Problem: Write an article based on this summary: When you eat, eat. When eating, chew slowly and take smaller bites. Eat often. Turn your fork upside down.

Answer: Doing two things at once limits how aware you are of what you're doing and how much you can focus. Eating on the phone or in front of the TV can increase your intake by around 20%! It'll also help you truly taste your food. Savoring it can make you feel fuller, too! Sit down. Don't eat while standing up. There's a very, "onto the next" idea when we're standing. You don't relax, you don't commit, you end up pacing -- so do your appetite a favor and when you eat, chillax and sit down. Get comfy. Enjoy it. Your body takes around 20 to 30 minutes to tell you, "Hold up -- I'm full!" To keep from gorging before your body realizes you're gorging, chew slowly and taking smaller bites. If you're in a group, watch the slowest eater and try to match them. Try taking deliberate breaks, too, especially if your food doesn't have to maintain a temperature. You may realize you're not hungry anymore halfway through! You know those days when you skip lunch because you're running low on time and you're all, "Woo! I didn't eat lunch! I'm having a skinny day!" and then because you're so hungry, you end up eating an entire pizza to yourself? The worst. Instead of setting yourself up for the binge, eat often. 5 small  meals a day can keep you from ever feeling hungry and ever wanting to eat that entire pizza. Phew! Dodging bullets left and right. This doesn't mean eat more, for the record. Instead of sitting down to a huge dinner, have a snack at 3 and a small meal at 7. Because of your afternoon snack, you won't need to gorge yourself when dinner rolls around. Remember that work thing we talked about? You can make yourself work with your utensils. Try these three tricks to slow yourself and make eating less mindless:  Turn your fork upside down. If you can't scoop with it, you'll be forced to stab everything. One. Kernel. At. A. Time. Put it in the other hand. Using your non-dominant hand will slow you down significantly. It'll help you concentrate on your food, too! Use chopsticks. Unless, of course, you're a chopstick ninja when it comes to pasta, peas, and other elusive foods.

Answer: Mix until combined.  Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool on the tray for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire cooling tray. Store in an airtight container.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Purchase or make a citrus-based adhesive remover. Apply the adhesive remover to the scissor blades. Wipe off the cleaner with a cotton ball.

Answer: Natural citrus oils are powerful degreasers—they can safely and effectively remove adhesives from mirrors, picture frames, and scissor blades. You may purchase a citrus-based adhesive remover, or make your own at home.  Combine equal parts baking soda and coconut oil in a small, clean jar. Do not melt the coconut oil. Add a few drops of natural citrus oil to the mixture and stir. Cover your work surface with paper. Squirt your store bought spray onto the scissors or coat the blades with your homemade cleaner. Allow the product to sit on the blades for ten minutes.  Apply the product to each side of the scissor blades. The paper will protect your work surface from the cleaning products. With a clean cotton ball, carefully wipe down the blades. Run the cotton ball over both sides of the blades until all of the cleaner and adhesive is gone.  Wipe the blades from the base of the handles to the tips of the blades. If the sides of your blades are coated in adhesive, wrap the cotton ball around the blade and carefully wipe up and down.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Place the documents in a large trashcan. Pour in ½ Gallon (2L) of bleach. Add 5 Gallons (19L) of water. Push the documents down into the bleach water. Let the documents sit for 24 hours. Blend the documents with a paint turbine mixer. Lay out in sunlight to dry. Dispose of the pulp.

Answer:
You will want a container tall and wide enough to easily contain all of the documents and liquids you are pulping. Similarly, the material needs to be strong enough so that it won’t deteriorate or lose its form when in contact with bleach and water. Since you will be using roughly 22L of liquid to dissolve the documents, choose a trashcan that is greater than or equal to 30L. This will give you enough room to properly churn the documents. Plastic trashcans work well and can withstand the effects of diluted bleach.  Large plastic trashcans are available at home improvement and construction stores, as well as general commodity stores like Kmart, Target, and Walmart. They are also available online. Remove the documents from any envelopes or packages. Many stores sell brand name and generic bleach with a 8.25% concentration; this is perfect for your purpose.Bleach is going to help break down the paper. Commonly used in the recycling of used paper, it will also destroy the colorants of ink. This will guarantee a more complete destruction of any secure information in your documents.  Bleach is a hazardous chemical and can cause serious illness if not safely used. Avoid contact with your skin and eyes; do not ingest bleach. Only mix bleach with water. Combining with other chemicals – such as ammonia or toilet bowl cleaners – can produce toxic, potentially deadly fumes.  It is advised to wear long sleeve clothing, pants, close toed shoes and an eye cover when working with bleach.  In the case you accidentally swallow any of the solution, immediately drink a small glass of water or milk. Call poison control at 1-800-222-1222. Although bleach is the more chemically harmful (and stronger) part of this mixture, simple water is doing a lot of the work. Once the paper is completely saturated, you’ll be able to reduce it to an unrecognizable pulp. All the documents need to be submerged so they are completely saturated and can be broken down. If you have more documents that liquids, then you can do one of two things: work in smaller batches, or work with a larger container. If you choose the latter, make sure you increase your proportions of water and bleach to match.  Do not use your bare hands to push the documents down. This can cause great harm to your skin. Instead use the paint turbine mixer, a broom stick, or else wear long rubber gloves. For example, assume you have 30L plastic bin with 22L of liquid. If you have too many documents for this and purchase a 90L bin, you should be using 6L of bleach and 57L of water. Sitting in the bleach-water solution for 24 hours will effectively break down the sensitive documents and make them easy to pulp. If this is an emergency situation, and/or the documents need to be destroyed more quickly, consider the other methods listed here. After waiting 24 hours, the documents should be soft and discolored. Using an electric mixer, blend the paper until it becomes a soft, uniform mash.  If at any point you reach into the pulp to check the contents, always wear rubber or nitrile gloves to prevent skin exposure.  Broomsticks, canes, staffs and other long handled tools work as well. Anything that can reach deep into the container to churn and break apart the paper will succeed. Sift through the pulp looking for any large clumps. If there are pieces where you can still identify the information, break them apart by hand and then continue mixing. Putting the pulp directly into bags may lead to leakage and could possibly be rejected by the garbage men. Instead, lay out a large plastic tarp and pour the pulp evenly over the surface. Allow the pulp to dry completely before disposing of it. Some people decide to use this dried pulp as mulch for their yards. However, if you go this route, it’s advised to not use bleach during the pulping process. Place the dried remains in garbage bags and leave them out with the regular trash. Anyone who goes digging through your garbage – such as identity thieves – will be hard pressed to learn anything from your pulped documents. Pulp can also be composted.
