Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Enroll in a class that explores your hobby or passion. Read the great classics of literature. Seek spiritual guidance.

Answer: Maybe you regret not finishing your Arts degree. Or perhaps you are looking to get better at public speaking. A class environment, with a teacher, other students, and deadlines, may help to give your life a sense of order and discipline. You’ll also work on improving your self esteem by studying subjects you are invested in and looking to get better at.  Many universities and colleges offer adult classes in a variety of subjects. There are also many adult learning classes available online. If you decide to do an online course, you will likely have limited face to face contact with a teacher and other students. You will also not get the benefits of in class discussions. If you are currently enrolled in a degree or field of study, but are looking to explore another subject, talk to your program advisor about an independent study. These types of courses can be set up in many departments and can focus on almost any subject you are interested in. Healing your life can also be an inward journey, where you take time to be alone and be immersed in great writing or a great story. There are many lists out there of what is considered the greatest classic novels or works of literature. Several titles will always be considered “classics”, such as Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird or John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath. Work your way through these lists at your own pace, or set a challenge for yourself to read 50 books in one year. Look at:  TIME Magazine’s 100 All-Time Greatest Novels.  Modern Library’s 100 Best Novels.  The Guardian’s 100 Greatest Novels of All Time.  10 classic novels that won’t put you to sleep. This doesn’t necessarily mean you need to have a firm belief in God or a clear idea of what it means to be spiritual. In fact, a good spiritual guide will be willing to listen to your problems and offer advice, regardless of your beliefs.  Look online for spiritual words of wisdom, forums where others share their life advice, or websites devoted to spiritual guidance. You can also seek out a spiritual mentor by visiting your local church or contacting a local spiritual leader in your community.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Take over-the-counter pain relievers. Consider adding iron supplements. Ask your doctor about prescription medications. Take low-dose birth control pills. Consider gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists, especially if you are planning a medical procedure.

Answer: Acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and naproxen are mild pain medications that are available without a prescription. These agents are often recommended by healthcare providers to help with pain associated with menstrual discomfort and uterine fibroids.  Use caution not to exceed the recommended dosage and watch for side effects mentioned in the product literature. If you experience difficult and painful periods, start the acetaminophen, ibuprofen, or naproxen a few days before your period starts. This may help to further reduce some of the discomfort. If your pain and discomfort is associated with heavy menstrual bleeding, you may be anemic. Your doctor can do simple blood tests to determine if your iron level is below normal. Over-the-counter iron supplements can help restore your iron level back to normal. Common symptoms of anemia caused by excessive blood loss include fatigue and weakness, pale skin, feeling dizzy or lightheaded, headaches, cold hands and feet, and shortness of breath and chest pain in some cases. Stronger pain medications and anti-inflammatory agents are available with a prescription and can help make the symptoms more manageable. In some cases, prescription medications can help to slow the growth of some types of uterine fibroids. Low-dose oral contraceptives, or birth control pills, as well as progesterone injections, have been successfully used to help with fibroid pain and may be an option for you. Low-dose birth control pills contain smaller amounts of estrogen so they do not cause the fibroids to grow, plus they help to control the menstrual flow during periods. Studies have shown that some women may experience a decrease in fibroid size after receiving a shot of Depo-Provera, whereas others may experience an increase in fibroid size. Drugs classed as gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists can help to shrink fibroids. These drugs are given by injection, nasal spray, or implanted device. Gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists are commonly used prior to surgery to help reduce the size of the fibroids. Side effects such as thinning of the bones prevent these products from being used long term. Other common side effects include hot flashes, depression, insomnia, decreased sex drive, joint pain, and the absence of monthly periods. Once the drug is stopped, the fibroids quickly grow back.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Know the right equation to use. Fill in the known information. Solve the equation.

Answer: In order to solve any physics problem you must know which equation to use. Writing down all of the known information is the first step to finding the right equation. If you are given the final velocity, acceleration, and distance, you can use the following equation:  Initial velocity: Vi = √ [Vf2 - (2 * a * d)]  Understand what each symbol stands for.   Vi stands for “initial velocity”  Vf stands for “final velocity”  a stands for “acceleration”  d stands for “distance” Once you have written the known information and determined the proper equation, you can fill in values for the appropriate variables. Carefully setting up each problem and writing out every step of the process is important. If you make a mistake, you can easily find it by looking back at all of your previous steps. With all of the numbers in place, use the proper order of operations to finish the problem. If you’re allowed, use a calculator to limit the number of simple math mistakes.  For example: An object accelerating north at 5 meters (16.4 ft) per second squared traveled 10 meters (32.8 ft), ending up at a final velocity of 12 meters (39.4 ft) per second. Calculate the object's initial velocity.  Write the known information:  Vi = ?, Vf = 12 m/s, a = 5 m/s2, d = 10 m   Square the final velocity. Vf2= 122 = 144 Multiply the acceleration by the distance and the number two. 2 * a * d = 2 * 5 * 10 = 100 Subtract this product from your previous one. Vf2 - (2 * a * d) = 144 – 100 = 44 Take the square root of your answer. = √ [Vf2 - (2 * a * d)] = √44 = 6.633 Vi = 6.633 m/s north Write your answer correctly. Include a unit of measurement, usually meters per second or m/s, as well as a direction the object was traveling in. Without providing information about the direction, you only have a measurement of speed rather than velocity.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Pretend you don't want to let loose of the news. Spread it around smartly. Do it quietly. Tell each person they can't tell anyone. Consider only telling a half-truth.

Answer:
Gossiping requires a fine balance. You don't want to seem like an enthusiastic gossiper, because you want to Try to maintain your relationship as someone who is trustworthy to speak to. But at the same time, you also want to spread it around, because, well, it's fun. So, you've got to be a good actor.  When you approach some gossipy territory in a conversation, start looking over your shoulder, as if you're worried someone will hear. Ask if the other person has heard the news first. If they haven't heard, make a worried face and wring your hands. Say, "Oh, well, I really shouldn't say. It isn't right to gossip." When you get ready, lean in close and start with, "Well, now, you didn't hear this from me..." Your audience will be locked in. When you have good gossip, you can't just tell everyone you know, unless you want it to blow back on you. Besides, you don't have to tell a lot of people, just a select few.  If your good friend told you something in confidence, don't tell all your other friends. Instead, tell someone at work. If someone at work did something super-embarrassing, don't tell all your coworkers, tell your friends. When and if the gossip does eventually get around, everyone will forget who they heard it from originally, most of the time, but you want to be sure to distance yourself from it as much as possible. Gossip shouldn't be something that you broadcast or speak about loudly, for everyone to hear. Make sure you take people aside, use very quiet voices, and don't let anyone you don't know hear what you're talking about. Even if you're spreading gossip, it's important to Try to limit it as much as possible. This goes for gossiping online, even more so. Private messages of gossip? Ok, maybe. Posting on your own, or someone else's board publicly? Just don't. Treat your gossiping like you're treating a friend to privileged information, not like you're just broadcasting gossip to anyone who will listen. Make sure that everyone you tell knows that this isn't something to spread around, even if they plan on spreading it around like you are. This is the code of the gossipers. In some cases, you can learn to suggest your gossip more than you trumpet it. Start telling the detail you want to spread around, but stop just short of telling the whole story. Tell enough to let the other person figure it out, but not so much that you'll need to feel bad about yourself. If you know someone at school just made out with someone else, you don't have to say so to spread it around. Try this: "Did you hear about James and Janet last weekend? I heard they got pretty up close and personal. Not that you heard it from me."
