Problem: Article: Under the Hi-Lo method of card counting, each numbered card has a value. Cards two through six are worth one point. Cards seven through nine are worth zero points. The ten card, face cards, and the aces are worth negative one point each.  The idea is that you’ll keep a total value of all the cards on display, and as more face cards are left in the deck you’ll make more blackjacks while the dealer busts more. The Hi-Lo method is a common counting system, but other systems exist that give different point values to certain cards such as aces and fives. Use a single deck of cards. Turn over the cards one by one, adding up the values as you go. If you draw a two, a five, and an ace, you’ll have a value of one. When you reach the end of the deck, your running total should equal zero. Repeat practice until you’re able to keep your total quickly and quietly. Casinos are wise to card counters, so they play blackjack with multiple decks at the same time. The true count takes the running count and divides it by the number of decks in play. This count gives you more of an idea of how much of an advantage you have in betting.  A running count of three is fine in a one-deck game, but this number means less when there are multiple decks since there are more cards to factor that reduce your chances of winning. For example, a seven running count divided by two decks leaves you with a true count of about three. But if there are six decks in play, the true count is only about one. Start off by using a few decks. Flip over the cards one by one and grow accustomed to dividing with fractions. At first you can simply round the division into a general true count, but as you go you’ll become more able to perform more accurate divisions in your head with less effort. An online card counting simulator can help you practice. Some simulators can correct your counting mistakes and track your winnings. Once you feel comfortable keeping a true count, try mimicking the feel of a casino. First, start small. Add a little music or radio chatter. As you grow more capable, bring in a friend, roommate, or partner. Later on you can practice during loud events such as parties. Eventually you’ll be able to carry on conversations while calculating the true count in your mind. When you put your calculations to practice, raise the amount you bet when the count is high in the positives. Remember to remain inconspicuous. Remain natural, talking to other players and the dealer rather than muttering to yourself. Raise your bet by small amounts when you can and lower your bets when you lose. Instead of sitting around at a table for hours, leave when your winning begins to attract suspicion. Card counting is legal but casinos frown upon it because it costs them money.
Summary: Assign values to cards. Practice keeping a running count. Keep a true count. Practice maintaining true counts. Keep a count with distractions. Adjust your betting.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Some people also develop redness and irritation from using baking soda on their underarms. If this happens to you (or even if you just want to try another method), then this recipe is for you. Begin by gathering the necessary ingredients. You’ll need a digital kitchen scale to measure out the ingredients. This recipe calls for:  30g coconut oil 20g Shea butter 10g carrier oil (your preference of almond, castor, or avocado oil all work well) 10g beeswax 15g arrowroot powder 15g food-grade diatomaceous earth 1 vitamin E capsule (400 IU) 10 drops of essential oil If you have a double boiler, you can use it to melt these ingredients together, or you can simply place all of them in a heavy, heat-safe jar and place the jar in a pan of boiling water. Use low heat and stir everything in evenly. The beeswax will take the longest to melt, but have patience. Once the beeswax finally melts and you stir it in, remove the mixture from the heat and give it a couple of minutes to cool—up to five. Before the mix hardens and begins to solidify, mix in the rest of the ingredients (break the vitamin E capsule to add it). Whisk all of the ingredients together well to ensure an even distribution of the materials. If you’ve never tested the essential oil you’ve chosen on your skin before, then try a drop or two on your underarm first and wait several minutes to make sure that it doesn’t irritate your skin at all. This recipe will set into a roll-on solid deodorant fairly quickly. Once the final ingredients are whisked in, you can pour it into a storage container of your choice. A shallow jar will do. You can simply rub some of the deodorant onto your fingers and then apply it to your underarms as needed. If you prefer the familiar, roll-on stick form, then you can pour the mixture into popsicle molds and place them in the freezer for an hour before removing them. Wrap each individual stick in wax paper or parchment paper before storing them to help avoid having them melt together.
Summary:
Gather the ingredients. Melt the coconut oil, Shea butter, carrier oil, and beeswax together. Remove from heat. Add the arrowroot, diatomaceous earth, vitamin E, and your chosen essential oil. Pour the mixture into your chosen storage container.
