an entire seating arrangement, try to keep your belongings by your side and allow for people to sit. As the boarding time draws imminent, more people will arrive and the terminal will fill up rapidly. If at any point in your visit you get lost, you lose something or you're just totally bewildered; you can find a help desk to get some clarity. Remember to also notify an airport officer if you break something and there is dangerous glass or chemicals. If you or a child (if you have one) vomits or misses the bathroom, it's common decorum to tell someone so that they can clean up the mess.  Don't think that you're judged or dwell on the humiliation, airport officials deal with this every-day. If you do miss your flight, it gets canceled or you can't find your gate and they are boarding, you need to be able to familiarize yourself with the airports uniform or the closest help desk to get the latest information so that you can dodge stress attacks. If you do see an individual participating in reckless behavior, causing a hazard to you or someones else, you need to be able to contact airport security. Security in an airport is one of the highest trained in the world. Note down the particular event and key thing's or clothing the person or group was wearing. It's important to describe people in a frank and honest way. Describing people in situations like criminal activity is understandably not a time for perfect political correctness; " They were of a Caucasian decent with long scraggly hair" is plausible. Sometimes in international airports you may get the occasional superstar that steals the attention of almost everyone. It's important to be calm and not act ridiculously by chasing, screaming or carrying on. If you do have the opportunity to see a personage in the flesh at the airport, it's important to treat them with respect. If they are someone you admire, it's fine to ask for a quick signature; but comprehend that their schedule is far more rigid than yours, and in most cases you may be on holidays but they are actually at work. They may have flown for many hours, they are probably tired and maybe a little not in the mood for their number one fan.  Keep your distance when getting close to the entourage. It's more than likely that the paparazzi will be more focused on getting their million dollar snap than avoiding a collision with you. Hold yourself from running at the celebrity, their body guards are tarnished for their unsympathetic and in some cases, brutal defense techniques.

SUMMARY:
Use headphones. Control your child (if you have one). Take up little room. Don't be scared to seek assistance. Be humble to celebrities.
