Make sure that the borders of the acrylic you want to join are flat and free of bumps or cuts. Acrylic cement will not adhere or sink into grooves and crevices like regular glue does on wood or paper. Instead, it softens the acrylic and chemically bonds the pieces together, so it's important they are as flat as possible.  If you notice any rough areas, use a router (a power tool with a shaped cutter) or light sandpaper to ensure that the edges are perfectly smooth and square. However, do not sand the edges so that they become round. Make sure that any surfaces being bonded together are lightly sanded and not shiny, as a very smooth surface is tough to bond together. Once you have sanded and smoothed the sides of your acrylic, wipe over it with a clean cloth and alcohol. Using Isopropyl alcohol will help guarantee that all dirt, dust, and other fragments have been removed. It will also remove any residual oils left by your hands, which can interfere with gluing. Be sure that your surfaces are totally dust-free – this is really important to the process. The most common glue for acrylics is a solvent-based glue like Weld-On 4, which can be found on Amazon for under $15. This glue should also come with its own applicator bottle and needle. To use, simply fill the applicator bottle, via a funnel, until the bottle is about 75% full. Once filled, squeeze the bottle gently to allow some of the air inside to escape.

Q: This medication is an antidepressant that can also control symptoms that you experience when you have PTSD. Paxil is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), meaning it works by blocking the re-uptake of serotonin, effectively increasing levels of serotonin in certain parts of the brain. Studies have shown that Paxil (which is more formally referred to as paroxetine) can help to improve symptoms of PTSD. Paxil can help treat symptoms of depression and anxiety, as well as difficulties with sleep and concentration. Zoloft is also an SSRI, which means that it is an antidepressant that may work for people suffering from symptoms of PTSD. Zoloft and Paxil are the only two drugs FDA-approved to treat PTSD. Zoloft (which is also referred to as sertraline) can help to improve symptoms of PTSD including: Depression, anxiety, and sleep problems. While these medications can be very effective in improving your symptoms of PTSD, they can also create other side effects that you should be aware of. The side effects include:  Nausea. This symptom often goes away in two to five days. Headaches. Headaches are a common complaint of SSRI users. Generally, you will stop feeling headaches in a few days. Anxiety. In other words, feeling jittery or agitated. Drowsiness. Drowsiness is often a sign that the dose that was originally prescribed by the doctor is too much. Sometimes a simple change in the time of administering the drug can be enough to address this issue. Insomnia. Insomnia can also be a problem with SSRI. Reducing the dose can often fix this problem. Reduced sexual drive. SSRI's are known to cause sexual problems like reduced pleasure in lovemaking and reduced sex drive.

Article: . Choose a variety that is uniform in size and shape, and feels heavy in your hands. Stuart or Moneymaker pecans are two common and popular varieties. Sort through the pecans and dispose of any that have cracks or holes, that feel considerably lighter than the others, or that rattle when you shake them. These nuts have likely gone bad. Some pecan-lovers claim that boiling the pecans before cracking helps to loosen the shells.  Bring a large pot of water to the boil on the stove top. Gently add the pecans to the water and leave to boil for 10 to 15 minutes. Drain the pecans and leave to cool before cracking.  Alternatively, you can place one cup of water and two cups of pecans in a microwaveable bowl and heat on high for 5 to 6 minutes. Shelling pecans can be a messy job, as bits of shell are likely to fly everywhere during cracking. As a result, it may be best to set up your work station outside, to minimize clean-up.

Article: Frizz is often caused by dryness, so it’s important to restore moisture to your hair in the shower. Always use a sulfate-free shampoo. Sulfates are detergents that are great at cleaning hair, but can also strip your hair of the natural moisture it needs to remain frizz-free. If your hair is dry, sulfate in your shampoo may be the culprit.  Don’t wash your hair every day. Wash your hair every other day, or only a couple times a week if you can get away with it. Even sulfate-free shampoos can be drying, so give your hair a rest and let it soak in your natural oils. Anything that removes dirt and grime from your hair is probably also removing its moisture, so use sparingly!  Using dry shampoo between washes is a great way to keep your hair looking fresh without the damage of daily shampooing. Unlike shampoo, conditioner is moisturizing and will help tame your locks. Look for conditioners that are specifically marketed as moisturizing, especially those that contain glycerin. On days when you are skipping the shampoo, you can still use conditioner without worrying about damage. It will gently clean your hair, but also hydrate it. If you have the time, let the conditioner sit on your hair for a couple minutes so it fully soaks into the shaft.  Choose a conditioner tailored for your hair type. If your hair tends to be oily and limp, avoid conditioners that boast qualities like "moisturizing" or "hydrating," because these will only exacerbate the oiliness and limpness. Shampoos with added protein tend to work well for oily hair, as well as conditioners meant for "volumizing," balancing," and "strengthening." If your hair is extremely oily, you may want to skip conditioner all together, or apply it before shampooing.  If your hair is dry, damaged, and prone to break, look for moisturizing conditioners. You may want to also try conditioners that specifically repair hair after damage. Avoid conditioners that are described as "strengthening" or "volumizing."  If you are worried about your hair looking limp and flat, avoid your roots and only apply it to the ends of your hair. By soaking your hair in a deep conditioner or oil overnight, you give it extra time to take in all the moisture. This may be especially helpful for African American and Latina hair that may be more coarse and dry, but it can benefit anyone who needs the extra moisture. Comb the product through dry or wet hair and then put on a shower cap before bed. There are a lot of ways to give your hair a boost of moisture, such as doing a weekly hair mask. You can buy moisturizing hair masks from the drugstore or spend a little more on a product from a salon. Again, look for one that contains glycerin, which will hydrate the hair shaft from the inside. You can also skip the store and make your own hair mask at home. Coconut oil is a perfect one-ingredient moisturizer. Eggs, milk, and honey also have nourishing, restorative properties.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Wash with a moisturizing shampoo. Condition regularly. Try a mask or overnight conditioner for very dry hair. Give your hair some extra TLC.
