INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If there is a part of your face or body that you particularly want to emphasize, use a photo editing application to zoom in on it, then save the edit.  Most smart phones and computers have photo editing software available, most of which is very user-friendly. Any parts of the photograph that are not flattering can be cropped out.  If you took the photo with one arm, it’s usually best to crop the arm out of the picture, as it will look enlarged.  If you think your hair looks crazy, crop it out.  No one has to see the photos as you take them: don’t be afraid to edit before you share. Many photo-sharing websites have built-in filtering options.  These will alter the appearance of your photo, bring out different colors and changing brightness and contrast.  Experiment with different filters until you find one that makes your photo look the best. In addition to general photo editing software and applications, there are also applications that are made specifically for touching-up portraits.  With these editing software programs, you can remove blemishes, eliminate red eye, and perform other touch-ups to even your skin tone and perfect your photo. While most people hope that their photos are ‘not’ blurry, sometimes a little selective blurring can improve your photo.  By leaving part of the picture in focus and blurring other parts, you can direct the viewer to focus on what you’d like to emphasize and you can reduce the emphasis on other things, like awkward backgrounds or unflattering traits.

SUMMARY: Zoom in on an area. Crop out unflattering items. Use a filter. Touch-up your picture. Blur your photo.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Clip the corners so that they will not be bulky, and press the batting down onto the glued edges. Allow the glue to dry.
Summary: Evenly coat the inside of the front cover of the album, including the edges and the spine, with a thin layer of white glue. Lay the piece of batting flat and position the glued front cover of the album on it, with the edges just inside the edges of the batting. Repeat step 1 for the outside back cover of the album. Bring the batting over the spine, keeping it taut and smooth, and press it down over the glued back cover. Trim the batting (if necessary) so that it will just wrap around the edges of the cover.

If you have a cushion or pillow that recommends washing the removable Sunbrella fabric in a machine, ensure that all the zippers are closed. Put the items in your machine on a cold wash cycle. Run a delicate cycle with the usual amount of mild laundry detergent. Remove the items from the machine and let them air dry. Avoid drying the Sunbrella fabric in the dryer, since this may get the fabric too hot. Get a large mixing bucket and pour in 1 gallon (3.78 liters) of water. Add 1 cup (236 ml) of bleach and 1/4 cup (60 ml) of mild dishwashing soap. Stir this mixture and put some of it into a spray bottle. Spray the Sunbrella fabric and let it soak in for 15 minutes. Then use a soft bristle brush or sponge to clean the mildew. Spray the fabric with water to rinse away the solution and let it air dry. If you have mildew on a part of the fabric, it's a good idea to treat the entire piece of fabric. This will prevent water rings and stains from forming. Many basic stains can be removed by spraying a soapy solution over it. Combine 1/4 cup (60 ml) of mild dishwashing liquid with 1 gallon (3.78 liters) of water. Spray this cleanser over your stain. Then use a sponge, soft towel, or soft bristle brush to rub the soapy solution into the stain and then rinse it clean with water. A simple soapy solution will remove these stains:  Ketchup or mustard Charcoal or pencil marks (vacuum the stain first) Chocolate Coffee or tea Soda or grape juice Raw egg

One-sentence summary -- Put removable Sunbrella fabric in the washing machine. Create a bleach solution to remove mildew. Make a basic soap and water cleanser.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: People who make eye contact are usually the ones who wish to engage in conversation. Eye contact can also help you determine whether a topic of conversation is one that your conversation partner will enjoy. If he begins to seem distracted or look elsewhere, you should consider changing the topic, asking your partner a question, or politely ending the conversation. Silences happen. Feel free to embrace these silences, especially with those with whom you are already close. Don't feel obligated to fill every break in a conversation with your opinions, questions, and stories: sometimes these breaks are natural and positive. Pause every once in a while as you speak. This will allow your partner to change topics, ask you questions, or end the conversation if necessary. Be sure that you are not monologuing. If you are first getting to know somebody, you should withhold your most intimate details until you get to know them better. Oversharing might make you appear gossipy, inappropriate, or shocking. Keep things factual but appropriately intimate until you become better acquainted. Some topics to avoid oversharing about include:  Bodily or sexual functions Recent breakups or relationship turmoil Political and religious opinions Gossip and salacious stories Topics that people do not like discussing in the workplace include personal appearance, relationship status, and socioeconomic status. Political and religious affiliations can also be taboo, depending on the context. Be sensitive to your listener and try to keep things casual and light until you have a better sense of what they are interested in. If you have a funny story to share, make sure that it is brief or that it has something to do with your listener's interests. Just because a topic is interesting to you doesn't make it interesting to others. Feel free to share (briefly) your interests and enthusiasms, and then gauge your listener's responses. Let them ask you follow-up questions (if they are interested in learning more) or change the subject (if they'd rather discuss something else). It is not just your responsibility to keep the conversation going—it takes two to tango. If the other person is really not interested in your conversation, find another person to converse with. Don't beat yourself up over an unsuccessful conversation. Maintain eye contact and listen carefully when your conversation partner is speaking. Do not appear distracted or bored. Show that you are engaged and interested. A good listener is someone who will actually listen and focus on the other person instead of just trying to look engaged. Be present when someone else is speaking. Avoid trying to think of what you are going to say next. Instead, just listen to them. Conversations will go more smoothly if you smile, nod, and show interest with your body language. Don't shift too much, cross your arms, look down at your toes, or stare at your phone. Maintain an appropriate amount of eye contact and face your conversation partner openly.

SUMMARY:
Pay attention to eye contact. Embrace the occasional silence. Create intentional breaks in the conversation. Resist the urge to overshare. Avoid sensitive topics. Avoid long stories or monologues. Take the pressure off yourself. Demonstrate active listening skills. Have open body language.
