INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Every school has a different policy regarding cheating. You want to make sure cheating is worth the risk for you before attempting to do so. Read up on the penalties for cheating in your school's handbook.  Some schools may give you a failing grade if you get caught cheating. This can affect your report card grade at the end of the term. You may also be sent to the principal's office. Your parents may be called, leading to trouble at home. If you're in college, you may receive a failing grade for the semester in the event you cheat. Everyone slips up once in awhile, but cheating can be a real problem if it's habitual. The more often you cheat, the more likely you are to get caught. Cheating can also prevent you from learning valuable information.  It's a bad idea to cheat at all. However, if you feel the need to do so, try not to cheat on every test or exam. Avoid cheating unless there were specific, extenuating circumstances that prevented you from studying. There is no shame in asking for help. If you're cheating because you don't understand a subject, reach out to someone for guidance.  You can start seeing a tutor. If your school offers free tutoring programs, make use of those. You can also ask your teacher for help. Most teachers do not want to see their students struggle. Tell your parents and friends if you're struggling with a class. They can help support you as you try to improve your performance.

SUMMARY: Learn the consequences of cheating. Do not let cheating become a habit. Ask for help if you're struggling.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To determine what kind of pump you need, first measure across the width of the head of your waterfall. Then, measure vertically from the top of the waterfall to the water’s surface. Finish by deciding how quickly you want water to flow through the system. Use these numbers to calculate the correct pump rating you need for your waterfall.  Search for a waterfall pump calculator online, then plug in your estimates to figure out the minimum pump rating you need for your waterfall to function. A medium flow requires a pump discharge rate of 1,500 US gal (5,700 L) per hour, or gph. Use a 1,000 US gal (3,800 L) estimate for a slower flow and a 2,000 US gal (7,600 L) estimate for a heavier flow. On average, the pump needs to handle 1,500 US gal (5,700 L) per 1 ft (0.30 m) of width at your waterfall’s head. Check the owner’s manual with your pump for specific setup instructions. You usually need a rubber hose that is long enough to run from the pump to the top of your waterfall. Measure this distance as well as the opening on the pump. After getting a hose with the same size opening, fit it directly over the pump’s opening.  If your pump is inside an enclosure, use a 2 in (5.1 cm) hole saw to cut a few holes in the enclosure. Keep the holes about 4 in (10 cm) apart to let water into the pump. Plant the pump deeply inside the lower pond or basin and make sure the hose is long enough to reach the top of your waterfall. An easy way to build one is by using a heavy-duty, 3-sided plastic storage bin. Face the open end of the bin toward the waterfall and lower basin. Then, drill a hole the same size as the adapter on your hose. Finish the valve by connecting the hose using a rubber washer and a bead of silicone adhesive.  To secure the hose further, add a steel lock-nut and a hose clamp. Valves are a great way to get the water flowing down the waterfall, especially in a long stream. In most cases, valves are more for aesthetic purposes rather than a necessity for controlling the water flow. Rest the rocks on the edges of the ponds or basins, using them to pin the liner in place. Push them as close together as possible to hide the liner while preventing the water from splashing out. Also, arrange the rocks to cover the pump, hose, and other components you wish to hide. Place the rocks carefully to avoid blocking or crushing the hose and other components. They are heavy and have to be placed with care. Hide the components between the rocks instead of piling rocks on top of them. Place some medium-sized rocks at the top of the waterfall or over the steps in a stream. Arrange them in a semicircular pattern, if possible, along the edge of each drop. Flat rocks are a great choice in most waterfalls since they look good and are easy to fit together. Pile all of the rocks as closely together as possible so the water flows around them on its way down to the lower basin. Spread some expanding foam underneath the rocks as needed to hold them in place over the liner. Also, use the foam to fill in any gaps, forcing the water to move over the rocks instead of through them. Open up your bags of gravel and begin pouring them directly onto the underlayment. You need plenty of bags to cover over both basins and the waterfall, so don’t hold back. Make the gravel layer at least 3 in (7.6 cm) deep to hide the liner. When you’re done, smooth the gravel layer out as much as possible with your hands so it looks even.  Pack plenty of gravel and dirt around larger stones to help hold them in place. Remember that the gravel is much lighter than the larger stones, so it’s better for holding down and hiding hoses and other components. Spray down your entire waterfall until the water rises above the gravel and the pump underneath it. With water in the basin, you can safely activate the pump. Run the pump while continuing to spray the stones until the water looks clean. Tidy up your waterfall as needed before sitting down to enjoy its soothing sounds. Spraying the stones dislodges dirt and other debris in the waterfall. The rocks and pebbles help aerate and purify the water while it moves through the system.

SUMMARY: Calculate the pump strength you need to circulate water. Install and connect the pump before placing it in the basin. Connect the upper chamber flow valve if you plan on using one. Line the outer edges of any basins with large boulders. Build the waterfalls by forming shelves out of rocks. Spread gravel and tamp it down to cover the rest of the liner. Wash the rocks with a gentle spray to fill the waterfall.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: When you visit a stranger's Facebook profile, you may notice that the "Add Friend" button is missing. This is because that person has set their security settings so that they only receive friend requests from people who share at least one mutual friend. You'll need to be friends with at least one person on this person's friends list before you can send a friend request. Many people have their friends list public, allowing you to send friend requests to people on their friends list. You'll see a list of all the person's friends (if their list is public). If the "Friends" tab does not display any friends, you'll have to hope that you eventually make some mutual friends with this person. Look for posts that they comment on and send friend requests to the original poster. Once at least one accepts, you'll be able to send a friend request to the original person. When you view a friend's list of friends, you'll see all of your mutual friends at the top. After you scroll through your mutual friends, you'll see people that have mutual friends with you, sorted by the number of mutual friends you both have. You'll be able to send friend requests to any of these people by tapping or clicking "Add Friend."

SUMMARY:
Add mutual friends if you can't add someone as a friend. Tap or click the "Friends" tab on their profile page. Find people to add. Send friend requests. Add friends from your own friends' lists.
