Article: It is important that you can see how the trick appears to your audience, so you can get a feel the angle at which you need to hold your thumbs so they are partially hidden. This means your left thumb is resting against the side of your hand that is pointed to the sky, and the back of your hand is facing your audience. Imagine where your audience will be standing (preferably directly in front of you), and be careful not to angle your hand so they can see behind your palm. Your thumb should be bent at a 90 angle, with only the bottom half (the half below your knuckle) visible to someone standing directly in front of you. It should appear as though you have one very long thumb--the left thumb providing the part below the knuckle, and your right hand making up the part above the knuckle, or the part with the nail. This covers the one area where it is obvious that people are seeing two bent thumbs held together, instead just your left thumb lying flat against the side of your hand. Your index and middle fingers will naturally move with your thumb. It will look like the tip of your left thumb has detached and you are pulling it apart. You may find you have to adjust the angle of at which you bend your thumbs for it to look convincing. If you are left handed, the trick is exactly the same, just reverse it so your right thumb is the bottom of the thumb and your left thumb makes the tip.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Stand in front of a mirror to practice. Hold your left hand out with the palm facing you. Bend your left thumb back toward your body. Bend your right thumb at a 90 angle and lay it on the side of your left hand so that the knuckles of your thumbs are touching. Curl the index and middle fingers of your right hand over your thumb knuckles where they touch. Slide your right thumb to the right, along the length of your left hand. Practice this movement until it feels comfortable and fluid.

Problem: Article: These dresses typically have a very flattering dividing line or design at the narrowest part of your waist. Both styles nip in at the waist, making it look even thinner while accentuating your upper and lower curves. Make sure you choose one that comes in at the waist, hugs the hips, and falls over your thighs loosely.
Summary: Look for snug fits that emphasize your waist and keep your top and bottom curves balanced. Consider a bodice dress that naturally keeps the top and bottom sections looking separate. Try on a wrap dress or empire waist dress. Look for form-fitting dresses with a diagonal or bias cut to show off your legs and add a bit of visual interest to your style.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can do this using an electric stand mixer, a handheld mixer, or even a food processor. You can also do it by hand, but it will take longer. Slowly beat in the confectioner's sugar, a little bit at a time. Beat the mixture well after each addition of sugar. Keep the crust inside the tin. Use a rubber spatula to spread the cream over the top of the crust. Cut the stems off of the strawberries first, then cut them into inch (0.64 centimeters) thick slices, from top to bottom. Arrange the strawberries on top of the cream in a tight spiral. Start the outside of the tart first, then work your way inward in a tight spiral. Overlap each new row by a little, like scales. Put the jelly into a small saucepan. Cook it over medium-low heat until it turns liquid, about 3 minutes. You can also drizzle the glaze over the tart instead. It might also be a good idea to let the glaze set at room temperature first (about20 minutes) before refrigerating it. Gently loosen the sides of the tart tin first. Once the sides come off, carefully transfer the tart to a plate using a spatula. If your tart tin does not have a removable bottom, serve it straight from the tin. If you try to remove it, the crust may break. Simply cut three slices, and serve the center one first.

SUMMARY: Beat the cream cheese, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until it is smooth. Add confectioner's sugar. Spread the cream over the tart crust. Arrange the cut strawberries on top of the cream. Prepare the red currant glaze. Brush the glaze onto the strawberries using a pastry brush and refrigerate the tart for 1 to 6 hours. Remove the tart from the tin and place it onto a plate, just before serving.

Sit at a table with your elbows on the table. Be sure you have on a shirt that is tucked in (any sleeve length is acceptable). You may even want to ask them to provide the coin, but warn them that you're going to make it disappear and they won't get it back. With both elbows on the table, holding the coin in your right hand, rub it against your left forearm. Pretend to fumble and accidentally drop the coin on the table next to your arm so that you audience sees it. Pick it up with your right hand and tell them that it works better with the other arm. Pretend to put the coin in your left hand, but really keep it concealed in your right hand. Pretending that the coin is in your hand, rub your left hand against your right forearm. Be sure that you make eye contact and chat with your audience while you are performing the trick. That will distract them and make them more likely to miss the sleight of hand. Because both of your elbows are on the table still, your right hand (with the coin in it) should be even with the collar of your shirt. While you are distracting your audience by talking to them and pretending to rub the coin on your arm, drop the coin in your shirt.
