If this is the tub that contains the bath mat, lift up the bath mat so it isn’t stuck to the bottom of the tub. An easy and effective way to clean your rubber bath mat is to soak it in a diluted bleach solution in your bathtub.  If you have a deep or utility sink, that may be preferable.  Be prepared to measure the amount of bleach to be used in making your solution and have more than enough room for a proper soaking. Bleach may splash when being poured and can irritate your eyes or skin.  Wear protective cleaning gloves before pouring bleach.  You may also wish to use goggles to cover your eyes. Before preparing a diluted bleach solution, open a window or leave the bathroom door open.  Fumes from using bleach or making a bleach solution can be noxious and cause dizziness. Add one gallon of water to the bathtub. Do not pour bleach directly into the bathtub.  Do not make a diluted bleach solution with hot water.  Hot water may intensify fumes as bleach is added. Have a measuring cup or tablespoon handy.  Do not pour bleach indiscriminately into the cold water.  Unequal parts of bleach to water may create a more potent and dangerous solution and cause dizziness or breathing problems.  Some recommended measurements are as follows:  Add 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of chlorine bleach to 1 gallon (3.8 L) of water for normal cleaning.  Add 1 cup (240 mL) of chlorine bleach to 5 gallons (19 L) of water for heavier cleaning.  As an alternative to bleach, make a solution of 1 cup (240 mL) of white vinegar and 1 cup (240 mL) of water and use it to scrub the mat. Or, fill the tub or basin with equal parts vinegar and water and allow the mat to soak. You may decide a more thorough cleaning is in order, or you might just want to keep your bath mats fresh.  To eliminate mold or mildew, leave the rubber bath mat in the diluted bleach solution for 3-4 hours.  To freshen up the bath mat with a quick clean, scrub the rubber bath mat with a cleaning brush or scouring pad to remove dirt and debris after soaking for a few minutes. Remove the bath mat from the bathtub and set to dry on the back of a chair or outdoors in the sun.  Drain and rinse the bathtub to remove dirt and scum collected from the cleaning. Do not put the bath mat in the dryer as the heat will warp it!

Q: Stir in the salt and vanilla extract. Alternate method: Pass the mixture through a sieve and into a measuring cup, then stir in the salt and vanilla extract.

Article: The more properties you have, and the more rent you collect, the more money you get from your opponents. Buying as many properties as you can early in the game gives you the best chance of winning the game.  Don't wait until you've got more money, or until you've landed on Boardwalk or other prestigious properties to start spending money. Start buying whatever open property you land on as soon as possible. The more you own, the better your standing in the game. There's little incentive in Monopoly to play conservatively and wait.  You'll start making money after you have property, not before. Don't worry about spending all of your money in the early turns. That just means you're playing smart. Don't leave a bunch of open spaces in a color group for others to buy. Buy them yourself if you can. In general, you should always buy unowned properties if no other player owns property in that color group, especially if it gives you a second or third property in a given group, building you closer to a monopoly. The orange properties, in particular, are the most landed-upon, making them the most desirable monopoly. You have a monopoly when you own all of the properties of one color. The holder of a monopoly is entitled to double the rental rate normally paid. The monopoly holder is also entitled to add houses/hotels (which substantially increases rental rates). Holding a monopoly also greatly enhances your bargaining power during property trades made at later times in the game. It can also be advantageous to purchase properties to block other players from creating monopolies, opening you up for trade possibilities later in the game. If you see an opponent working towards a particular monopoly, take any opportunity that you get to buy the properties they want.  Don't worry about blocking a monopoly when two players each own a property of a group. They're already blocking each other, meaning you'd be better off placing your attention elsewhere. Use the advantage that you gain from buying a property that another player wants to get something that you want. For example, if the other player has a property (or two) that you want, propose a trade. In general, the railroad spaces are more valuable than the utility spaces, which offer little in the way of long-term investment. Railroads, though, are only valuable if you own all of them. Some players make acquiring all the Railroads a priority, while some prefer ignoring it as a distraction. Whatever you choose to do, stick with your policy.  There's only a 1 in 38 chance of profiting from a Utilities purchase, meaning you would be better off investing in hotels and other building projects because they will make you more money.  Sometimes it might be a good idea to purchase a Railroad to keep another player from having a railroad monopoly. As soon as you get a monopoly, start building, and don't stop building until you've got three houses on each property. You will make far more money after you get up to three houses per property. This extra income will increase your chances of winning the game. Build houses when you have enough cash for a "high probability" expense such as rents on railroads and utilities, luxury tax and certain Community Chest cards. If possible, wait until you pass the part of the board where there is the highest likelihood of paying the highest penalties, the last few squares of the game before Go. When you have only three or four low-rent color groups, you should put three or four houses on each property to restrict the availability of houses to owners of high rent color groups. Don't move up to a hotel if returning houses to the bank would enable your opponent to develop an expensive color group. It's devious, and effective.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Buy as many properties as you can as soon as possible. Create monopolies. Buy properties that other players want. Develop a strategy for railroads and utilities. Get three houses as quickly as possible. Try to cause a housing shortage.

Article: They shouldn't be able to see the paper. Explain to them that you're going to be doing a blind contouring exercise, which will help them learn to keep their eyes on the subject in front of them, instead of on their paper. Tell them that contour drawing and sketching are different. Sketching is about making lots of short, light strokes, whereas contouring is drawing the outline of an object with long strokes. Tell them to work slowly, and make sure no one is peeking at their paper as they're drawing. Their drawings will probably look very different than the actual object, and that's OK. The goal is to get them comfortable with observation. Tell your students to make note of any lines or details that are way off so they can correct similar mistakes in the future. Use a piece of furniture or have one of the students model for the class. Remind students to draw slowly and to really focus on the object in front of them. Set a goal for your students that with each round of the exercise, their contour drawings will look slightly more like the object.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Have your students place their sketchbook on their lap under a table or desk. Ask your students to draw the contours of a simple object. Have your students observe their contour drawings. Repeat the exercise with more complex objects.
