Even a small amount of urushiol from poison ivy leaves or stems can cause a reaction depending on how sensitive you are to it. In some people, the rash can be quite severe, so it’s best to err on the side of caution and cover yourself up completely with a long-sleeved shirt, pants, socks, closed-toed shoes, and rubber gloves.  You can also cover your hands and arms with bread bags as an extra precaution if you plan to pull the plants up by hand. For extra security, use duct tape to close any gaps between your sleeves and gloves or your pants and socks. After you finish handling the poison ivy plants, carefully remove your clothing and place it directly into a washing machine alone. Don’t place these items in a hamper or wash them with your normal laundry. Wash the items 3 times on the hot water setting and with laundry detergent.  If possible, wash your shoes as well. If you can't wash your shoes, be sure to cover them while you're working near the poison ivy so the toxins don't transfer to them. If you cannot wash the items right away, place them into a garbage bag and mark the bag clearly to indicate what’s in it. Then, wash the items separately from your other laundry when you’re able. It’s crucial to wash the items thoroughly because urushiol from the poison ivy can still cause a rash even years later. After you finish cutting and digging up the poison ivy, spray them with a hose outside to clean them. Place them on the ground away from people to do this, such as on a patch of concrete or grass. Then, dip them in rubbing alcohol or a mixture of 1 part bleach to 9 parts water to disinfect them and remove any remaining urushiol. Let the tools air dry outside before putting them away. Make sure to wear rubber gloves when handling the garden tools. Urushiol from the tools can get onto your hands and cause a reaction.

summary: Wear long sleeves, pants, boots, and heavy-duty rubber gloves. Wash any clothing that comes into contact with poison ivy. Clean and disinfect any gardening tools you used on the poison ivy.


Summarize the following:
The Bengal breed’s most distinctive physical feature is their beautiful spotted coat, though sometimes their coats will be marbled. These cats have inherited these spots from their leopard ancestors. All Bengals will, without exception, have a spotted coat. Bengal cats usually have a shine or shimmer to their coat that is most visible in direct sunlight. Breeders often call this the “glitter” effect. All Bengals have spotted coats, but they can come in a variety of colors. The most common color pattern is a brown or golden background color. But these cats can also come in cinnamon-sorrel colors, gray-beige, charcoal, silver, or blue color patterns.  Sometimes the spots link together to resemble more of a striped patterns, but these are still considered Bengal cats. This is often called a marbled pattern variation. Bengal cats also have a striped black-tipped tail. Bengal cats are usually quite large and lean. They have an athletic build and very rarely develop the saggy belly that many other cat breeds get when they gain a little extra weight. Bengal cats typically weigh between 8 lb (3.6 kg) and 15 lb (6.8 kg) once they reach their adult weight.

summary: Check for a spotted coat. Look for the right color pattern. Notice the large, athletic build.

Position your piece of paper horizontally in front of you. Use a ruler to measure out 2 or more equal folds. Make the first fold, to the far left, so that part of the brochure opens towards you. The next fold in the series the brochure should open away from you and so on. This will create an accordion structure that looks like a series of equal length zig-zags from above. This is a good structure for a brochure that needs to contain a large amount of information. It also allows for some flexibility of reading, as a person can start with that first interior fold or move around to the back panels directly from the cover. Complete a traditional gatefold, as described directly above. Then, with the panels shut toward the center, divide the larger back panel into 2 sections. Make a fold down the middle of the page. The result will be a piece of paper that looks like a book, but has 2 hidden folded panels in the inside.  Double-gate brochures are often used when a company needs to present a large amount of information. They can use the outer covers for a catchy design and still have plenty of room for details in the interior panels. This type of fold also goes by the name, “three-parallel gate.” Position the paper horizontally in front of you. Then, measure out and fold it at the halfway point. Turn the paper so that the open seam is to your left with the spine/fold to the right. Fold it once more right in the middle. This will leave you with 4 panels for information.  Many people use this fold when they have a large design that needs to be shown in its entirety. When a reader opens up that initial fold, they will be presented with a full page of space that can be used for this purpose. Since there are clear back and front covers, you can also put less critical information on the back panel without losing precious space. You’ll need to complete 2 back-to-back half folds to create a French folded brochure. Start by folding your page right down the middle horizontally. Then, fold the remaining page in half across the vertical position. This will leave you with 8 same-size panels for content. Some people design French fold brochures with an image on 1 side of the sheet and the information on the other side. You can also just include content on the interior panels and leave the outside ones blank to serve as a total cover. After positioning your paper horizontally, divide it into fourths. As you mark where to make the folds, keep in mind that the left two panels should be just slightly larger than the right two panels. Then, fold the panel to the farthest right inwards. Crease the two folds on the right so that they wrap around the left side encasing it.  The panels are the right side of the page initially must be a little smaller or they will not fit smoothly inside the other ones. This panel format is great if you want readers to be able to quickly move between different sections of your brochure.
summary: Do an accordion or z-fold. Do a double gatefold. Do a double parallel fold. Do a French fold. Do a roll fold.
