Article: One great way to fight sleepiness is to take a nap. These naps should be short - 5 to 25 minutes - and well before your bedtime. Try to nap 6-7 hours or longer from your bedtime.  If you can't take a nap, try closing your eyes and lying there while you rest for about 10 minutes.  Try not to sleep too long. If you sleep more than 20-30 minutes, you won't get into a deep sleep or mess up your inner clock, both of which can make you feel groggy. One of the main reasons you feel sleepy is because you don't get enough. You need to get 7-8 hours of sleep each night. Get on a sleep schedule so that your body can form a habit. Sleep during the hours of 10 p.m. - 2 a.m. The body relaxes the most during those hours. If you stay up too late, your body's natural sleep rhythms can get out of balance. Plus, going to bed late might not give you the 7-8 hours you need. One thing that can help you get proper sleep is to rid yourself of distractions in your room. This includes electronics such as cell phones, laptops, tablets, and televisions. You might be inclined to stay on the computer or cell phone too long, which cuts into your sleep time. Cut off all TVs and radios. If you need to sleep with sound in the background, try soothing music, sleep sounds like rain or thunderstorms, or small water fountains.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Take a nap. Get enough sleep. Sleep at the proper times. Get rid of distractions.

Problem: Article: You'll want to remove all glue, dirt and existing mortar before you start laying your new tile floor. The floor should be completely clean in order for maximum bonding between the tile and the thinset. TSP, or trisodium phosphate, is a great all-purpose cleaner if you need to use it. It cleans extremely effectively, but is no longer as widely used today as it was before because of environmental concerns. Most people decide to lay tile from the center of the room outward, which is important if you're dealing with even-sized tiles. This method will create a nice effect in the center of the room, but tiles in the edges of the room will need to be cut. You may decide to start tiling from another spot in the room, especially if you're using irregular-sized tiles. You may choose to have uncut tiles on the sides of the room and work from there if cabinets, sofas, or other furniture is covering tiles on one side of the room. This article will assume that you want to start from the center of the room and work outward. Make sure you do a dry layout with your tile and spacers directly on the cement board before you lay down the mortar. A dry layout will allow you to visualize the room as it might be when everything is finished. Experiment with different layouts until the right one catches your eye. Set up your chalk string in the center of each wall by measuring the wall and putting the string exactly in the middle. Leave the string in place after you snap it to use as a guide for your first few tiles. Lay down some floor tiles along one of the center lines to make sure you marked the center of the room properly. If you realize that your chalk lines aren't square, redo them now. When you're laying the tile, alternate which box you're pulling from to account for any variation in color among the boxes. If you're making a design or pattern with the tile, put the tiles in order so you know which ones you need at any specific time. If you end with a very small or very large space in comparison with the size of the tile you're using, move everything down so the extra space is about the width of a half a piece of tile and snap new chalk lines to use when placing the tiles. You don't want to have to cut your tile into small pieces to finish a row along the wall.
Summary: If you need to, clean the existing floor thoroughly with a non-toxic floor cleaner. Decide where you want to start your tile. Find the center of the room by snapping a chalk line in the center of the room widthwise and lengthwise. Line up your boxes of tile and open each one.

Q: Alarm barking is any pattern of barking at perceived intruders. While barking at a real intruder is useful and may save a person's life, barking at perceived intruders like mail carriers, parcel deliverers, or even just neighbors passing by the property can be annoying and troublesome.  Alarm barking does not always require a visual confirmation of the perceived intruder. Some dogs may engage in alarm barking simply from hearing a car door outside or hearing voices on the sidewalk.  Alarm barking is often accompanied by a slight lunge or pounce forward (one to two inches) with each bark. The best way to quell alarm barking is by teaching your dog to be quiet on command. Like any training, this will most likely be a time-consuming process that requires patience and consistency. But if you're willing to put in the time and effort, even the most territorial dog will learn to behave better.  When your dog starts engaging in alarm barking, hold up a treat after three or four barks. This will get her attention and will most likely distract her from the perceived intruder.  Wait until she stops barking. Simply be patient and continue to hold up the treat.  Once your dog stops barking, say "quiet" in a calm but stern voice and give her the treat.  Repeat this process until your dog learns to associate the word "quiet" with her silence. Once your dog has done this successfully on 10 or more occasions, you can begin giving the quiet command without showing her a treat. If she still complies with your command, then give her a treat. If she does not, you may need to show her the treat for several more training sessions.  Eventually your dog will learn to be quiet on command without getting a treat. Even after you've reached this stage of training, however, you should still give your dog verbal praise when she stops barking. Once your dog has learned the quiet command in training sessions, you'll need to apply the quiet command to real-world scenarios. You can do this by having a friend slam a car door in front of your house, rattle your mailbox, or approach your front door.  Have a treat ready every time your friend comes to the door. Even if you've passed the point of giving treats during regular training, you may need to use treats for applied training sessions involving an actual perceived intruder.  When you have someone come to the door pretending to be the mailman, it's imperative that your friend does not leave the porch until your dog is quiet. If he leaves while she is still barking, she may come to think that it was her barking which drove him away.
A:
Recognize alarm barking. Teach your dog the quiet command. Apply the quiet command.
