INPUT ARTICLE: Article: .You’re probably not going to approach a girl if you believe she’s going to turn you down. And if you do approach her, your lack of confidence will show. Having confidence in yourself gives you the courage you need to approach beautiful girls, and girls find it attractive. Think about all your positive qualities. Take a moment to list at least 10 reasons a beautiful girl would want to go out with you. For example, think about how you can make her laugh, your great smile, how dependable you are, and your sense of adventure. You never know when a beautiful girl is going to cross your path, so try to always look as good as possible. You don’t have to change your style or buy a new wardrobe or even dress up, but you do want to make sure you practice good hygiene and present yourself well.  Make sure your hair is combed, breath fresh, face clean. Sometimes you might not look your best (maybe you just came from playing soccer) but you can still present yourself well by your attitude. Practicing how you will approach a beautiful girl makes it easier to do once the time presents itself.  Think about what you will say and how you will say it. Rehearse the exchange in your mind and out-loud until you are comfortable.  Practice in the mirror or with a close friend. Video tape yourself to hear your voice tone and pace. Try different variations of what you want to say. For example, you might practice, “Can I contact you sometime?”; “Is it okay if I contact you?”; “How can I contact you?”; “Is it alright if I contact you?” and figure out which one feels most comfortable for you to say.

SUMMARY: Believe in yourself Always look your best. Rehearse.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Mortar and pestles are usually made in a matching set. The mortar is a small bowl and the pestle is a wand with a curve that's perfectly shaped to grind smoothly against the mortar. The instrument may be made from wood, stone or ceramic, and you'll want to choose your material based on your culinary needs and personal preferences.  Ceramic mortar and pestles are capable of grinding spices very finely, but they're also more fragile than other types.  Wood mortar and pestles are durable, but they're also slightly porous, and subject to stains. It's also possible for the flavor of one spice to stay present in the mortar between uses, tainting the flavor of the next spice you grind. Stone mortar and pestles also grind very finely, but unless they're conditioned properly, fine particles of stone can get ground into the spices. Do you want to crush large amounts of spices, seeds, and nuts, or only small amounts? You will find varying sizes from palm size to bowl size, and it may even be handy to have two different sizes if you have the space and budget for it. If you plan to grind a very large amount of spices, getting a spice grinder may be more suitable for your needs. A mortar and pestle is best for just enough spices to create whatever dish or spice mix you immediately want to use.

SUMMARY:
Pick the right material for your needs. Choose the size you want.
