INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Though these are a fast way to give your skin some color, the UV rays from the light are harmful for your skin. The FDA and major cancer organizations caution against tanning in this way because of the risk of skin cancer. Even though this might seem like an easy and quick solution, the World Health Organization and other medical research groups caution against their use. Tanning beds are linked to an increased risk of skin cancer. The UV rays emitted by the sunlamps can cause skin cancer. Again, the risk of skin cancer is high for those who sit outside in the sun’s UV rays without proper protection. Pale skin is also typically more prone to sunburn, which increases the risk of melanoma.

SUMMARY: Purchase a tanning light for your home. Use a tanning bed. Go sunbathing.

Depending on your image resolution, Registax will automatically create alignpoints (red circles on the current image preview) that will later be used to register each frame with the rest of the images set.  You can see, in the 'Limit Setup' frame, that  the 'Lowest Quality (%)' parameter is automatically updated by Registax.  Move the horizontal scroll bar for each layer in order to get the picture you like most. For the moon, my filter settings were the following:  Layer 1: 15,0 Layer 2: 12,0 Layer 3: 7,0 Layer 4: 6,0 Layer 5: 5,0 Layer 6: 2,0 You'll find more information on the wavelet filter in Registax here: http://www.astronomie.be/registax/previewv6-3.html Click on this section's figure to compare an original single image and the final image registered and wavelet filtered with Registax 6. Pretty nice improvement, isn't it ?

SUMMARY: Download and install Registax 6 from the following page: Open Registax (you can use the shortcut created on your desktop during the installation process)  Import the selected cropped images (in 'C: Create the Alignpoints by clicking the 'Set Alignpoints' button. Click on the 'Align' button in order to start the alignment process. Click on 'Limit' in order to set the quality threshold for the image stacking process. Click on 'Stack' to perform the stacking task with the default parameters. Use Registax's wavelet filter by clicking the Wavelet tab. Then, click 'Do All' in order to make the Wavelet filter apply on the whole image (the preview just applies to the image center). Don't forget to save the final image by clicking 'Save Image' once you are happy with the result.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Write down all of your major goals that you feel you have achieved and want to achieve. In turn, write down the events in your life that have already happened and that have shaped or affected you. When life brings problems or misfortunes it shapes our belief system and makes us think differently, but it also makes us us. These things you list are organically you, not a simple reflection of society.  This isn't an exercise in wallowing. It's about clarification and identification of issues. These issues might be keeping you from reaching your present potential and letting your true self blossom. Spend a little time clarifying the past in your timeline. A timeline is an incredibly objective method for marking down past occurrences in your life that you consider to be major. You can look at them as formation blocks and as changing experiences along your timeline without imbuing them with too much emotion (as would occur within a diary account). As if writing a résumé, keep it simple, real, and condensed to the major effects or lessons learned from each past incident. When analyzing negative past experiences, focus on what you learned from them. Everyone has these blips in their timeline, but exaggerating or ignoring them won't help you. Instead, recognize that these experiences shaped you. For most people (it's more common than you may think) life is pretty easy to go through while on autopilot; we practically get handed a road map for how reality "works." Go to school, get a job, get married, think this, that, and the other, and boom — hope you had a good time. And that's all well and good — it gets the job done certainly — but it doesn't allow room for you. So sit down with yourself. At the end of the timeline, come up with a few beliefs of yours that aren't based on logic, but are based on what you've been told. We all have them. Now, what do you actually think?  Society has a very covert way of handing us the "misfits", condemning the "losers", idolizing the "beautiful", alienating the "strange." But here's a heads up: These describing words have no basis in reality. How do you feel about the world around you? Think about what you believe to be good and bad — not what anyone else has told you. Feel free to think more concretely. Do you actually agree with your parents' political or religious affiliations? Is having a career really the most important thing to you? Do thick, black glasses really make you feel "cooler?" If the answer is no, great! There's absolutely zero problems with not molding yourself to pre-existing norms. Now all you have to do is unlearn and then relearn. Only this time, relearn based on your gut. Confidence and reliance are at the heart of finding yourself. If you don't have a solid sense of self-worth, you'll listen to what others have to say all the time and to be swayed by their insistence on what is appropriate. Learn to believe in yourself and trust your own feelings. Then, you'll come up with a structure to base your new sense of self on. Remember, be patient with yourself and confident in your abilities. Everything will come with time.  If you have been victimized in the past, confront these issues. They're not going to go away on their own. They might be coloring your approach to daily life, causing you to live up to other people's expectations instead of your own. Start trusting your own judgment and decision-making processes, mistakes and all. We all make mistakes, but through mistakes we find ourselves growing, learning, and reaching our real selves. Start taking responsibility for budgeting, household matters, and planning about the future. People who lack a sense of self tend to disregard the "details" of life with a carefree attitude, believing that things will all sort themselves out. But things don't always sort themselves out. Taking responsibility pulls you back from the precipice and lets you be self-reliant and self-determined, no longer carried along by the waves of fate. Develop your own moral conduct and practice sticking to it. Start by overcoming bad habits.  Stop smoking, over-eating, and abusive drinking. These are examples of lapses or habits that will prevent you from functioning at your peak. They also let you "off the hook" by sidestepping the analysis of why you use these crutches instead of finding better ways to brighten your life. This step may take some major rehabilitation for some individuals but putting it into the too-hard basket won't make it go away. Remember, you can't drive your life forward if you are always gazing through your rear-view mirror! You may find that having all your other affairs in order will help expedite the process to grabbing a firm hold on your identity. So clean your room. Do your homework. Resolve that fight with that friend. Getting everything else out of the way will clear up the path to "me" time. We all have excuses for why we're not growing in the direction we want to be growing — it could be money, school, a job, a relationship, you name it, someone's used it. If you're a busy bee, take strides to clear your schedule so you can sit down and tackle this thing head on. If it's always priority #2, it'll never get done.

SUMMARY:
Create your own life timeline. Distinguish your thoughts from the thoughts of others. Start relying on yourself. Prepare to begin again with a clean slate. Organize your world.
