INPUT ARTICLE: Article: In order to deal with with nosy neighbors, you need to fully understand the situation. Ask yourself the following questions:  How long has this been going on? How many of your neighbors are nosy? Do you live in a nosy neighborhood? How long do you plan to stay in that area? Are they often nosy at certain times? They might by nosiest during weekends, weekdays, or evenings. Perhaps their nosiness stems from something that is going on in their lives. Perhaps they are curious about something that;s going on in your life. Maybe they are nosy about your children, or about your guests, or about the work you're doing in your yard. Try to understand their motives. If you think that they're being nosy, then they're probably violating your privacy in some way—but there must be a reason that they are so curious about your life and habits. Your neighbors might just be very nosy people, but they also might have a genuine reason for asking questions.  Are they new and just trying to understand the culture of the neighborhood? Are they just looking for entertainment at your expense? Are you doing something (suspicious, exciting, or intriguing) to make them curious? Try to learn as much about them as possible without getting too involved. This will help you to identify if there is any malice in their questions, if they are just being nosy to pass the time, or if they are new and need help making friends. You may want to confront your neighbors, you may want to avoid them, or you may want to befriend them.   If your neighbors seem lonely and bored—like they're just nosing because they want to connect with someone—try talking to them, introducing them to other neighbors, and suggesting fun things for them to do. If your neighbors are nosy, but you don't want to confront them directly, try finding ways to avoid their snooping. If your neighbors are always watching you, then put up a fence or conduct your business indoors; if your neighbors are always confronting you and asking you personal questions, then consider how you can avoid talking to them. If your neighbors are snooping around looking for trouble—whether that means stealing your things or reporting you for illegal activities—then consider upping your security. Ask them to stop intruding. If the situation becomes dangerous for your family or your property, don't hesitate to contact the authorities.

SUMMARY: Consider the problem. Look for patterns in your neighbors' nosy behavior. Consider why your neighbors are being so nosy. Talk to the nosy neighbor. Decide how to handle the situation.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Thoroughly mix equal parts of coconut oil and baking soda—for instance, 1 US cup (240 ml) of each. Apply the mixture to stains on carpeting, walls, and other surfaces with a cloth, leave it for 5-10 minutes, then wipe it away with a damp cloth. Like any stain remover, this may cause damage or discoloration to some surfaces. Test it on an inconspicuous area—like the corner of the carpet under the end table—before applying it to the stain. Melt 4 tbsp (60 g) of coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Mix in 4 tbsp (60 ml) of white vinegar and 2 tsp (10 ml) of lemon juice, then add it to a spray bottle. Shake the bottle, spray a light coating of the mixture on your wood furniture, and buff it off with a clean, soft cloth.  Test the cleaner on a hidden area of the furniture first, just in case it reacts with the finish and causes staining or discoloration. Use the mixture right away, since the coconut oil will congeal if it cools below 76 °F (24 °C). Scoop a fingertip-sized amount of coconut oil onto a clean cloth. Work it into the leather item using a circular rubbing motion, leaving behind only a thin, shiny film of oil. Add more coconut oil to a clean section of the cloth as needed. Test the coconut oil on a small spot of the leather first. There’s a small chance it may discolor your favorite leather jacket or sofa! Scoop a small amount of coconut oil onto a cloth and rub it into the sticky spot. The oil should cause the sticky residue to release and lift away. Wipe the area with a damp cloth if needed.  Try this on a sticky spot on your carpet, or to remove tacky residue left behind by a price tag or other sticker. Like always, test the coconut oil on an inconspicuous area first.

SUMMARY: Remove stains with coconut oil and baking soda. Make a coconut oil furniture polish. Clean and condition leather with straight coconut oil. Lift away sticky residue by rubbing on coconut oil.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When communicating with a deaf person, try to keep your eyes at the same level as their eyes. You can sit down if they are sitting, or stand up if they are standing. You should be a little further away than the normal speaking distance (3-6 feet, 1-2 meters). This helps to make sure they'll see all of your gestures.  If you're indoors, make sure there's enough light for them to see you clearly. If you're outside, face the sun so that there isn't a shadow cast in your face and the sun doesn't glare in theirs. Avoid placing anything in or around your mouth (chewing gum, your hands) while you are talking. As best you can, try to speak normally. Whispering or shouting will can distort your lip movements, making it difficult for a deaf person to follow your words. Similarly, if you exaggerate your mouth movements, you will be harder to understand than if you speak normally.   Increase the volume of your voice only helps if the person asks you to do so. Speak a bit slower if the person asks you to do so. Your eyes and facial expression help to communicate the tone and demeanor of your conversation, so it is important to maintain eye contact. Do your best not to turn your head away while you are speaking.  Also, try and make sure they are maintaining eye contact. For example, if you're teaching them how to use an object and they are looking at the object, wait for them to be done looking at it before you continue.  If you have sunglasses on, take them off. If you can add facial expressions to emphasize a point (smiling, rolling your eyes, raising your eyebrows) do so, where appropriate. It can be helpful to incorporate some physical movement or props into your communication. You might point to (pointing is generally not considered rude in the deaf community)  or hold up any items that you're talking about, or mimic actions (like drinking or jumping or eating) to help illustrate your words. You can hold up fingers to indicate numbers, scribble in the air to show you're writing a letter, and so on.

SUMMARY:
Stay in their field of vision. Speak in a normal voice and tone. Maintain eye contact. Use gestures and visual cues.
