Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Check the weather, planning accordingly. Avoid large meals within an hour of swimming. Apply 30 SPF sunscreen 15-20 minutes before heading out, even if it is cloudy. Pack up a towel, swimsuit, and waterproof shoes. Bring water to stay hydrated. Stuff phones, electronics, and valuables in resealable plastic bags. Protect your hair from salt or chlorine with watered-down conditioner.

Answer: If you know it is going to be hot and sunny, make sure you have sunscreen and water. If there is a chance of thunderstorms later on you can still go swimming. However, make sure you have a plan for inclement weather, such as shelter to get under, and that everyone you're with knows where to meet if you hear thunder. The dreaded swimmer's cramp is caused when your body is both trying to digest food and exert itself to stay afloat. Avoid this by avoiding large meals, particularly greasy, fatty foods like hamburgers, cheese, etc. that take a long time to digest.  This doesn't mean you need to swim hungry. Rather, try to graze and eat lightly over time instead of loading up on one big meal. For example, eat a banana. It gives you extra potassium and energy! UV radiation still penetrates cloud cover, so don't assume you're fine just because the sun isn't shining. Make sure you are using a waterproof "sport" sunscreen that won't wash off as soon as you get in the water. Remember to NOT put any kind of moisturizer before swimming. Your swim cap and goggles can easily fall off.  While swimming, reapply sunscreen every 30 minutes to prevent burning. If you're going to change at the pool or beach, you should consider an extra shirt or pair of underwear as well, in case your dry clothes accidentally get wet. If you want goggles, be sure to pack them as well. It doesn't matter where you're swimming, it is always a good idea to have drinkable water on hand. Dehydration causes exhaustion, grumpiness, and, when left untreated, serious health issues. It seems obvious, but make sure you have drinkable water before you go into the water.  At the very least, aim to drink 16oz or more of water in the hour leading up to your swim. 1 water bottle per person should be good for 1-2 hours of activity. To be safest as you pack, just assume that everything you bring is going to get wet. If you are taking things like your mobile phone that can't get wet, take them in a separate small bag, pockets of your clothes or a waterproof bag which you can put in your swimming bag. Your hair is sponge, absorbing moisture when you're in the water. To prevent absorbing salt water or chlorine, however, you can "pre-load" your hair follicles with conditioner. To do so, simply mix up your conditioner with some water in a spray bottle, then coat your hair right before getting into the pool or ocean. You hair should come out noticeably cleaner.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose the kind of cheese you want on your sandwich. Have your sandwich toasted if you’d like it heated. Start with larger vegetables to add to your sandwich. Cover your larger vegetables with smaller toppings. Choose your sauces based on your preferred flavor. Finish your sandwich with oils or spices if you’d like. Ask them to make it like the photo if you don’t want to choose your toppings.

Answer: Every Subway has American and Monterey cheddar cheese, but most of them also have mozzarella, cheddar, pepper jack, provolone, and swiss. Select a cheese that you think goes best with the meat on your sandwich. If you’re not sure what kind of cheese belongs on your sandwich, ask your Subway artist what it traditionally comes with. After you pick your bread, menu item, and cheese, your sandwich artist will ask you if you’d like it toasted. Deciding between toasted or untoasted boils down to whether you want your sandwich to be warm or not. The oven will make your bread a little crispy and usually adds a delightful texture to your sandwich. You’ll want to start with the larger vegetables so that your sandwich is properly stacked and won’t fall apart. Start by choosing from lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, or red onions.  You can always specify how much of an ingredient you want to add. Say, “Only a little lettuce” or, “Please add more tomatoes,” and they’ll adjust your order accordingly. You may get charged extra for adding an additional serving of veggies, but not for taking some off of your sandwich. Once your bigger toppings are added, you’ll be given the option to add pickles, olives, banana peppers, or jalapenos. Add whatever toppings you enjoy to your sandwich. Remember, jalapenos will add some spice to your sandwich while banana peppers tend to be sweet. Subway offers chipotle, light mayonnaise, regular mayonnaise, ranch, oil, and vinaigrette. They also have mustard, vinegar, and sweet onion, which are fat-free choices. Choose whichever sauce sounds good on your sandwich.  Some Subway restaurants have additional sauces, like barbeque, honey mustard, or Italian. If you’re looking for a specific sauce, ask to see if they have it even if it’s not listed on the menu.  Try to avoid mixing sweet toppings with spicy or salty sauces and vice versa. A Sweet Onion Teriyaki Chicken sandwich with banana peppers and olives probably won’t pair well with a spicy chipotle sauce. Oil and vinegar are listed as sauces on Subway’s menu, but they’re usually offered to the customer at the end of the sandwich-making process. They’ll usually be offered alongside oregano, salt, pepper, and other spices. Consider adding some spices or oils if you want a final dimension of texture or flavor on your sandwich. Alternatively, if you don’t feel like dealing with any of the choices involved in making your sandwich, you can ask your sandwich artist to make your sub the way it is in the photo. They’ll automatically add the traditional ingredients and you won’t have to worry about choosing each individual topping.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wash and condition your hair. Decide on the size of your twists. Prepare your first section. Start twisting your first section. Finish your first twist. Repeat the twisting process on the rest of your hair.

Answer:
Just like with other braiding styles, your hair needs to be well-moisturized and de-tangled prior to starting your 2-strand twists. Wash your hair as per usual, and then use a deep conditioning cream to moisturize it.  Your 2 strand twists will be easier to style if they are wet or at least slightly damp, so do not blow dry or air-dry your hair completely before styling. Use a comb to remove any tangles or knots that might be present. There are many options when it comes to braiding your 2-strand twists. The most obvious decision you’ll need to make is how large you want your braids to be. You can do ‘micro twists,’ which use dozens of teeny-tiny braids, or you can do jumbo twists that use 1-inch (2.5 cm) sections or larger of hair. Small twists will last much longer than large twists, but the process is obviously more time-consuming. Decide what size you want based on your personal style and the amount of time you have to work on your hair. Use a rat-tail comb to part a section of hair to your desired size. The section of hair should be a square in shape. Rub a bit of style gel or cream through your hair and mist it with a little water and olive oil to reduce frizz and make it easier to manipulate. Use your comb to brush through this section several times, to make sure that the hair is completely smooth and tangle-free. Split your section of hair into 2 equal strands. Begin winding them tightly away from your head in a rope-like pattern. You’ll simply wrap the strands simultaneously around each other to create a twist. To keep it tight, you’ll want to pull the twist tight to your scalp as you work. When you near the end of your strand and begin running out of hair to twist, you will need to switch to doing a 1-strand twist to secure the ends. To do this, take the 2 strands and combine them together (there shouldn’t be much hair left to do this with). Then, wrap this section around your finger many times, in the same direction you were twisting the 2 strands of hair. This will curl the ends of the hair in the same direction, securing them in place. This method works best if your hair is naturally curly rather than chemically relaxed or permed. Continue working your way across your scalp, creating your 2-strand twists. The process is the exact same for each twist, just make sure that you section off equal amounts of hair so that all your twists are the same size.  Section a small piece of hair, comb it, and apply your gel or cream. Split your section into 2 equal strands. Wrap the strands around each other to form a rope-braid. Twist the ends of the 2-strand braid together to secure them and prevent the braid from unravelling.
