Problem: Article: Look for clean facilities with healthy-looking animals and readily available documentation regarding the breeds of turtles offered. Well-established pet stores are usually safe choices, although the selection of species they offer may be limited. Private sellers and breeders are another option, but should be dealt with more cautiously. The illegal sale of wild turtles is surprisingly common. Sellers who are reluctant to provide information about their turtles' breeding should be avoided. The sale and purchase of some species of wild turtles is illegal. Furthermore, wild-caught turtles are more likely to be unhealthy in captivity, and removing turtles from their natural habitat can harm wild turtle populations. If you are purchasing a turtle from a private breeder, be sure to ask for verification that the turtle has been bred in captivity. If they can't provide you with verification, assume that the turtle is not suitable for purchase as a pet. While it may be tempting to select a turtle based on their appearance, you should pay much more attention to the care requirements (especially the temperature and food requirements) of each species. For instance, if a turtle is native to a climate much hotter or cooler than the one in which you live, you may have a hard time maintaining the proper temperature for it to thrive. Another important consideration is the adult size of each turtle species. Some species grow to a larger size than others, and you may end up with a turtle who eventually outgrows the habitat you prepare for it. Ask the seller for assistance and recommendations, but be sure to verify the information with credible independent sources. Misconceptions are common, even among pet dealers. When choosing a turtle, ensure that it has clear eyes and is responsive and reasonably active. A turtle that has swollen or cloudy eyes, or shows signs of a runny nose is probably sick. Unless it is of a soft-shell species, it should have a firm shell (though cracks and pits are not necessarily a sign that anything is wrong). A turtle that appears to be gasping through its mouth, or makes a wheezing sound when it breathes, is probably sick. Especially if you are considering owning multiple turtles some day, it is important to be able to identify your turtle's sex. Otherwise, you may end up with unexpected babies. Here are some clues to look for: A male turtle typically has a slightly concave underside, while a female turtle's underside is usually flat or slightly bulging. In many species, an adult female will be larger than a male. In some species, such as red-eared or painted turtles, males will have slightly longer fingernails than females. The sex of a turtle can be hard to identify. The seller may be able to help you. If you purchase more than one turtle at first, you may find yourself overwhelmed and unable to properly care for all of them. Once you are comfortable caring for your turtle, you can consider purchasing more. Multiple turtles kept in the same tank may not get along. They may become aggressive to each other, requiring them to be separated. Keep in mind also that two turtles will require double the space and water filtration. If you do decide to keep multiple turtles in the same tank, ensure that they are roughly the same size. A larger turtle can hurt a smaller one if it becomes aggressive.
Summary: Purchase from a reputable seller. Buy only captive-bred turtles. Choose a species carefully. Choose a healthy turtle. Identify the turtle's sex. Start with just one turtle.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: To ease the removal of nail glue from your fingers or hand, you must first soften the adhesive. Fill a basin with warm water. Submerge your fingertips or entire hand into the water. Soak the affected area for two minutes. Remove any glue the detaches from your nails or skin. Retrieve a nail file, a bottle of acetone, and cotton balls. Carefully run the nail file over your nails to remove large pieces of glue. Do not file your nail down to the skin. Soak a cotton ball in acetone and wipe the saturated swab over your nails and skin. Continue to rub the affected areas with acetone until the glue rolls off your nails and skin. After removing the glue with a nail file and acetone, it is important to wash your hands. Run your hands under warm water. Scrub your hands and fingernails with an exfoliating soap.

SUMMARY: Soak your fingers in warm water. File your nails and apply acetone. Wash your hands thoroughly.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can use a small digital recorder if you have one, or a recording app on your phone. Be sure to place it in an inconspicuous place that is still in a close proximity to the people you want to record. Be aware, however, that recording conversations in order to eavesdrop is illegal in some places and punishable by law. If eavesdropping is your favorite hobby, you might consider purchasing a tool that will allow you to overhear conversations easily. A small device such as the Next Room Eavesdropping Device allows you to amplify conversations through walls and listen through headphones. Very few people have a home telephone now, but if you do live in a house that hasn't yet gone "cell-phone-only," you can pick up another line and listen to the conversation. Make sure you don't breathe too hard or giggle, though! Eavesdropping doesn't always have to be done in person. You can of course check out conversations on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to find out who is talking to whom and what they are saying.
Summary:
Plant a recording device. Purchase a spy tool. Pick up the other line. Employ social media.
