INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You want to choose polishes that are right for your skin tone and that will coordinate with your sandals, swimsuits, and summer attire. Polishes can look slightly different after they dry. Before polishing nails, apply a small amount of polish to your skin. Let it dry there and see how it looks. You can do this with as many polishes as you like to see which one is right for your nails. If you know that you will be changing the color of your nails frequently, invest in a nail polish, as opposed to enamel, nail enamel is usually more expensive and more difficult to remove. If polishing right after moisturizing, be sure to clear your nail of moisturizer, as this can prevent the polish from drying properly. One way of preparing the nail surface is to take a cotton swab and apply a small amount of nail polish remover to the nail surface. Rub in lightly, then wash and dry the tips of your toes. The polish remover breaks down the oiliness of the moisturizer. Buff the nail surface. Using a buffing block, start with the side for removing ridges (should be the second roughest in texture) and buff the surface of the nail, being sure to compensate for nail curvature. Repeat with the less rough sides of the block, in order from roughest to least rough. Once you've reached the polishing side, the surface of the nail should be shiny. Use a toe spacer. Toe spacers are made of rubbery foam and are shaped with grooves for each toe on your foot. By separating the toes when polishing, it is easier to add polish neatly and toes do not rub against each other, marring the polish. Be sure to leave the spacers in place until the polish is dry. Apply a base coat before polishing. Base coat is usually clear or milky. It strengthens nails and helps the polish adhere to the nail surface. Be sure to let the base coat dry completely before applying polish. Using even, perpendicular strokes, apply a thin coat of nail polish to your nails. Experts say three strokes for each coat is enough-- left side, middle, and right side. Avoid drips. Be sure to wipe the brush and stem on the inside of the mouth of the nail polish bottle to remove excess polish. Nail polish or enamel should set up and be dry within 10 minutes. You can expedite this by putting your feet in front of a fan. Especially with dark, saturated colors, multiple coats help to avoid streaks and improve color uniformity. Apply the same way as the first layer, being sure to avoid drips and uneven application. The second coat may require longer drying time than the first. Top coat is applied to help finish the drying process, as well as offering a more finished surface to the nail. Many top coats also prevent chipping and help polish last longer. Be sure to leave the toe spacers in place and not to walk around on carpet or rugs until the nails have dried completely.

SUMMARY: Choose a polish. Prepare your feet for nail polish. Apply nail polish. Let dry. Apply a second coat. Finish with a top coat.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your signature block should include a line for each party to sign, plenty of room for signatures, the parties' printed names, and a place for a notary public to notarize the signatures. Your signature block should also include a place to enter the date on which the contract was signed by each party. This way it will be clear that the contract was signed after it was finalized, and has not been changed since it was signed. Ideally, you should have a real estate attorney look over your contract before you have the parties sign it. This can ensure that your contract is legal and that you have not overlooked any key information. Though this may present an up-front expense, it would be far cheaper than an in-court dispute due to a faulty contract. You and the buyer will both need to sign the contract in the presence of a notary public to make it a legally binding agreement. Both you and the buyer should have a physical copy of the agreement. It's also a good idea to create an electronic copy as well, in case something should happen to the physical copy. Store your physical copy in a secure location, such as a safety deposit box or in a home safe.

SUMMARY: Create a signature block. Have an attorney check the contract. Get the contract signed and notarized. Make a copy.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: One of these styles will suit you best if you plan to use your boat for freshwater fishing in lakes and rivers. You'll be able to navigate the boat into narrow channels and streams, although the boat may not be suitable for holding more than 1 or 2 people. Anglers also typically prefer center-console or dual-console boats. If you plan to use a boat for freshwater leisure but don't plan to fish from it, opt for a reliable pontoon boat. Large pontoons can hold as many as 10 or 12 people, so they're also a popular option for family parties or spending a day on the lake with your friends. New pontoon boats range from $20$30,000 USD, but used models will cost less. If you want a fast boat that you can cruise in, check out cabin cruiser, cuddy cabin, and dinghy or dory designs. These are day-use boats that will allow you to cruise over the open ocean for hours at a time. Smaller cruisers can also be taken in rivers or large lakes. If you want a high-powered boat for fast cruising in the ocean, spring for a speedboat or sport boat. If you'll be using your boat primarily for watersports on lakes, and want the option to tow an individual behind you, a mid-size towboat will be your best option. These boats will create a sizeable wake behind you, and feature a deck large enough to house several people. Bowriders and towboats would not be suitable for staying overnight on. New models will cost around $54,000, but a used model will cost substantially less.

SUMMARY:
Opt for a flat boat, or a bay or bass style if you're an angler. Purchase a pontoon for slow-paced relaxation. Buy a cabin cruiser, cuddy cabin, or dinghy for ocean cruising. Purchase a bowrider or towboat for towing wakeboarders or water-skiers.
