INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There’s no “correct” way to be transgender. How you dress, act, and present yourself is totally up to you! Decide how you feel comfortable expressing yourself, and do what makes you happy. For instance, you might decide you want to dress as your true gender. Alternatively, you may just pick clothes you like, regardless of which gender they were made for. There are no rules for how you have to dress or act. It’s okay to adapt how you dress or act as you learn more about yourself. For instance, you might prefer to stick with an androgynous look for the time being, but it’s okay to try gendered clothing if you decide that’s right for you. This also applies to transitioning. You might want to start hormones as soon as you can and may want to someday have gender affirming surgery. However, it’s okay if you choose not to do so. instead of trying to conform. Don't feel ashamed of being who you are! You’re just as important as anyone else, and you deserve to live a life that makes you happy. Dress how you like, enjoy your interests, and don’t worry if others will approve or not. Your gender identity is valid, and there is no shame in pursuing your own mental health and happiness. As an example, you might try out for the school play, the school dance team, or the cheerleading squad if that’s something you enjoy, even if you don’t feel like you fit the “typical” look. You don’t need to take hormones as a transgender person, but they’re a big help if you plan to transition. Look for a doctor in your area who is experienced in treating transgender patients or who supports the transgender community. Discuss your goals when it comes to transitioning and ask what you need to start hormone therapy, if you want it.  Visit websites for the transgender community to see if you can find a recommendation for a doctor. You might also be able to get connected with a doctor through your local LGBTQ+ group. If your parents are supportive, ask them to help you screen your doctors so you can make sure you find someone who’s supportive and respectful of your needs.

SUMMARY: Define what being transgender means to you. Be yourself Talk to a doctor if you want to begin hormone therapy.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Intarsia knitting requires multiple small balls of yarn. You can purchase individual balls of the same color if it is a large project, or you can create small bundles (also known as bobbins) out of one large ball of yarn. For frequent color changes, small bundles or yarn wound onto bobbins is ideal. You can wind some yarn around your hand and then secure it loosely around the middle until you are ready to use it, or you can wind yarn around some sewing bobbins and secure the bobbin until you need it. Too much or too little tension can lead to puckering or overly large stitches. Try to keep even tension on all of your stitches, especially when you are changing colors. . Intarsia knitting is decorative enough that you do not need to use fancy stitch types. In fact, most intarsia projects look best when you use the basic stockinette stitch. Stockinette stitch is when you knit a row, and then purl a row. Repeat this sequence for the entire project.
Summary: Use multiple balls of yarn. Watch your tension. Work in the stockinette stitch only

Crepe myrtle growing season is typically between the spring and fall. During the tree's growth phase, herbicides will translocate through the plant. Using herbicides during dormant season limits injury to site of application.  Herbicide application can come before or after cutting to the stump. But applying after is more effective, as it is more likely to reach the phloem—the light-brown "inner bark" that is located after the outer bark when moving inward towards the stump's center. During cool weather, dormant roots make it harder for the herbicide to make its way through the plant, reducing its effectiveness. Apply the herbicide to the bottom 12 to 18 inches (30 to 46 cm) of the crepe myrtle trunk. Sprayer labels should include supported branded mixes. When tank mixes are listed, it means that the sprayer manufacturer has researched how to effectively mix the spray. Purchase herbicide-mix components such as wettable powders and water dispersible granules, liquid flowables and suspensions, emulsifiable concentrate (ECs) formulations, and surfactants/solutions.  Wettable powders are solid pesticide formulations that are dispersed in water. Water-dispersible granules are applied after they are disintegrated and dispersed in water. They take longer to disperse than wettable powders. Emulsifiable concentrates are pesticide solutions that contain emulsifying agents in combination with a water-insoluble organic solvent. Surfactants are compounds that reduce tensions between two of the following: two liquids; a gas and a liquid; a liquid and a solid. Never mix chemicals without knowing how much or how to mix them. Wear eye protection, chemical-resistant gloves, long sleeves and pants, and closed-toe shoes to protect yourself from the chemicals. After filling it with water, add your branded herbicide mix or—if you're creating your own mix—water conditioners, buffering agents, or defoamers  Water conditioners improve the efficacy of mixes containing glyphosate and glufosinate in herbicide spray systems.  Buffering agents either facilitate herbicide activity, or facilitate or modify characteristics of a herbicide formulation.  Defoamers are added to herbicide mixes to prevent uncontrolled foaming in the spray tank. In order for herbicides to be effective on stumps, they must reach the phloem, also known as the inner bark. When your stumps are freshly cut, this is a great time to apply herbicide. Two applications (spaced apart by around two weeks) are recommended, as crepe myrtles are persistent.  Use water-based herbicides like glyphosate or triclopyr. Triclopyr-based herbicides suppress growth, causing disruption that eventually kills the plant. Spray new shoots with a broadleaf herbicide.  Once you notice your stump beginning to rot and weaken, move on to stump removal. If your crepe myrtle is actively growing, you need to apply an oil-based herbicide that can penetrate through the tree's protective layer covering the bark. Apply to the lower portion of the stem from the soil line up to 8 to 18 inches (20 to 46 cm). You can chop actively growing trees after weakening them with herbicide application. Use oil-based herbicide on plants with trunks up to  6 inches (15 cm) in diameter.

One-sentence summary -- Spray herbicides on crepe myrtle during growing season. Check your mix's sprayer compatibility if you're using a branded mix. Purchase mix components if you're creating your own tank mix. Fill your sprayer tank to 3/4 full with water. Apply water-based herbicides to the phloem of your freshly cut stumps. Apply oil-based herbicides to actively growing plants (optional).

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: It should harden because of the hair spray. The hardened gum should break off fairly easily. Wash as normal.

SUMMARY:
Spray a small amount of hair spray directly on to the gum. Immediately scrape or pick gum off. Continue until all gum is removed.
