Problem: Article: . Think about your current family relationships. Identify the ones that are toxic, and distinguish them from the ones that are simply difficult. You may want to work with a mental health professional if you feel comfortable with this. A mental health professional can help you to identify toxic relationships.  Abuse, constant negativity, and manipulation are several indications that a relationship is toxic. The line between a difficult relationship and a toxic one can be blurry. Trust your own judgment and keep in mind that some people may try to minimize what you are experiencing. However, if you know someone is abusive, then do not accept other people's excuses for them. Think about whether you can find ways to deal with dysfunctional family dramas without cutting relatives out of your life. Consider skipping certain family gatherings, standing up to bullies, or ignoring conflicts instead of arguing with your relatives.  Finding a simple solution may not always be possible. However, de-escalating negative situations is often less stressful than cutting ties completely. Look into ALANON, which is a group that started as a way to help and support the family members of people with substance abuse. However, this organization has expanded to help people in all sorts of situations. Before you detach yourself from a relative, think about how the action may affect the rest of your life, including your other family relationships. Make sure you're prepared to deal with the potential negative consequences of cutting ties.  For example, you might choose to cut ties with one sibling who has toxic tendencies and your others sibling may see this as an affront. As a result, you lose two siblings. You will have to weigh the costs of whether the toxic person is worth keeping around to preserve other relationships. Try making a pros and cons list to help you determine if severing the relationship is worth the benefits and costs. Keep it somewhere that you can read over it often. You may also want to ask a friend or family member to help you with making the list because they might think of some things that you would not. Just as breaking away from dysfunctional relatives will cause emotional pain or discord, it might also bring you peace. This is especially true if your relatives tend to muddy your life with their toxic behaviors.  For instance, if you have family members who steal, lie, cheat, bully, or abuse drugs and alcohol, they likely cause you more stress than joy. Your mental health and peace of mind will benefit from stepping away from these people. Look over your pros and cons list if you have already made one. If not, then make a pros and cons list to help you understand the costs and benefits if you decide not to cut ties. Read over your list often and ask a friend or family member to help you add to it.
Summary: Identify toxic relationships Brainstorm solutions. Think carefully about the costs of severing a relationship. Come to terms with the consequences of not cutting ties.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Look under your plants for armyworms and/or signs of their frass (droppings). You may also find larvae hiding under plant debris. If you are growing barley or wheat, you may find worms inside of the heads.  Newly hatched armyworms may have no distinguishing marks, but older armyworms will be either brown with yellow stripes or green with light stripes. Armyworm droppings resemble black pepper. If armyworms have infested your hay field, mowing the field is the first course of action. As the hay dries, the armyworms lose interest in it as a food source and move on. You can apply insecticides to the field using either ground or aerial equipment. The following insecticides have been proven effective on controlling armyworms:  Asana XL should be used only on corn crops and should not be applied within 21 days of harvest. Permethrin is also only for use on corn and should not be used within 30 days of harvest. Carbaryl (Sevin) may be applied either to corn or wheat. Do not do more than two applications and do not it apply within 21 days of harvest. Ethyl is useful for corn, sorghum and all small grains but can only be applied with an aerial application. Do not apply ethyl within 12 days of harvesting corn or sorghum, and within 15 days of harvesting small grains. After you apply the ethyl, post notices that the field is being treated, and stay out of it for three days. Lorsban can be applied to corn and sorghum. Do not allow livestock to graze in the field for at least 15 days after you apply lorsban. Do not feed meat or dairy animals grains treated with Lorsban until at least 35 days have passed. Lannate or Malathion can be used on all crops. Do not spray these insecticides within seven days of harvest and stay out of the field for two days after treatment. Methyl is used for aerial application on corn and small grains only. Do not apply it within 12 days of a corn harvest, or 15 days of a small grain harvest. Post notices in the fields, and stay out of them for two days. Warrior can be used in corn, sorghum or wheat fields. Do not apply it within 20 days of corn harvest or 30 days of sorghum or wheat harvest.

SUMMARY: Look for armyworms and/or droppings. Mow your hay fields. Use insecticide.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Some schools have designated areas where posters have to be. In other schools, you can get creative. Talk to teachers or school administrators to find out. Look into the different ways you can hang your poster up so it's secured, but won't damage anything when it's taken down. You want to get the maximum coverage, so put your posters up strategically. If there's a bulletin board with lots of posters already on it, you might want to look for another place. Have your friends stand back from the walls to see if your poster is visible in the places you choose. If you can, choose unusual locations to put your posters. Some different places might be:  Bathrooms Stairwells Outside Make sure that no one takes them down. Have extras in case you need to put more up or see places later that you think could use a poster. Once the election is over, it's a good idea to go around taking down your posters and getting them recycled. Hopefully you won, but even if you didn't, you know more for your next campaign!
Summary: Find out where you are allowed to put posters. Enlist your friends to help you place posters. Monitor your posters.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The amaryllis should lose its foliage as the summer ends and autumn begins. When this begins to happen, start giving the plant slightly smaller quantities of water, but do not allow the soil to dry out completely. Trim the yellow or brown leaves once they have withered by cutting them off next to the neck of the bulb. Allow living green leaves to remain on the plant. Once the weather is cooler and most of the leaves have died, bring the amaryllis indoors. Place the pot in a cool, dark area between 40 and 50ºF (5–10ºC), such as a basement. If you do not have a suitable area for a pot, you may carefully remove the bulb and roots from the soil and place it in the crisper (vegetable drawer) of a refrigerator.  Always bring the amaryllis in before the first frost, which typically occurs at 32ºF or 0ºC night temperature. If storing in your refrigerator, do not store fruit in your refrigerator at the same time. Many fruits, especially apples, release chemicals that can sterilize your amaryllis bulb. Leave the amaryllis in the cool, dark environment for at least six weeks. Do not water it during this time, but do remove any remaining leaves as they die. This is the bulb's dormant period, and the plant must experience this in order to bloom again. If you want the amaryllis to rebloom by a particular date, such as Christmas, remove the bulb from the cool area at least six weeks before that day.
Summary:
Reduce watering gradually as the leaves die. Remove the dead leaves. Bring the plant to a cool indoor area. Leave the bulb alone for 6–8 weeks. Move on to the next section after 6–8 weeks.
