Answer: The sun produces 3 types of ultraviolet (UV) rays -- UVA, UVB, and UVC rays. UVB rays can burn your skin, while UVA rays cause premature aging, such as wrinkles and dark spots. Both UVA and UVB rays can increase your chances of skin cancer. For the best protection, you should use a sunscreen that protects against both types of rays, so check the label to ensure that it provides full- or broad-spectrum protection. A sunscreen's SPF measures how well it protects your skin from UVB rays compared to not wearing it. For example, if it normally takes 20 minutes for your skin to turn red, a product with SPF 15 will typically prevent sunburn for 15 times longer. You should use a product that has an SPF of at least 15. If you're only going to be spending a few minutes here and there in the sun, using a face moisturizer or aftershave with SPF 15 is usually sufficient to protect your skin from burning. If you're extremely active and plan to spend most of the day outside, a water-resistant sunscreen with a higher SPF, such as SPF 30, is a better option. For pale, sensitive skin that burns easily, it's best to use a sunscreen with an SPF 50. Sunscreens become less effective as they age, so it's important to use one that's still able to protect your skin. A date is usually printed somewhere on the bottle that indicates when the sunscreen should be used by, so always check to ensure that it's still good to use. Most sunscreens are good for approximately three years after you purchase it. Because you need to reapply regularly, you'll probably use up a tube or bottle long before it expires. If you don't apply enough sunscreen, you won't get the full benefits, and may wind up burning. For the best protection, you need 1 ounce, or a shot glass full, of sunscreen to cover your entire body, including your face, ears, and scalp. Make sure to apply your sunscreen 30 minutes before you plan to go outside, so the ingredients have enough time to absorb into your skin. Some sunscreens may recommend a specific amount to apply. Always consult the label to ensure that you're applying enough. If you are going to be in the sun for a prolonged period of time, your sunscreen is going to wear off, putting you at risk for sunburn. To keep your skin protected, you must reapply every two hours when you're in the sun. If you're swimming or sweating a lot, towel off and immediately reapply. Because you need to reapply on a regular basis, you can expect to use to of an 8 ounce bottle of sunscreen if you spend a long day at the beach. Always be sure to have enough sunscreen on hand for reapplication. Spray sunscreens are often easier to reapply, so they're a better option when you're on the go. If you wear makeup, powder sunscreens are usually most convenient for reapplication because they won't disturb your foundation, concealer, or other face products the way that a lotion or cream sunscreen does.

Answer: You probably won't be getting much sleep the night you go out. You could end up at an after-party with the band or doing karaoke with the DJ's aunt. Either way, you are probably not going to sleep early. Drinking also interferes with your ability to get R.E.M. sleep, so you probably won't rest well when you finally do get to bed. Getting plenty of rest before going out drinking is essential. If you know you're going to go big this weekend, make sure you get adequate sleep during the weekdays to prepare. A night of drinking can disrupt your ability to stay focused, solve problems, and do complex tasks long afterwards. For example, drinking five or more drinks in a night can affect your brain and body for up to three days. If you're planning to go out drinking, it's best not to choose a night that's right before a test, major work project, etc. Taking a break now and then from drinking as an activity can also be a good idea. For example, designating one weekend a month as an alcohol-free period can help you rest and recover. If you drink on an empty stomach, you will feel the effects of alcohol much faster, which can mean your night ends too soon. If you eat well and drink plenty of water before going out drinking, your body will slow its absorption of the alcohol you drink. Eating beforehand stops you from feeling drunk as fast, but your body will still metabolize all of the alcohol eventually. In other words, you will still be affected by the alcohol, but you will not feel it as quickly. Good choices of foods and drink to consume beforehand include bread, meat, cheese, pasta, milk, etc. (all foods which will be digested slowly and/or are high in protein). Continuing to eat protein-rich foods while drinking will also slow your body's absorption of alcohol. If you can, carry healthy snacks in your backpack, purse, or close by incase you need a snack to slow down alcohol absorption. Alcohol can impair your decision-making abilities, so it is a good idea to agree upon a plan for the night before going out. Make sure you and any friends joining you agree on where and when to go, and when to return. Make sure that everyone will have a safe way home at the end of the night. Sticking to a plan like this will help keep anyone from getting lost or separated and from winding up in a dangerous place or situation. If anyone will need a vehicle during the night, make sure that someone serves as the designated driver, or that a taxi or public transportation can be arranged. Protect yourself and others. Don't drink and drive. It can be easy to lose things when you are drinking, since alcohol can impair your judgment and short-term memory. Bars, clubs, and other locations can also be crowded, increasing the risk of loss or theft. To prevent this, leave unnecessary valuables at home and keep a close eye on personal items such as a wallet or purse.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Place the dollar bill into a water basin that is full of water. Dribble a little bit of kitchen soap into the area where the bill is in the basin. Use a bristle brush to gently rub the bill with the soapy water. Turn the bill over when you have rubbed the bill's front side with the brush, and lay the back side of the bill face down in the same basin. Remove the bill when both sides have been "cleaned". Iron the bill out with an iron and ironing board. Iron the opposite side of the bill out. Finish up.

Answer:
It doesn't have to be super full, but must be able to fully coat the entire bill from one end to the other. The basin though, has to have a flat bottom for this fix to hold. It doesn't matter what side the bill is placed in the basin with, for the side facing you, however, for simplicity, start with the front side facing you first. Be careful of the temperature of the water. Although the water should be warm, it should never be scalding hot, as this could cause the bill to loose color. About a teaspoon or two might be enough. Two teaspoons will make it stiffer yet, but even closer to brand new than just the one teaspoon. Rub the bill from one end to the other. Don't apply too much pressure that the bill's ink begins to come off, otherwise it will have no legal tender on it. Apply enough pressure, like you were brushing your hair- steady pressure running up and down the bill. Rub the bill in circles with the bristle brush. Never rub straight across otherwise the bill's ink will smear and that's not good! Repeat the process with the bristles to the back side of the bill. The soap helps restore the crispness that the bill once had when it came from the factory. Listen for the little "ticks"; these ticking sounds are the water droplets evaporating from the newly washed bill. Again, the side you begin with really doesn't matter. Don't ever spray any of the water from the iron onto the bill, unless the iron is sticking to the bill for some reason. The bill should now look closer to new than it once was.
