user: Article: Making mixed spice is quite simple, and you'll only need a couple tools. Along with your spices, you'll also need something to grind whole spices, a small bowl, a spoon, an air-tight jar for storing the mixed spice, and a marker to label the jar.  You can start with either whole or ground spices to make mixed spice. Pre-ground spices are more convenient, but grinding your own whole spices will result in a fresher spice mix. To grind your own spices, you can use a spice grinder, pestle and mortar, or coffee grinder. For spices that are already ground, simply measure out the correct quantity and transfer it to your jar. For whole spices, grind each spice individually, then transfer it to a small bowl. Measure the ground spice to ensure you have the right quantity, and add it to the jar. When all the spices have been added, stir the mix with a spoon.  For a tablespoon of ground allspice, you'll need 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of berries.  For a tablespoon of cinnamon, you'll need about 4.5 inches (11 cm) of cinnamon sticks. For a tablespoon of nutmeg, you'll need about 1.5 nutmegs. For a teaspoon of cloves, you'll need about 12 whole cloves. For a teaspoon of coriander, start with a little less than a teaspoon of seeds. To keep your spice mix fresh for as long as possible, store it in a cool, dark place. Light and air will degrade the spices, so keep the mix in a pantry or cupboard. Always close the lid on the jar properly when you've finished with the mix. Ground spices that are stored properly will stay fresh for about a year.

Article: There are several benefits to applying online:  Since you will be typing, there are no worries about your handwriting. You can have other people review your application. You do not have to worry about staff getting the application to the hiring manager. Employers sometimes include specific instructions on applications to see if applicants can follow directions appropriately. For instance, you may be asked to list information in a certain order. When applying online, you can cut and paste text from your model application, but you will want to modify your generic responses to emphasize the skills and experiences that are applicable to the job you are applying for. For example, if you have worked as a cook and are now applying to be a sales associate, you might emphasize your work ethic and ability to multitask when describing your cooking job. If something is not applicable to you, make sure that you mark it as “Not Applicable” or “N/A.” Otherwise, your potential employer may think that you accidentally skipped the question. Print out a copy of your application before you submit it and have a friend you trust or someone at a local job center look over it before you submit it. You should also check your application yourself before submitting it. Make sure there are not spelling or grammatical errors and that all the information is correct. If you have cut and pasted text, make sure it shows up correctly when pasted, as specials formatting – i.e. italics, quotation marks, hyphens – are sometimes lost in the process.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Do the application online if possible. Read the application fully, including any special instructions. Use your model application as a template, but tailor your responses to the job. Complete every space on the application. Have someone proofread your application. Proofread one final time before submitting.
Article: A poorly fitted tray can be created by your dentist.  The custom tray can fit the curves and contours of your teeth to properly cover all applicable surfaces, and maximize the ability of the gel.  There are a few downsides if an ill-fitting tray:  Tooth sensitivity can occur, but typically only lasts until the gel is removed. Gum irritation is a common side-effect of whitening gel. Slight burns may even appear. Some using whitening gels experience lips and throat as well. Depending on the type of gel and the construction of tray, there could be variations in the amount of gel to use.  Have your dentist provide you with instructions on how to use the gel, when to use it, and for how long. These things depend on your clinical status and desired final result as well as your oral hygiene and eating habits, which are crucial in the whitening procedure. Your dentist may even demonstrate gel use. To decrease the chances of experiencing sensitivity complications, you’ll want to condition your teeth with something containing potassium nitrate and fluoride.  There are a few things you can do to make the transition easier.  Brush using a desensitizing toothpaste for a few weeks prior to starting bleaching treatments. Allow ample time for any inner-mouth cuts to heal.  Use plain glycerin or alcohol-free mouthwash if there are any existing mouth ulcers Give your tray a bleach-free test-run for fit and comfort. Check if the margins of the tray go over your gum line for more than 4 mm. If they do, you will need to have it reshaped by your dentist. Use either a dab per tooth or put a small line into the front part of the tray.  Do not fill the tray or spread the gel around.  An ideal amount is about halfway up the inner front of the tray.  Approximately 0.5 ml of gel is the amount per arch you’d like to apply.  Apply firm pressure and try moving the tray from left to right for a better distribution of the gel on your teeth. Do not push so hard that the gel oozes outward. Some recommend bleaching just the front 6-8 teeth since back teeth are rarely seen. Holding the tray firm with one hand, gently wipe away any excess that moves out towards the gums.  Some recommend using a dry toothbrush, so there is not water dripping into the gel tray and diluting the product.  Another method is to hold the tray firmly with one hand and use a tissue in the other hand to wipe the excess. While the gels are almost universally made with Carbamide Peroxide or Hydrogen Peroxide, and the general strength falls anywhere between 10% and 22%, there are nonetheless differing application times.  Most effectiveness is lost after the first two hours, so typical usage is for two to three hours per day.   Use the gel for 30–60 minutes the first time.  Duration can be increased if there is no sensitivity. Hydrogen Peroxide gels are normally used 30–60 minutes per session, once or twice per day. Carbamide Peroxide bleaching gels are generally broken down into two larger groups of strength:   10%-16% – used for longer periods, 2-4 hours split into two sessions per day  20%-22% – used for 30–60 minutes once or twice per day
