Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Try over-the-counter medicine. Get prescription medicine. Purchase oil products.

Answer: There are a few different kinds of medicines you can buy to help relieve ear pain. Ear drops can help with the pain. You can also use acetaminophen (like Tylenol) or ibuprofen (like Advil) to help relieve pain. Do not use aspirin in children under the age of 2 years or in any child or teenager after the flu or the chicken pox. Giving aspirin to a child or teenager can lead to Reye's syndrome, which is a potentially fatal disease that causes the brain and liver to swell. The risk of a child or teen developing Reye's syndrome is even higher after the child or teen has had chicken pox or the flu. Most adults with mild ear infections heal within a week using home remedies. However, if the ear infection is severe enough, your doctor might prescribe antibiotics. Generally, antibiotics are only used in severe cases and not for every ear infection. If the pain or infection is bad enough, your doctor can prescribe eardrops or other medicine.  For children younger than six months of age with an ear infection, antibiotics should be given immediately. Do not try to use home remedies for an ear infection on a child. Amoxicillin is the most commonly prescribed drug for ear infections. Your doctor may recommend taking 500 mg every 12 hours or 250 mg every 8 hours for a mild to moderate infection. For a severe infection (patients with fever) your doctor may prescribe 875 mg every 12 hours or 500 mg every 8 hours. Your doctor may also prescribe amoxicillin-clavulanate if your infection does not respond to amoxicillin or if you have severe ear pain and/or other symptoms, such as a high temperature.  If you are allergic to penicillin, then your doctor may prescribe cefdinir, cefpodoxime, cefuroxime, or ceftriaxone instead. Streptococcus pneumoniae,  Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis are bacteria that may be to blame for your ear infection. Taking antibiotics should attack the bacteria. However, if your infection does not seem to improve within 48 to 72 hours after starting antibiotics, then call your doctor. There are a number of commercial ear oil products that can be purchased in most stores or online. Examples of these include: Wiseways Herbals, NOW Ear Oil Relief, HerbPharm Kid’s Mullein/Garlic Ear oil, and Gaia Herbs Ear Oil with Mullein/St John's wort. Try these if you don’t want to make your own.  Make sure to follow the directions for use. If your child has an ear infection, do not try to treat it yourself. Ear infections in young children are more likely to lead to serious complications, such as hearing loss, facial paralysis, brain abscess, and meningitis. Take your child to see a doctor right away if he or she is having ear pain.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Empathize with people. Be selfless. Embrace honesty. Respect the rights of others. Honor your promises and obligations.

Answer: For many people, being ethical means also being empathetic. Empathy is defined as our ability to share and understand how other people feel and experience the world. In a nutshell, to have empathy means that you have the ability to put yourself in another person’s shoes.  Try to imagine what it is to be someone who is less fortunate. When someone suffers a loss, try to imagine what that loss may mean for them. True empathy is when you can understand how others experience the world. Many people also see selflessness as an important part of living ethically. In this view, to put other people above yourself is a key to ethical life. The key to being selfless is to commit yourself to self-sacrifice. Sacrificing your own needs for others is the foundation of being selfless.  In the view of many, self-sacrifice is virtuous and is at the center of what it means to be ethical. When you can, help others instead of helping yourself. For instance, when you're seated on a bus comfortably, offer your seat to someone who needs the seat (like an older person who may have trouble standing). Instead of taking an opportunity to make yourself wealthier, help others achieve happiness or assist them with basic needs. For example, if you're lead on a team at work, and you see the possibility of claiming credit for the team's work and getting a raise (even if you are largely responsible), don't do so. Instead, claim credit for your entire group and try to secure a raise for everyone (even if it means your raise or bonus might be less). Many people also associate honesty with an ethical life. To tell the truth and avoid untruth is seen as one of the cornerstones of modern ethics. This comes out of the view that lies can and often do hurt other people. Lies, in this view, are rooted in selfishness.  Tricking someone for your own gain is unethical. Cheating is unethical, as it hurts other people. Lying to someone for personal gain is unethical. Respecting the rights of others is another cornerstone of modern western ethics. This is based on the idea that all individuals are endowed with certain rights by the very fact of their existence. To violate an individual’s rights is to live without ethics. In this view:  Individuals should be free from the physical coercion of others. Individuals should be free to pursue their own interests and their own happiness. Violence against other individuals violates the rights of others and is therefore unethical. Making sure you keep your promises and hold to your obligations is another cornerstone of ethical behavior. The reason breaking promises and shirking obligations is seen as unethical is that you are seeking your own self-interest at the expense of others.  View promises as a way of verbally binding yourself to others. If you have an obligation, make sure to honor that obligation. Think before you make promises or obligations.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Look for loopholes in your school's dress code. Choose items in varying sizes or lengths. Get multiple colors. Pick a cut that flatters your body. Choose basics with fun details. Pop your collar. Add a unique jacket.

