INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Also, consider how they are saying things. People often have both obvious and subtle changes in their speech patterns when they are lying. Do they take a long time to respond to your questions? This might mean that they are thinking up an excuse or a lie. Do they answer your questions with questions? For example, if you ask where they were, do they ask "why" instead of giving you an answer? They may be stalling to think up an answer or trying to steer the conversation somewhere else. Sentences with contractions are more likely to be truthful. Liars use contractions less frequently and also use more unnecessary words than people who are being honest. Do they refrain from saying "I" a lot? Liars often try to distance themselves from the lie by speaking passively rather than actively. For example, rather than saying "I dropped the glass", they might say,"The glass dropped on the floor". Try to see if their voice is strained, in a lower or higher pitch than normal, or just sounds plain weird for some reason. Liars will often want to get out of the subject as fast as possible. To do this, they may try to quickly change the topic or end the conversation. Skilled liars are good at subtly shifting the focus of the conversation to something they are more comfortable with, while inexperienced liars may be more obvious about it.

SUMMARY: Listen to their words.Listen closely to what they are saying and think about what they are telling you. Listen to how they sound.Lying can be stressful and as a result people often have a different pitch, cadence, or may stutter when they are lying. Notice if they change the subject.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Look in a beauty supply shop for nail hardener, which is a clear, polish-like product. Use the brush applicator to add a coat or 2 of nail hardener to the surface of your nails if they feel especially brittle or damaged. Read the bottle for the recommended drying time before you go out and about. Don't use nail hardener on a regular basis, as they contain some pretty strong chemicals. Squeeze out a pea-sized amount of lotion and rub it into your nails and cuticles. Try to get in the habit of moisturizing them regularly, so your nails can become healthier and stronger. Opt for poultry, low-fat dairy, beans, tofu, and fatty fish. Check the nutrition label to see how many grams of protein are in your food, and try to plan your meals with protein in mind. Ideally, eat 0.8 grams (0.028oz) of protein for every 1kg (2.2lb) that you weigh. For instance, if you weigh 180 pounds (82kg), you need to have 65 grams (2.3oz) of protein each day. Protein helps nourish and strengthen your nails. If you have especially brittle nails, ask a healthcare professional if biotin supplements are an option for you. If your doctor recommends it, take the specified dose of supplements as per the product label. You can also try eating biotin-rich foods, like salmon, sunflower seeds, or beef liver. The average dose for biotin supplements is usually between 30 to 100 mcg for teens and adults.

SUMMARY: Apply a coat of nail hardener to strengthen your nails. Moisturize your nails and cuticles with lotion on a daily basis. Add healthy, high-quality protein to your diet. Take biotin supplements.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you haven't already done so, use a sharp cutting knife to cut a circle around the pumpkin's stem. Make sure the lid is wide enough for your hand to fit through comfortably. Remove the lid once you're done cutting it. As you're scooping out the seeds, place the seeds and pulp in a bowl big enough to hold everything. Remove large pieces of pulp from the seeds as you're placing them in the bowl, but don't worry about separating every single string. If you're removing the seeds from a smaller pumpkin, you may not need as large of a bowl.

SUMMARY:
Remove the top of the pumpkin to access the seeds. Place all of the seeds and pulp in a large bowl.
