Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Try waxing, either at home or in a salon. Try threading to shape your eyebrows.

Answer: Waxing is a relatively quick way to shape your eyebrows without plucking. It will remove finer hairs, too, that you would be unlikely to see with a pair of tweezers and a mirror. If you have thick or dark brows, waxing may be the best bet.  At a salon, they will spread wax under and on top of your eyebrows. Then, they apply a small cloth or strip to the wax and pull the wax off (the hair comes with it). This is somewhat painful, but it's over fast.  One benefit of waxing is that the hair won't grow back as fast as it will with some other methods. You can also buy at-home waxing kits at local drugstores.It would be a good idea to try waxing at a salon first. If you mess up, eyebrows do grow back, but it's still not a fun thing to go through. At home kits usually include wax and application sticks. Another version of at-home waxing kits are waxing strips that are already shaped for eyebrows. Threading involves using cotton strings to remove hairs by twisting them off. The stylist can shape the eyebrows this way with great precision.  You should ask at local salons or malls whether they offer threading. It's best not to try this yourself unless you are specifically trained in it. Threading is an ancient art that dates back to ancient Eastern culture.   One benefit of threading is that wax can irritate sensitive skin, but threading is less likely to do so because you aren't applying a chemical to the skin. Another benefit is that threading creates very detailed definition of the brows.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Dress in flattering clothes that make you feel comfortable Check your breath. Groom yourself regularly. Try to learn as much as you can about your crush. Hang out in a group at first. Talk less to keep some mystery about yourself.

Answer: . You should always wear what you feel comfortable in, don't just wear something to impress you crush or fit in. Wear clean clothes that make you look your best if you know you're going to be around your crush.  Just dress naturally. Some people might get intimidated if you try getting really dressed up around your crush. You want to act naturally and be yourself, not like you're something you're not. Focus more on clothes that help you feel confident. If you want to impress your crush, you'll do it with your personality, not with your shirt. Make sure your clothes fit well, are clean, and make you feel good. If you're going to be around your crush, bad breath could be a turnoff. Make sure that you brush regularly, especially after meals, and keep some mints, gum, or other little fresheners around in case you need them.  Breath strips act quickly and are easy to carry around in your pocket, so you don't have to be chewing gum constantly while you're trying to flirt. Check in the mirror after meals to make sure you don't have anything stuck in your teeth. That could be embarrassing after the fact. Again, you don't need to be a movie star to attract your crush or to act naturally around them, but it's a whole lot easier to be relaxed and confident around someone if you're not worried about the smell you're putting off. Shower regularly and take care of basic body stuff so you can feel confident.  If you have acne problems, talk to your parents and your doctor about prescription solutions. There are lots of stronger medicated facial soaps out there to try. Don't suffer in silence. Put some thought into your hair and basic grooming. You don't need to be glammed up all the time, but don't look like you just rolled out of bed. Hanging around someone you're attracted to can be hard if you don't know much about them. You might want to impress them, or come off like an attractive and interesting person, but what do they think is attractive? What do they think is interesting? The more you know the answers to these questions, the more comfortable you can be.  Get to know them on social networking first. Reach out on Facebook or Twitter and become friends, or start following them on Instagram to get some sense of their sense of humor and style. Talk to mutual friends to find out things like whether or not your crush has a partner already, or whether or not your crush might be interested. It's a lot easier to chat up someone who you think might like you. One-on-one hangouts can be challenging. If you're trying to hang out with someone, do it in a group, so your crush can see how you act naturally around your friends, instead of trying to do it all at once.  Invite your crush to hang out with your friends, or just to sit with your friends at lunch. There doesn't need to be a reason. Alternatively, you might feel more comfortable hanging out one-on-one. If you do, try to find reasons to hang out with your crush solo, even in a non-date type of situation. Just try sitting together on the bus, or working on homework together, or sitting together at lunch. Lots of people make the mistake of thinking that you need to talk a lot and make a big show if you want to attract someone's attention. Not necessarily the case. Hang back a little and make your contributions magnetic and more meaningful when you do talk.  Talk more quietly, so everyone else needs to quiet down when you speak. Turn to your crush and lean in when you have something to say. Make it meaningful. It'll be mysterious and personal. Your crush might be attracted to more flamboyant, loud, or chatty people, and that's ok. That doesn't mean you need to change who you are to attract them, or get to know them better.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose your method. Assemble your materials. Can your food. Determine expiration dates.

Answer:
There are two canning techniques.  One uses a pressure canner, a device that subjects canned food to high pressures to create high temperatures.  The other method is to use a boiling-water canner, a device in which canned food is submerged in boiling water. When canning meat, seafood, poultry, and vegetables, pressure canning is the only canning method recognized as safe by the USDA. In addition to a canning device, canning at home requires a glass jar (a Mason jar, typically) and, of course, the food that you wish to can.  If you grow your own produce, you could save even more money on your canning materials.  You can often assemble canning materials – including a canning machine – for free on digital marketplaces like Craigslist. Try to get a set of canning jars for free or at a discount rate (but be sure to sterilize them by boiling them in water before use). If you have a community garden in your area, you might be able to lease a small plot for yourself to grow the veggies you want to can. There are two standard canning methods.  One is known as “hot packing.”  This involves blanching your food (usually vegetables), then loading it tightly into canning jars along with some of the water they were blanched in.  The other is known as “raw packing.”  This involves placing raw food into a canning jar and pouring very hot water over it.  If you have a boiling-water canner, you should raw-pack your canned food.  If you have a pressure canner, you should hot-pack your canned food. After hot packing, seal the jar with a metal lid, and follow the directions that came with your canning device to determine your next steps.  The amount of time your canned food will need to spend in the canning device depends on how much you have and what sort of food it is. The only additional cost when canning is your time.  Pressure canners work faster than boiling-water canners. Once you’ve canned your own foods, you’ll need to assign each can an expiration date so that it can be incorporated into your pantry system.  Generally, home-canned food is best eaten within one year.
