INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Some species of vines, such as English ivy, may cause irritation to your skin. Protect yourself by wearing long sleeves, pants, and shoes to cover your skin when you handle vines. You should also wear thick gardening gloves. Proper attire may also protect you from scratches and bug bites while you work. To avoid damage to the trees or other surfaces they are clinging to, remove vines by using a long, flat object to pry it away. Gently insert a screwdriver, crowbar, or similar tool between each vine and the surface it is clinging to. Slowly pull the vine up and away. If you are removing vines from a tree, pull them off slowly to avoid damaging the tree's bark. Cut off climbing vines at a height of 3–5 feet (0.91–1.52 m). Use pruning shears or a razor tooth pruning saw to sever the vines, depending on their thickness. This helps make removing the roots more manageable. Dispose of all vine cuttings right away as new plants can grow easily from cut stems. If the vine is still fairly small, you should be able to track down the roots. Pull the roots out by hand or use a shovel or trowel to dig the root system out completely. Remove the underground roots, bulbs, and tubers completely to effectively kill the vines.  For best results, do this when the soil is moist and soft in the spring. You will be able to move more of the dirt around this way, giving you better access to the root system. Note that you might need to dig out vine seedlings regularly for a few months or years to keep the problem under control. Groundcover vines can be controlled by cutting them down with a lawnmower. Use a gas-powered machine that will be powerful enough to cut through tough vines instead of just rolling over them. Doing this at least 3-4 times a year will slowly kill the spreading vine.  Electric or rotary mowers are more likely to run over vines than to cut them. If you want to reduce the hard labor of killing vines, this is the best option to try, though it will take regular, repeat mowing for it to be effective.

SUMMARY: Cover up to protect your skin from the vines. Pry away climbing vines from trees or buildings with a sturdy, flat tool. Cut away vines with pruning shears or a pruning saw. Pull or dig the base of the vines out of the ground by hand. Mow vines growing on the ground to kill them easily.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can buy them locally from a nursery or garden center or order them from a reputable mail order supply company.  If you pick them out yourself, look for bulbs that are firm to the touch and do not have defects such as mold, bruises or cuts. The bulbs should be light brown in color and covered in a papery, onion-like skin. In terms of quantity, each bulb will produce between one and four stems and blossoms, so plan accordingly. Choose bulbs based on the variety name for a more uniform look and growing pattern. Tulip bulbs labeled by color -- for example "yellow tulips" -- are often an assortment of species of tulips in that color. Plan on planting the tulip bulbs within a week of buying, as the bulbs are not designed to stay above ground for long. Tulip bulbs should be planted in late fall, before the first winter frost. The bulbs will then lie dormant throughout the winter months, before growing and blossoming come springtime. The precise planting time will depend on your local climate.  Chill the bulbs before planting them if you live in an area where winter temperatures rarely get below freezing. Put the bulbs in a closed brown paper bag and place the bag in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 weeks. You can also purchase tulip bulbs that are "pre-cooled." Be sure to purchase from a reputable supplier who has kept the bulbs chilled in storage. Plant the bulbs without chilling them first if your area has cold winters with freezing temperatures. Hold off planting until soil temperatures measured at a depth of 6 inches (15 cm), fall below 55 degrees Fahrenheit (12 C). Choose an area that receives the right amount of sun for the tulip variety you are growing. Bulbs need to be planted between 4 and 6 inches apart, so choose an appropriately sized plot.  Most tulips do best with full sun, or at least 6 hours of sun each day. Some varieties will also grow in partial or full shade. Many people choose to plant tulips along fences, walls, walkways and buildings, as they provide a pleasant burst of color and it is easy to control their growing pattern. If you wish to plant tulips in a pot, see this article for more detailed instructions.. Till the soil to a depth of 12 to 15 inches (30 to 38 cm) and amend it by adding sand or stones, if necessary.  Tulips need good drainage -- wet soil can cause fungus, disease and even rotting. It can also suffocate the bulbs due to its low oxygen content. Therefore, it is recommended that you plant tulips in raised beds in very wet areas. Make the soil as light and airy as possible by adding compost and coarse sand. Also be sure to remove any weeds.
Summary: Purchase tulip bulbs. Decide when to plant tulip bulbs. Pick a spot to grow tulips. Prepare the soil.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Release the syringe plunger so that it pulls air inside. You should draw up the same volume of air as the volume of the first kind of insulin dosage.  For example, if you need 7 units of NPH and 5 units of Novolog/Humalog, you will need to pull in 7 units of air for this first step. Remember that you should always draw up clear insulin (Novolog/Humalog) before cloudy insulin (NPH). Insert the syringe needle into the first bottle of insulin and push the plunger so that the air is released into the bottle. Then remove the syringe from the insulin bottle without drawing up any insulin. Make sure the bottle of insulin is kept on a flat surface during this whole process. Draw up the same volume of air into the syringe that equals the dosage of the second type of insulin. Insert the syringe into the second bottle and expel the air inside by slowly pressing the plunger. Do not draw any of the insulin up into the syringe at this time. Insert the syringe needle into the top of the clear insulin bottle. Turn the bottle upside down and pull up the plunger until you get the required dosage of clear insulin. Remove the syringe and replace the insulin bottle on the flat surface. Place the syringe needle in the top of the cloudy insulin bottle and turn the bottle upside down. Carefully pull the plunger back until you have pulled the necessary amount of insulin.  Remove the syringe needle and return the insulin bottle to the flat surface. Be careful not to put pressure on the syringe plunger until you are ready to draw up the second insulin dosage during this step.

SUMMARY:
Pull air into the syringe equal to the first dose of insulin. Place the syringe into the first insulin bottle and release the air. Repeat the first 2 steps with the second bottle of insulin. Draw up the clear insulin first. Draw up the cloudy insulin second.