Answer:
Get a copy of the uniform policy and/or dress code and read it carefully. It’s super important to be respectful of your school's uniform policy to avoid getting into trouble. Look for loopholes -- you may have to wear a uniform, but the code may not say anything about wearing only your uniform.  For instance, you may be able to add a jacket, scarf, hat, buttons or pins, etc. When adding items to your uniform, make sure that they still conform to the dress code. For example, you may be able to wear a jacket, as long as it is solid-colored. If possible, choose separates, like sweaters and skirts, in multiple sizes or lengths. This will give you more variety to choose from when getting dressed for school. For example:  If you can choose the length of your skirt, get one that’s shorter and one that’s longer. Pair the longer skirt with flats and a shorter skirt with high-heeled boots. If you are allowed to choose the length of your socks, alternate between crew and knee-high socks. Some schools offer a variety of sweaters, cardigans, vests, and sweatshirts. Consider choosing 2 or 3 different items so that you aren't wearing the same thing every day. In some cases, you may have a choice between colors. For example, if your school colors are maroon and navy, you may be able to choose between those colors when picking a sweater for your uniform. Rather than making a choice, get both if your budget (or your parents’ budget) allows. That way you can have some options when getting ready.  For example, if your school offers both maroon and navy cardigans, get both! Wear the maroon cardigan one day, and the navy one the next! Keep patterns in mind. Some schools offer both plaid and solid-colored skirts. This will allow you to create more combinations and add some variety to your wardrobe. You may have the option to choose between several cuts of an item, such as pants. Rather than opting for the most basic choices, pick a cut that flatters your body. Go for a flare if that appeals to you, or choose boot-cut or baggy pants. You can even get a couple of each style so you’ll be able to make a choice in the morning.  Skirts also come in different styles. A skirt with pleats may not flatter you at all, but a skirt with a flat front and darts may. When you find a cut that flatters you, stick with it. Try to find as many lengths, colors, and patterns in that cut. If you have to wear basic items, avoid buying them from the school when possible. Instead, shop around to find items that fit the rules while still being unique. For example, pick a collared white shirt with three-quarter length sleeves, ruched sides, or pretty buttons instead of the standard collared white shirt the rest of your classmates will have. Instead of laying your collar flat like your classmates do, pop your collar up. It will make you stand out -- at least until everyone starts copying your look!  You could even wear a brightly-colored collared shirt underneath your uniform and pop both collars for a unique look. If you don't like popping your collar, consider leaving the top 1 to 2 buttons open. Double-check with your school if this is allowed first, however! Not only will a jacket keep you warm, it can show you personality, too. You can choose from a bomber jacket, peacoat, trench, and more. Pick a rain coat in a fun pattern or choose a coat that’s tailored to show off your figure.  If you don't like to wear jackets, try sweaters or cardigans. Sweater vests are also a great option! Double-check with your school's dress code first. They may only allow non-uniform jackets as long as they contain the school colors.
