In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Fertilizer can be harmful to the skin. During the process of handling fertilizer, make sure to wear gloves the entire time. You can purchase thick garden gloves at most hardware stores. You may also want to consider protective covering for your eyes and mouth, especially if it's a windy day. Once you've obtained the proper amount of fertilizer, mix as directed. Here, you will have to refer to the directions that came with your fertilizer. Many fertilizers must be diluted with a certain amount of water prior to use. To figure out the right water-to-fertilizer ratio, read your instruction's manual.  Unless you're using organic or homemade fertilizer, it's very important to read the instructions. You should also follow safety instructions carefully.  If you went for a pellet based fertilizer, it probably does not require mixing. You will simply scoop out the pellets and drop them around your tree. Dripping fertilizer too close to the trunk can harm your tree. Drip a circle of fertilizer about a foot away from the trunk. The precise amount you'll use depends on your tree's age and the instructions that came with your fertilizer. If you're using pellets, sprinkle the pellets in a circle a foot away from the tree's trunk. The drip line is the perimeter formed by the furthest reaching branches of the tree. Again, you'll want to start the fertilizer about a foot from the trunk and spread it evenly until it’s just past the drip line. The tree’s roots extend at least this far and this will encourage the roots to spread out, strengthening the tree in the long run.  You can use a rake or other tool to spread the fertilizer. It can help to draw a line signifying the drip line in the ground before you start. This can help you see how far to spread the fertilizer. The maximum amount of nitrogen fruit trees can handle is one pound. If you're using 10-10-10 ratio fertilizer, 10 pounds would be the maximum you could use. If you were using 12-12-12 ratio fertilizer, do not exceed 8.3 pounds. Overuse of fertilizer can actually lessen fruit growth.
Summary: Wear protective gloves when handling fertilizer. Mix the fertilizer as recommended. Drip the fertilizer into the ground a foot away from the trunk. Spread the fertilizer just past the drip line. Stay within the maximum limits of nitrogen.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Labels are made of diverse materials and sewn into clothing in a variety of ways. You must remove them with care, or you risk accidentally tearing your clothing with the seam ripper.  Look for the best approach and point of entry to begin removal. Make a mental note about the type of material the label is made of – is it made of soft fabric or something a little more rigid and paper-like? They could be sewn into your garment side by side, or one on top of the other. If they are stacked, are they sewn in separately, or are the same stitches holding them both on? Either way, you should start with the top tag when you begin the removal process, but now you know whether or not you’ll need to be doing additional stich removal on the second tag. Is the label sewn into the same seam that holds the garment together? Look closely at the threads – if you pull out the tag stitching, will it cause the seam to loosen and unravel?  If so, avoid using a seam ripper, since doing so will damage your clothing. Instead, cut the label off close to the seam, leaving behind the stitching of the label. Don’t cut into the seam.
Summary: Assess your label. Check for multiple tags or labels. Inspect the label and seam closely.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Your instincts are often better at recognizing danger than your rational mind is. If something about a situation seems off, or if you don’t have a good feeling about someone, listen to your gut and get to safety as soon as you can. You may feel butterflies in your stomach or hair raising on the back of your neck. Alternatively, you might be hyper-focused or hyper-vigilant when this person is around. It’s always better to be too cautious than to get into a dangerous situation.  If you don’t know how to leave a situation, make up an excuse. Say that you have to let your dog out or pick up your friend whose car broke down. If the other person is acting violent or threatening violence, leave as soon as is safe to do so. You don't need to make excuses and stick around. Violence for self-defense, and to make an arrest as a police officer or when the person clearly did something illegal (especially a felony) is justified. However, violence for anything else is never permissible, and is considered assault, which is illegal. Plus, you shouldn't have to deal with the latter under any circumstances. If you’re inside with a potentially violent person, make sure you can get to the door easily. Don’t block the door, though. If the person feels trapped, they may be more dangerous to deal with. Get into the habit of noticing where the exits are everywhere you go. If possible, ask a colleague, friend, or family member to stay with you when you deal with someone who might turn violent. The presence of someone else might be enough to keep the violent person calm. If they do decide to use physical force, you’ll be safer with backup than without it. For instance, if you are a nurse treating a patient who has a history of violence, it’s a good idea to ask one of your colleagues to step into the room with you. . Knowing some self-defense moves could save your life if you’re ever attacked. Search the internet for some simple techniques you can practice at home, or sign up for a beginners’ self-defense class. Ask a friend to help you practice the techniques you learn. If you know that someone with violent tendencies is frequently around children, make their safety your top priority. If they are your own kids, take them to stay at a safe place, like a family member’s house. If they are someone else’s, offer to look after them temporarily or help their parent find a place to take them.  If you think that any children are in a dangerous or abusive home situation, let the appropriate authorities know immediately. Younger kids can’t protect themselves, so they depend on adults to protect them. Don’t assume someone else will report a bad situation – report it yourself if you know something is wrong. Know what you will do if someone around you becomes violent. Ideally, you should leave the building and call the police. If you are at home and cannot leave, retreat to a safe room and lock the door before  calling emergency services. If you live with a partner or children, come up with an emergency plan together. Make sure everyone understands what to do to stay safe in a crisis.
Summary:
Trust your gut. Always have access to an exit. Avoid dealing with a violent person alone.  Learn basic self-defense Keep children away from the person. Have an emergency plan.
