Article: One way to remember the information you learn is to communicate it to others. Gather a few classmates and form a study group. You can quiz each other before exams and practice applying theories to case studies. Try to form a group of students with similar academic abilities. This will optimize your study time and ability to assist one another. Aim for no more than six people in your group. Larger groups tend to lose focus more easily. The great thing about studying economics is that it is relevant to your everyday life. For example, you can apply the concept of scarcity to your budget. Resources are not unlimited and you need to plan for their use. Look for moments while shopping or planning your money when you can apply economic theories. You could use the theory of marginal utility, or buying goods that give you the highest pleasure for the cost. For example, you could spend $10 on an economics handbook or $10 on a movie ticket. While you might enjoy the movie for two hours, the handbook could help you receive an A in economics, which could lead to graduate school, and a promising career. The lasting returns of the handbook are higher. Diminishing returns works when considering whether to get a second latte, for example. The first latte might have tasted wonderful. It cost $3.50 and was worth every cent to you. You would like a little more but probably would only drink of the second drink, which also will cost $3.50. The utility (satisfaction) of the second latte is considerably lower so it is not a wise decision to purchase one. When studying economics, one way to solidify your knowledge of the basics is to review previous material by tutoring younger students. If you are a junior, for example, consider tutoring a first year college student. This will also be economically beneficial in the sense that you will earn money.

Article: A healthy diet can make your hair less prone to damage. If your hair seems to dry out and become damaged easily, try altering your diet. Opt for a diet rich in fruits and vegetables as well as healthy protein sources like nuts. Omega-3 fatty acids are good for hair, so go for foods like walnuts and salmon. Vitamin B12, found in eggs and avocado, is also good for hair health. If your hair gets damaged often, dietary supplements such as niacin and biotin can help. However, you should never take supplements without consulting your doctor. You want to make sure they're safe for you given your current health and will not interfere with any existing medication. Heat styling tools can damage hair from overuse, so do not flat iron or curl your hair too often. Save the flat iron and curling iron for special occasions, such as a night out, rather than using them as a part of your daily hair care routine. Allow your hair to at least partially air dry. Overuse of blow dryers can cause hair to dry out and become damaged. Give your hair a light blow drying to add a little volume. Then, let your hair air dry the rest of the way. Split ends cannot be repaired. If you notice your hair has split ends, take care of them right away. Make an appointment with a hair stylist to cut off your split ends. This will stop them from causing further damage to your hair. Make it a goal to get your hair trimmed every 6-8 weeks so it stays healthy.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Eat healthy. Talk to your doctor about supplements. Limit your use of flat irons and curling irons. Do not blow dry your hair completely. Cut off split ends.
Article: Put 1 tablespoon (15ml) white vinegar in a spray bottle with 1 tablespoon (15ml) of dish soap and 34 cup (180ml) of water. Spray the clover with the mixture as a spot treatment to kill it. Avoid spraying the mixture on any surrounding plants or grass, as it can damage them. Corn gluten is a natural herbicide that can be used to kill clover. Look for powdered corn gluten that you can sprinkle onto the clover. Use 20 pounds (9.1kg) of corn gluten per 1,000 square feet (93m2) of lawn. Water the corn gluten once you've applied it and then let the area dry for 2-3 days so the gluten can kill the clover. You can apply the corn gluten again after 4-6 weeks if the clover does not die. Put a garbage bag or a plastic tarp over the clover and secure the ends with rocks. Leave it on for a few weeks so the clover is deprived of sunlight and oxygen. Make sure the clover stays covered by the tarp at all times so it dies. This option is good if you have large patches of clover in your lawn that can be covered easily by a large plastic sheet or tarp.

Spray the clover with a vinegar and soap mixture. Use corn gluten on the clover. Place a plastic sheet over the clover to kill it.
