Article: In order to keep from painting other parts of the car, you can either remove and paint the bumper separately or leave the bumper attached and carefully mask off the car body. Removing the bumper works best when you're repairing any scratches or cracks before repainting. Scrub the surface well with a tack cloth along with soapy water. Using a degreaser like kitchen soap will help remove dirt and oil, leaving your bumper cover clean and ready for paint. Run your hand over the bumper to find any rough spots. Wet sand down these areas by hand with a spray bottle and some 600-grit sandpaper. Keep a constant layer of water between the sandpaper and bumper by spraying the area you're working on. Make sure to alternate directions as you sand, moving back and forth as well as up and down, in order to achieve a smooth, flawless finish. Remove any dirt and dust from sanding with the soft cloth. The surface should be clean and dry in order for the paint to adhere properly.

Article: There are a few situations in Blackjack when it always makes sense to split, no matter what card the dealer is showing. For example, you should always split when you get a pair of aces. Splitting gives you a much better chance to get a strong hand. See below:  If you play your two aces as one hand, you'll start with a value of 12 (one is played as an 11 and the other as a one). Only a nine will give you 21. A 10 or face card will force you to play the second ace with a value of one, bringing you back to 12. On the other hand, if you split, you have four ways to get a 21 in either hand (being dealt a 10, J, Q, or K). Besides aces, the other pair that almost every Blackjack expert will tell you to split on is eights. It's difficult to get a good hand when you play your eights as one hand. Your chances aren't fantastic when you play them separately, but you do stand a better chance mathematically. See below:  Playing your two eights as one hand starts you at 16 (a very weak hand). Hitting at this point is a risky proposition. Anything above a 5 will cause you to bust, so you have about a 60% chance of losing the hand from the get-go. On the other hand, if you split, it's impossible to bust out on your first hit, so you at least have a chance of getting a more favorable hand. When you split, the dealer gives you two cards — one for each of the new hands. If this gives you a second pair of aces or eights, treat it as its own hand and split again.  Note that this requires you to triple your original bet (splitting the first time requires you to double it). House rules may vary here. Most Blackjack games will allow you to split a maximum of three times (to play a total of four hands).
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Always split aces. Always split eights. Always re-split aces or eights if you are dealt a second pair.
Article: Cut lines through the ivy along the ground in order to divide it into large sections. This will make it much easier to remove the ivy from the ground. Pull the sections apart from one another as you cut. Work carefully around plants and saplings you want to keep. If you're working on a hill, cut vertical lines from the top of the hill to the bottom to create sections that you can roll downhill. Lift the edge of one section of ivy and roll it forward on top of itself. Keep rolling the ivy forward until the entire section has been rolled up into a big log of ivy. Move the log to a separate area and continue rolling up sections until you've cleared the area. Mulching the ivy rolls is the best way to dispose of them and ensure they won't take root in the area again. English ivy is difficult to kill with herbicides alone because the plant's leaves contain a waxy barrier that is difficult for products to penetrate. Therefore, the most effective method is to combine manual removal with the use of a herbicide. Glyphosate is the chemical that works most effectively to kill English ivy.  Spray the area of ivy you wish to kill, but be careful the glyphosate doesn't reach other plants you want to keep. Herbicides are slow-acting, and must be reapplied every six weeks or so. If you have a patch of ivy you want to preserve, but you'd like to prevent it from spreading, you can use mulch to keep it contained. Simply cover the border of the ivy you want to keep with several inches (about 7 to 8 inches) of shredded or wood chip mulch. You will need to give this method some time; leave the mulch on the ivy for at least 2 seasons. You may need to add new mulch one or more times during a growing season. Another option is to trim the ivy back to contain it. Use a weed eater or edging tool to cut the vines along the border.
