Article: Heat helps tightened muscles relax,  and moist heat is better than dry heat, as it can penetrate into the neck more effectively. Apply heat to the back or neck area for at least 20 minutes at a time, 3 times daily. Place a hand towel in a bowl full of hot water, or pour the hot water all over the towel. Alternatively, put the towel in the dryer for 5-7 minutes. Dry out the towel just enough so that it is not dripping, but still has its warmth. Drape the towel over your neck when your neck is stiff or sore. After that is done  wait about 20 minutes a do it again. Keep doing this about 3 times. Cold dulls local pain and limits the buildup of lactic acid, which can cause soreness. Use an ice pack and place it on the part of your neck that feels stiff (usually the back of your neck at your hairline). Hold the pack there for 10-15 minutes every 2 hours.   You can also try a more comfortable position to ice your neck. Sit in a comfortable chair and rest your head back. Place the pack between your shoulders and the bottom of your head. Lean back against it so your neck gets the full benefit of the cool temperature. Some experts feel that ice will contribute to increased stiffness in the neck because the cold will contract your muscles. Try what feels good to your neck. Use a cold treatment for acute pain in the first 48-72 hours, and then switch to heat.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Use moist heat on your neck. Place a hot towel over your neck. Try an ice pack to soothe your neck.

Problem: Article: Your favorite pillow, stuffed animal, or even pictures of family can turn anyplace into your home away from home. The familiar objects trigger a sense of peace and exert a calming influence on your mind. If you take a shower before bed at home, take a shower before bed wherever you are. Bring the book you’re reading if you normally read before turning out the light. Anything to give bedtime the same feeling and to let your body know it’s time for bed is a good bet to help. You never know if it’s going to be noisy or bright where you’re staying so bringing these along will make sure you’re prepared for everything. A sleep mask will also give you the added benefit of being able to imagine you’re at home without you seeing the evidence to the contrary right before your eyes.
Summary: Bring some bedtime objects with you. Follow the same routine. Bring earplugs and a sleep mask.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Lie down on a fitness mat. Lie with your back flat on the ground, legs together and knees bent. Keep in mind that this movement is not recommended for anyone who has ever had a back problem. This movement can be made easier by placing your hands and arms lower on your body (crossing arms in front of your chest) or harder, by placing your hands and arms past your head (arms extended above your head). With your knees remaining bent, turn at your waist and bring both of your legs to one side of your body, down to the floor. Your legs should be lying on top of each other. As you bring your legs down to the floor, keep your shoulder blades and the upper part of your back flat on the floor. Place your hands behind or at the sides of your head. Flex your abdominal muscles, and lift your shoulders off the floor. Be sure to keep your shoulders straight and level just as you would for a normal crunch. Hold the position for a moment, then release your constricted abdominal muscles to slowly bring your shoulders back down to the mat. Do not pull at your head and neck to complete the crunch. Your hands are merely resting near your head as you contract your abdominal muscles to lift yourself up and crunch. Once you have completed one set of crunches on one side of your body (about 10–15 reps), turn your legs over to do the crunches on other side of your body. It’s recommended to do this exercise 1–3 sets on each side, 2–3 times a week.

SUMMARY: Lie down on the floor. Turn your legs to one side. Crunch to your side. Complete your crunches on the other side of your body.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: This blend contains castile soap, so the shaving cream has a nice foamy lather when you apply it to wet skin. If you like a sudsier cream to use on your face, legs or underarms, this homemade recipe is for you. Here's what you'll need:  1/4 cup coconut oil 2 tablespoons shea or cocoa butter 1/4 cup aloe vera gel 2 teaspoons baking soda 1/4 cup liquid castile soap 10 drops essential oil of your choice Empty liquid soap dispenser (preferably a foaming dispenser) Both shea butter and coconut oil are solid at room temperature, so it's necessary to melt them in order to blend them properly. Measure out 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) shea butter (or cocoa butter) and 1/4 cup coconut oil. Place the ingredients in a small saucepan. Melt them over low heat, stirring occasionally until they liquify, then remove the pan from heat. Pour all the ingredients together into a blender. Blend on high for several minutes to fully mix the ingredients together; this will prevent the oil and soap from separating later. The resulting liquid should have the texture of thick liquid soap. Some castile soap comes with a scent, so you can skip this step if your shaving cream already has an aroma. If you want to add your own essential oils, stir in 10 drops of your favorite oil or blend.  You can add up to 20 drops of essential oil if you like a stronger scent. Try one of these mixtures: rose and vetiver; sandalwood and orange; fir and mint. Your shaving cream is now ready to use; just pump some out as you need it. It will foam as you apply it to your face. If the mixture separates in the container, shake well to recombine the oils and soap.
Summary: Gather your ingredients. Melt the shea butter and coconut oil. Blend with the aloe vera, baking soda and liquid castile soap. Add ten drops of essential oil. Pour the mixture into the liquid soap dispenser.

Each game of curling is played with 2 teams consisting of 4 players apiece. Team members take turns throwing stones. The turn order is determined before the game and is followed throughout it. The exception to this is in Mixed Doubles curling. Teams are composed of 1 male and 1 female player. Mixed Doubles games are much faster than regular games. The playing surface for curling is called a sheet. You stand at 1 end of the ice and aim for the “house,” which is the target at the other end. The “button” is the bullseye in the center of this target.  Many beginners are thrown off by the size and color of the blue, white, and red rings. Ignore the rings. They’re a visual indicator of where to aim, but otherwise don’t pay them much attention. The most important part is how close your stones are to the button.. Players will start from a position 57 ft (17 m) away from the house. To stay in play, the stones must stop between the hog line, which is 21 ft (6.4 m) from the button, and the back line behind the house. Each team plays by using granite stones, also called rocks. Teams alternate turns, throwing 1 stone at a time. Each team member gets to throw 2 stones total, which their teammates guide towards the house.  Each stone weighs about 42 lb (19 kg), so guiding it along the ice takes some practice. Team members alternate turns. You have to wait to throw your second stone In Mixed Doubles, each team gets only 5 stones. Think of an end as an inning in baseball. Once all the stones are thrown in an end, an official counts the score and writes it on a scorecard. Each team curls a total of 80 stones in a match.  Each end begins with the team who won the previous end. If Team B scores more points in the first end, they start the second end. This is fairer than it seems because the team that goes second in curling has an advantage. The amount of ends can change depending on the game format. Full-length games may be limited to 8 ends. Professional Mixed Doubles games are always 8 ends long, but recreational games may be even shorter.
