In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Before you start playing Rubik's Cube, identify the different pieces of it. This will help you understand the mechanics of the Cube and more quickly solve it.  There are several different sized Rubik's Cube games. For example, the original Rubik's Cube is called “3x3.” This means that there are three layers to the Rubik's Cube- a top, a middle, and a final layer.  The other sizes range from 2x2 cubes (Two layers) to 5x5 cubes (Five layers). There are larger cubes with over 5, but these are called V-Cubes (V-Cube 6 and V-Cube 7, to name a few). On each side of your Cube are center pieces, which have only one color on them. The colors are either red, blue, white, yellow, green, or orange.  There are six center pieces located in the center of each side. Center pieces do not move and represent the color of a specific side.  Center piece colors always have a specific color opposite them on the Cube. White is always opposite yellow, orange is always opposite red, and green is always opposite blue. On your Cube, the logo piece is one color, usually white, and has the Rubik's Cube logo on it. Generally, you'll start with this side of the Cube facing up. There is only one logo piece. On your Cube, each edge pieces have two different colors. These are often the last pieces of each layer that you will solve. There are a total of twelve edge pieces on a Rubik's Cube. On your Cube, the corner pieces have three different colors. There are a total of eight corner pieces.
Summary: Identify the pieces. Identify the center pieces. Identify the logo piece. Identify the edge pieces. Identify the corner pieces.

Declining performance in school or work is often connected to drug use. Drugs not only decrease mental capacity, they increasingly dominate a user's thought process. Instead of focusing on issues related to education or employment, a drug user may be constantly thinking about becoming intoxicated, and how to obtain more drugs. Both insomnia and unusual sleepiness may indicate drug use. Does the individual sometimes seem strangely lethargic and tired? Do they suddenly crash and sleep for long periods of time? Alternately, do they have giddy or manic energy even without sleeping? See-sawing between high and low energy, between periods of excessive and insufficient sleep, should raise the alarm.  Opiate users may exhibit a euphoric wave of energy and then abruptly fall asleep, even while sitting upright. Alcoholics might be full of energy at night and then sleep well into the morning, exhibiting an aversion to light and sound. An LSD high can last for up to 12 hours, during which time an individual cannot sleep. But following the high, a user may “crash” and sleep for an entire day. Have they started doing things they previously considered immoral? Have they been lying and skipping school or work? Are they asking to borrow unusual amounts of money? Have property, valuables, and money gone missing?  Are they taking risks that put themselves and others in harm's way? Answering yes to any of these questions may indicate problematic drug use. Have they become more reclusive, avoiding family and long-time friends? Are they more irritable and distant with loved ones? Has the individual started hanging out with mysterious new friends that they refuse to introduce? Are they taking suspicious phone calls, or constantly texting unknown people?  If so, the individual may be using drugs. Consider looking through the individual's dresser, desk drawers, or clothing pockets. Suspicious items may include eye drops, mouthwash, “baggies,” cigarette rolling papers, cotton swabs, roach clips, pipes, bongs, needles, pill bottles, incense, or room deodorizers. While some of these are common personal hygiene items, they could also indicate a drug use problem.  Be very careful when infringing on an individual's privacy. You may anger them greatly and you will be very embarrassed if you are mistaken about their drug use. Only look through someone's personal things if you deeply concerned about their wellbeing and willing to face the consequences of doing so.

Knit berets – whether made from wool or cotton – are super comfy. Because they also look very casual, you can pair 1 with your most casual looks. Choose a knit beret and style it your favorite way. A leather – as opposed to knit – beret will make this classic style look more modern. Simply choose a leather (or faux leather) beret and style it the same way. If you want to incorporate a beret into your everyday outfit, pick one made from cotton. It will be casual enough for everyday wear, but not so casual that it clashes with whatever you're wearing. Lined berets will have a thin layer of material inside of the hat. They'll keep your head warmer than an unlined beret, which makes them a perfect choice for cold weather. As the weather gets warmer, you can swap out your lined beret for one without lining. You'll be able to maintain your look without your head getting sweaty in the heat!
