In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: To keep your lashes clean and dust-free for the next time that you wear them, it’s important to store them in a protective container. You don’t have to buy a special container, though -- save the plastic case that holds the lashes, as well as the tray with the half-moon shapes for the lashes to curl around. If you lose or misplace the packaging from your lashes, you can purchase reusable protective cases from beauty supply stores and online sites. They often hold more than one pair of lashes, so you can store all of your lashes in one place. Once the lashes are in their packaging, it’s important to store them in the right spot. Heat and strong light can warp the lashes, so you should keep them in a cool, dark spot, such as a dresser drawer, until you want to apply them the next time. Avoid storing your eyelashes in the bathroom, which often gets hot and humid.
Summary: Save the plastic packaging that the lashes come in. Place the lashes in a cool, dark location.

. Active listening is a style of listening in which the listener demonstrates their attentiveness to the speaker. There are many ways you can show attentiveness without speaking.  Maintaining eye contact is a common way of showing that you are listening.  Nodding, smiling, and exhibiting a relaxed posture also suggest that you are listening attentively. Active listeners often use short phrases to show that they understand and are paying attention. Even if you aren't actually interested in the topic, these cues show you are listening politely. Common phrases of encouragement include "Mmm hmm," "I see," "Right," and "Uh-huh." You can show someone you understand and are listening by repeating back to him or her what's been said, or paraphrasing what he or she has just told you. If you don't actually understand what you've just been told, you can also ask for clarification. This also sends the message that you are listening. When the opportunity presents itself, you will probably wish to either end the conversation or change the subject if you aren't actually interested in the topic.  Offer a reason for ending the conversation, such as a task you need to resume or a person you need to find  If this is your first time talking to someone, you can also end a conversation with "It was nice meeting you."  You can also tell the person that you really want to hear more about the topic of conversation and you'll call them tomorrow. Then follow through on your promise so that they know that you care.

Q: You can get inspired by looking at comics you love and enjoy as a reader. You may be a fan of Marvel comics, with a preference for a particular superhero or series. Or you may be more interested in Japanese comics, such as manga, and use manga titles as inspiration for your comic. Study the drawing style and the storytelling of the comics you admire. You could then use them as a jumping off point for your own comic or get inspired to make a comic you have already made better. You may also think about creating your own version of an existing comic book character, such as a female version of a character or a character who is trans or queer instead of straight. You may put your own on spin on an existing character, being sure not to copy the character exactly. Try to put your original take on the character so it feels like your own. You can also get inspiration by adapting an existing myth or fable for your comic. You may choose a myth that is obscure and not very well known to your audience, such as a Native American myth or a Japanese myth, and use elements of it in your comic. Leaning on an existing myth could allow you to get creative with interesting source material. You may also put an original spin on an existing myth or fable that is well known, such as your own take on the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. Doing this could allow you to create a comic that is unique and relatable to your readers. You may also find inspiration by adapting an original work you have written, such as short story or a poem, and turning it into a comic. You may use the storytelling in your story to plan out the comic and use the same characters. You may also improve an existing comic to make it better by using other story ideas you may have in the comic. Combining several story ideas or adding more ideas or characters to the comic could make it better.
A: Study comics you admire. Look to existing myths and fables for inspiration. Take an original story and turn it into a comic.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Insert the SIM card for the new network to check that the phone is locked. Many S3s are actually unlocked out of the box, so checking first can save you a lot of time. Your phone must be running Android 4.1.1 (It doesn't work with some Android 4.3 either) or later in order for this method to work. You can check your device’s version by opening Settings, and then scrolling to the bottom and selecting About Device. Look for Android Version to find your version number.  To update your phone, open the Settings and then scroll down to About Device. In the next menu, select System Updates and then Check for Updates. Your phone will attempt to update over the network automatically. Perform the network update over a wireless network, since your new SIM doesn't have any connectivity yet. You cannot unlock S3s that run on the CDMA network. In the US, this is Sprint. AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile all run on the GSM network, which allows you to SIM-unlock the phone. This method is not guaranteed to work with all versions of the S3, but you will do no damage in trying. You will need to enter a code in the dialer to open the Service menu. Once the dialer is open, enter the following code: *#197328640# This will open the maintenance main menu. If you select the incorrect option, press the Menu button on your phone and select Back.

This will return you to the NETWORK LOCK menu. Wait about one minute after selecting this option. After you have waited about a minute, reboot the phone. You won’t receive any confirmation that the process worked. If your phone connects to the new SIM card's network, then the unlock process worked.
