Q: Soften the paint by soaking it with some hot, soapy water or a stronger solvent. Gently cover the paint with a soapy water mixture made of 1 cup (240ml) of hot water and 141 teaspoon (1.24.9ml) of mild dish soap. You could also use a solvent such as vinegar, acetone, or WD-40. Put the soapy water in a spray bottle so you can easily spritz your carpet. Allow the solvent to sit on the paint for approximately 20 minutes. Use a putty knife or some sort of blade to push down into the carpet, and scrape away at the paint. Continue to add your solvent solution and scrape away at the paint. Every once in a while, blot the area with a clean towel to absorb any dissolved and loosened paint. Remember, try to scrape from the outside of the stain toward the center. You don't want to spread the paint any further from the spot that is already stained. If there is a lot of paint on your carpet, use a stiff-bristled brush to loosen the paint. If the paint is particularly stubborn, consider using a steam iron to steam the stained area from above. Don't place the iron on the paint and carpet. Simply hold the iron over the carpet and allow the steam to further loosen the paint. If steam doesn't work, use a harsher product like acetone or hydrogen peroxide. Continue to use a putty knife to scrape away at the paint. Use clean paper towels or rags to blot the area dry. You could also lay a few layers of towels or rags over the affected area, place a heavy object on top of the towels, and allow the area to dry overnight. Once the area is completely dried, consider vacuuming the area to pick up any loose pieces of paint either onto of the carpet, or in between the carpet fibers.
A: Saturate and loosen the paint. Scrape at the paint stain. Add steam to the stain. Dry the area.

Article: If you cannot release the skin from the zipper at home or if you feel unqualified to do so, seek medical attention. If the patient is hysterical, ask the doctor to provide adequate sedation or pain medication to calm the patient enough that the injury can be treated. If the patient is calm enough, sedation may not be needed and local anesthesia may be enough (see below). In order to treat the injury, the doctor may need to cut off the pants, leaving only the zipper around the skin. This will allow a better view of the entrapment and minimizes further injury, such as the weight of the pants pulling on the skin. A local anesthetic (such as lidocaine) or a topical anesthetic (such as EMLA cream) may be applied to numb the skin locally and facilitate its release from the zipper. Dorsal penile block can also be used but is typically saved for difficult entrapments only or those involving a large area of skin. Note: the benefits of a local anesthetic should be weighed against the injection itself and any additional pain resulting from that. This helps reduce friction and can ease the release of the skin. Let the oil soak for about 15 minutes. The skin may be removed in a few different ways depending on where the skin is entrapped. When skin is caught between the teeth, the doctor may cut the zipper above or below the site where the entrapment is and gently pull the teeth apart to release the skin. If the entrapment is within the sliding part of the zipper, the skin is released by cutting the median bar (the small bridge between the anterior and posterior faceplates) to allow the faceplates to fall apart and the entrapped skin to be released. If the skin cannot be freed otherwise, the use of an elliptical skin incision or an emergency circumcision will be performed by an urologist under general anesthesia.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Go to the emergency room. Ask for a sedative or a painkiller (if needed). Allow access the operation site. Ask for a local anesthesia. Ask to cover the area with mineral oil. Allow the doctor to release the skin from the zipper. Talk to the doctor if an elliptical skin incision or emergency circumcision is needed (only if necessary).

Problem: Article: Find a leave-in conditioner that works best for your type of hair. If you are prone to frizzy or dry hair, choose one specifically made to handle frizzy hair. For oil prone hair, look for lighter solutions. Mix a quarter cup of leave-in conditioner with equal parts water and 24 tablespoons (29.659.1ml) of oil. Using coconut oil may leave an unwanted scent in your hair. If you have dry hair that is prone to breakage, you should moisturize your scalp on a daily basis. Gently spray over the top of your head to make your hair damp with moisturizer. With oily hair, make sure that the ends of your cornrows are also getting oil. Rub each cornrow individually and remember to moisturize your scalp as well. Using this mixture will prevent your hair from getting dry and breaking. Shea butter is another option if you want to use a different product to moisturize your cornrows. Wearing a satin or silk scarf will prevent your hair from being dry and helps maintain volume. Unlike cotton, it will not absorb your hair's natural oils and will allow for less friction between your hair and pillow as you sleep. You can also use a satin or silk pillowcase as an alternative to a head scarf. Satin scarves are also called bonnets or head-wraps. Satin and silk headscarves can be found at beauty salons, certain department stores, or online boutiques.
Summary: Mix leave-in conditioner, oil, and water in a spray bottle. Shake your bottle and spray your cornrows with moisturizer. Gently rub the moisturizer into your cornrows. Wrap your hair in a satin or silk scarf.

Q: If you have sleep paralysis, the area of your brain that detects threats becomes more active and overly sensitive to stimuli. The temporary paralysis is caused by this oversensitivity. To be diagnosed with sleep paralysis, you must be experiencing three of the following primary symptoms: Inability to move: This may feel as if some outside force is causing the paralysis. Feeling fear, dread, or anxiety because of the paralysis Being consciously awake during the paralysis Clear perception of surroundings: You may notice the time, the moonlight coming in through the window, what your partner is wearing and so on. In addition to primary symptoms, you may experience these symptoms: A sense of overwhelming fear and dread A sense of another presence Pressure on the chest Difficulty breathing Laying on your back even if that is not your preferred position Visual, olfactory (smell) or auditory (sound) hallucinations. These may be combined with the sense of another presence. A feeling of impending doom or death Studies estimate that sleep paralysis affects 5 to 40% of the population, affecting men and women of any age group, although most sleep paralysis begins during the teenage years. Risk factors for sleep paralysis include: A family history of sleep paralysis Changing sleep schedules The existence of another sleep disorder like insomnia; narcolepsy; parasomnias such as sleepwalking or sleep talking, confusional arousals, bedwetting and sleep terrors; hypersomnias (excessive sleepiness) A history of depression, anxiety, panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and bipolar disorder. These mental disorders were also associated with some of the more disturbing hallucinations. Sleep related leg cramps and Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS) Medications, including those used to treat anxiety and ADHD Drug and alcohol abuse If you don't notice a reduction in the number of sleep paralysis events within two to four weeks of trying treatment methods or you're losing significant amounts of sleep, talk with your doctor. You may even want to schedule an appointment with a sleep specialist. Sleep paralysis can be a symptom of other underlying sleep conditions or of significant psychiatric problems, but only a physician can make that determination. For example, sleep paralysis can actually be a symptom of narcolepsy, a condition with daytime drowsiness and sudden "attacks" of sleep.
A:
Recognize the primary symptoms. Look for potential symptoms. Consider your risk for sleep paralysis. Know when to see your doctor.
