Before you get to properly repairing your jeans, you'll first need to cut the excess threads, or frayed edges caused by the tear. Take some scissors and try to cut reasonably close; you want to get rid of any protrusions, but you also don't want to lose any material you can otherwise save. Provided you haven't lost much material, you can usually mend smaller rips without using any patches. First, turn your jeans inside out; that way, when you sew, the new seams won't be as visible. Take a sewing needle and thread, and stitch back and forth until the rip is mended. Try to make the stitches as close as possible. If it's available, try to use thread that's the same as the seam as the rest of the jeans. In many cases, this will be a white or black thread. If the rip is in a conspicuous place far away from natural seams, it's recommended you choose a colour that best fits your jeans' regular colour (usually blue or black). Once you get the rip sewn up, you can proceed to cut the extra bits off. Be sure to cut the sewing thread as close to the jean material as you can. If there are any frayed edges you didn't catch the first time around, give them a cut now. Now that you've made the repair, you'll want to seal the jeans with an iron press. This will smooth out any creases and give your pants a fresh feeling of newness.

Q: If you have sudden, severe pain in your abdomen, you should visit the emergency room. Your appendix may have ruptured, which requires medical attention.  Specifically, pay attention to pain in your lower right abdomen or pain that starts at your navel and moves to your lower abdomen. It generally gets worse if you move or cough. You may notice other symptoms, too, such as nausea, vomiting, fever, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, or loss of appetite. Don't ignore the pain in your abdomen, even if you don't think it's severe enough to be appendicitis. It's better to get checked out by a medical professional just in case. If you're just having intermittent abdominal pain, you should still see the doctor. The most common test is an abdominal ultrasound to look for an inflamed appendix. You may also have blood tests, urine tests, a pelvic exam, and a rectal exam, depending on what your doctor suspects the problem is. If it is appendicitis, your doctor may take a wait and see approach, as long as your appendicitis hasn't burst or it isn't too inflamed. If you prefer this approach, talk it over with your doctor. In some cases, doctors are reaching for antibiotics to treat an inflamed appendix. About 3/4 of the time, the patient doesn't need to have their appendix out. The antibiotics help treat the inflammation and relieve the pain. If antibiotics don't help within 24 hours, you'll likely need to undergo surgery to have your appendix removed.
A: Go to the emergency room if you have severe pain. Expect tests when you visit the doctor. Learn the diagnosis. Discuss antibiotics with your doctor.

Article: Quarter round is available in 8 foot (240 cm) long pieces, or 16 foot (490 cm) long pieces. If you don't already know the width of your walls, you will need to measure them. Select pieces that closely match the width of your walls and purchase them.  For most rooms, 8 foot (240 cm) long pieces are easier to work with. Quarter round is available at most home improvement stores. Place your pieces of quarter round on the floor up against the wall. In this position, you can easily mark the locations for your cuts. Make small pencil marks to indicate the places where you will need to trim your quarter round. Each piece of quarter round will end at either a joint, a corner, or a door jamb. Quarter round will always be cut at an angle, usually 45 degrees.  Cut 2 joint pieces at 45-degree angles in the same direction (meaning both angled to the left, or both to the right). These joint pieces should fit together to form a flat line against the wall. Most corners will be 90-degree angles. For most corners, cut corner pieces at 45-degree angles in opposite directions (one to the left and one to the right, so that they fit together). For corners that are very different from 90 degrees, measure the angle with a protractor, and divide this number by 2 to determine the angle of your cuts. If your quarter round will end at an obstruction, cut at a 45-degree angle and attach a quarter round return. Slide a piece of quarter round into your miter box and use the pins to secure it. Locate the slot that represents the correct angle for your cut. Steady the miter box with your non-dominant hand, and hold the saw in your dominant hand. Apply pressure with the saw and move it back and forth over the quarter round until your cut is finished.  A miter box and saw set can be purchased at most home improvement stores, or online. Remember to wear gloves and protective eye wear. Always exercise caution when using a saw.

Select your pieces of quarter round. Line up your quarter round against the wall and make pencil marks. Determine the angle and direction of your cut. Use a miter box and hand saw to cut your quarter round.

Article: Add 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of extra virgin olive oil to a plastic or glass jar with a lid. Next, stir in 2 tablespoons of organic honey and blend until the ingredients are fully mixed. Organic honey offers the most natural scrub, but you can use regular honey instead. When the olive oil and honey are mixed, stir in ½ cup (115 g) of organic sugar. Blend the mixture well until it forms a thick, grainy paste.  You can substitute regular white sugar for the organic sugar. If you prefer a grainy scrub, you can add more sugar. For a smoother scrub, add less sugar. When you’re ready to use the scrub, scoop a small amount out of the jar with your fingers. Rub it into your skin in circular motions for approximately 60 seconds to gently exfoliate. For very dry areas, such as the elbows and feet, you may want to scrub longer than a minute. After you’ve rubbed in the scrub, wash it off with warm water. Gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel to finish up. The olive oil in the scrub helps moisturize the skin, but if your skin is very dry, follow up with lotion or cream to hydrate the skin further.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Mix the olive oil and honey. Add the sugar. Massage the scrub into the skin. Rinse off with water.
